In B12 related news-- what the heck happened to Oklahoma State?  From playing in the B12 CCG in 2023, to 0-9 in conference in 2024.  That's just brutal.

In Big 12 news, do you think oSu fires Mike Gundy?  I have no idea how they feel in Stillwater. His overall record is not bad, he’s had several 10+ win seasons, and has been a good fit for them.

I wouldn't fire him.
I'd let him know the contract wasn't going to be extended another year and he wasn't going to get the annual raise
putting him on the hot seat

preseason ranking of #17
nearly as bad as FSU @ #10

Sooners were preseason #16
Utah was #12
Arizona @ #21

once you consider what that league is now iowa state's success isn't that surprising. who in that league can they not compete with? i would argue nobody.

as for gundy i wouldn't do a damn thing - it's his first losing season since his first.

Neal out at WV. Rumors swirling that Jimbo Fisher is being considered. He’s from WV originally. Wonder if he even needs a paycheck, considering that we’re paying him $9MM+ to not coach football.

not a paycheck, that might jeopardize his payments from A&M

just some spending cash under the table, some perks, and some vacation time in Aruba

Nope, our genius former AD, whose now at Ohio State, set it up he gets paid no matter what. Even if he takes a new job.

Not sure how this works, but I’m under the impression that Ohio St will still make the playoffs.  I assume they’ll not get a bye, but get somebody like Boise St, win, and proceed to go deep.  Hell, they might win the whole thing.  I wouldn’t count Day out yet.

not enough 1-loss teams to keep them out

Yup.  Lots of 2-loss and even 3-loss teams among the usual suspects.
