Bigger Than 12: Texas Tech Narrowly Escapes, West Virginia SHOCKS Virginia, & Big 12 Tiers Emerge

Big 12 play is approaching, and the conference is already starting to separate into contenders, question marks, and teams in serious trouble.

Jake Brend and Derek Duke break down the weekend of Big 12 football, starting with Texas Tech’s 28-26 thriller over Houston and what the win means for the Red Raiders, Will Hammond, and their Big 12 championship hopes.

The guys also dive into West Virginia’s stunning upset of Virginia, Michael Hawkins Jr.’s five-touchdown performance, Cam Cook’s huge day, and whether the Mountaineers are a legitimate Big 12 sleeper heading into conference play.

Plus, Colorado gets embarrassed by Northwestern, Cincinnati survives a massive scare against Miami (Ohio), Kansas State moves to 3-0, BYU rolls on the road, UCF loses another quarterback, and Arizona State beats Kansas in an ugly game in London as the Kansas offense continues to struggle.

Iowa State’s 55-7 demolition of Bowling Green gets plenty of attention, including Aiden Flora’s incredible 296 all-purpose yards and the Cyclones making history with a punt return touchdown and kickoff return touchdown in the same game.

Plus, Jake and Derek unveil their latest Big 12 power rankings and make their Week 4 picks for Baylor-Colorado, TCU-UCF, Utah-Iowa State, Arizona-Washington State, Kansas State-Cincinnati, and Oklahoma State-West Virginia.
