  • GOOD: Big 12 HAMMERS Colorado For Anti-BYU, Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Chant

    GOOD: Big 12 HAMMERS Colorado For Anti-BYU, Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Chant
    Oct 1 2025
    The Big 12 Conference has issued a $50,000 fine and a public reprimand to the University of Colorado for inappropriate and derogatory fan chants that occurred during the football game against Brigham Young University (BYU). Key Details of the Incident: The Game: The incident took place at Folsom Field in Boulder during the Colorado vs. BYU football game on Saturday, September 27, 2025. The Violation: The fine was levied due to hateful and discriminatory language, specifically religious slurs directed at BYU and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS), the church that sponsors BYU. The chants were audible during the game. The Penalty: Big 12 Commissioner Brett Yormark issued the fine, stating that "Hateful and discriminatory language has no home in the Big 12 Conference," and that the league maintains "zero tolerance for such behavior." The Response: The University of Colorado, including Chancellor Justin Schwartz and Athletic Director Rick George, issued a statement condemning the behavior, calling it "deeply disappointing" and not reflective of the university's values of respect and inclusion. Coach Deion Sanders also publicly apologized to BYU during his weekly news conference. This move reinforces the Big 12's policy of penalizing member institutions for fan behavior that violates the conference's Principles and Standards of Sportsmanship.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!5-Hour ENERGYEnough with boring, flavorless caffeine, it’s time to give your caffeine a flavor upgrade with 5-hour ENERGY®️ shots.

  • ROBBED: BYU, Iowa State, Utah Disrespected By AWFUL AP Poll Voters, Don't Watch College Football

    ROBBED: BYU, Iowa State, Utah Disrespected By AWFUL AP Poll Voters, Don't Watch College Football
    Sep 30 2025
    The complaint that the Associated Press (AP) Poll "neglects" the Big 12 Conference is a recurring and widely discussed topic among college football fans and analysts. This perception stems from several systemic issues within the poll's dynamics, which often seem to favor the "blue blood" programs of the SEC and Big Ten.Here is an analysis of how the AP Poll is perceived to neglect or undervalue the Big 12:1. The Brand Name and Preseason Anchoring EffectReliance on Reputation: The preseason AP Poll is heavily based on brand recognition and historical success. Conferences like the SEC and Big Ten have traditional powers (Alabama, Georgia, Ohio State) that consistently start in the top 10, regardless of heavy roster turnover.The New Big 12's Challenge: With the departures of traditional powerhouses like Texas and Oklahoma, the new Big 12 is fighting an uphill battle for national respect. The new members are strong programs (like BYU, Utah, Arizona State), but they often lack the same national "brand" pull with voters to crack the top-10 initially. This "anchoring" effect means Big 12 teams must work harder to climb. 2. The "Quality Loss" vs. "Cannibalization" Dynamic SEC/Big Ten Benefit: When a highly-ranked SEC or Big Ten team loses to another highly-ranked conference foe, the loss is often framed as a "quality loss." The losing team might drop a few spots, but their overall ranking remains relatively high because they lost to a "good team" in a "tough conference."Big 12 Penalty: The Big 12 is often characterized by extreme parity and "cannibalization," where nearly any team can beat another on a given Saturday. While this makes for great football, AP voters often punish Big 12 teams more severely for losses, causing them to drop out of the poll entirely, or severely reduce the ranking of the team that beat them. This cycle devalues the conference's wins and perceived overall strength. 3. Lower Ceiling in the Polls Depth vs. Top-Heavy: In recent polls, the Big 12 often has a good number of teams ranked (or just outside the Top 25), showing its deep competition. However, they frequently lack representation in the elite top-5 or top-10 tier compared to the SEC and Big Ten. Narrative of the "Fourth Best Conference": The AP poll's initial rankings and subsequent movements often reflect a national media narrative that places the Big 12 as the third or fourth-best conference. This lower initial ranking means Big 12 teams have less margin for error; one loss can knock them out of the poll entirely, whereas an SEC team can sustain a loss and still be ranked due to their starting position. In summary, the perception of Big 12 neglect is less about a lack of competitive teams and more about how the AP Poll's traditional voting habits—driven by brand, history, and the valuation of "quality losses"—disadvantage a conference built on competitive balance and new memberships. For the Big 12, an undefeated season often yields a lower ranking than a comparable record in the SEC or Big Ten.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!5-Hour ENERGYEnough with boring, flavorless caffeine, it’s time to give your caffeine a flavor upgrade with 5-hour ENERGY®️ shots.

  • BIG 12 POWER RANKINGS: BYU Climbs, Utah Soars, Texas Tech Holds, Iowa State Elite, West Virginia Meh

    BIG 12 POWER RANKINGS: BYU Climbs, Utah Soars, Texas Tech Holds, Iowa State Elite, West Virginia Meh
    Sep 29 2025
    The Big 12 proved its status as one of college football's most competitive and volatile leagues this weekend, featuring a slate packed with razor-thin margins, major comebacks, and immediate shake-ups to the conference hierarchy.The most intense competition came in the two one-score thrillers that defined the Saturday atmosphere. The rivalry game between No. 25 BYU and Colorado went down to the wire, with the Cougars just holding on for a 24-21 victory in a game that was close throughout, highlighting the difficulty of securing a win in the Big 12's new landscape. Even more dramatic was the finish in Lawrence, where newcomer Cincinnati secured a stunning road win against Kansas with a late touchdown drive, topping the Jayhawks 37-34.Friday night set the tone, with Arizona State mounting a massive comeback from a 17-0 deficit to edge out TCU 27-24, proving that no lead is safe in the conference. Another major test of competitiveness came from the Kansas State Wildcats, who defeated previously undefeated UCF 34-20 in a game that saw K-State pull away late, but only after a tense battle for control in the third quarter.While some games resulted in larger margins, such as No. 14 Iowa State's impressive 39-14 win over Arizona and Utah's 48-14 bounce-back against West Virginia, the overall narrative was one of parity. The close finishes and significant comebacks underscored the league's competitive balance, where every week presents a legitimate challenge, and the race for the Big 12 Championship is truly wide open. This weekend emphatically showed that in the new Big 12, every victory must be earned.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!5-Hour ENERGYEnough with boring, flavorless caffeine, it’s time to give your caffeine a flavor upgrade with 5-hour ENERGY®️ shots.

    HUGE WEEK: BYU STUNS Colorado, Utah Elite Again, Iowa State Rolls, Kansas State Back, Arizona State?
    Sep 28 2025
    Chaos Reigns: BYU Thriller Highlights Wild Big 12 Weekend The Big 12 delivered a thrilling and unpredictable slate of games this Saturday, headlined by upsets, nail-biting finishes, and commanding performances that have dramatically reshaped the early conference standings.The weekend's drama peaked in Boulder, where the No. 25 BYU Cougars held off a late surge from Colorado to win a heart-stopping 24-21 contest. Freshman QB Bear Bachmeier and the BYU defense secured the victory, surviving a fierce effort from the Buffaloes in the rivalry rematch.Meanwhile, the newcomers to the league continued to make noise. Cincinnati stunned Kansas in a high-scoring affair in Lawrence, winning 37-34 after a late go-ahead touchdown drive with just 29 seconds on the clock, dropping the Jayhawks to 1-1 in Big 12 play.The biggest statement of the day came from No. 14 Iowa State, which thoroughly dismantled an undefeated Arizona team with a dominant 39-14 victory. QB Rocco Becht accounted for three rushing touchdowns as the Cyclones look like a legitimate conference contender.On the flip side, the preseason favorite Utah Utes bounced back from last week's loss by rolling over an injury-plagued West Virginia team in a 48-14 rout. Other key results saw Baylor pull off a decisive 45-27 road win over Oklahoma State, and Kansas State get their first conference victory, defeating previously undefeated UCF 34-20.With the dust settled, the Big 12 race is wide open, confirming its status as one of college football's most compelling and chaotic conferences.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!5-Hour ENERGYEnough with boring, flavorless caffeine, it’s time to give your caffeine a flavor upgrade with 5-hour ENERGY®️ shots.

    MIRACLE: BYU STUNS Colorado, Deion Sanders On Road, Utah Fans SILENCED, Bear Bachmeier is ELITE???
    Sep 28 2025
    No. 25 BYU Edges Colorado 24-21 in Nail-Biting Big 12 Battle The No. 25 BYU Cougars escaped Boulder with a thrilling and hard-fought 24-21 victory over the Colorado Buffaloes in a dramatic Saturday night Big 12 contest at Folsom Field. In a game that served as a heated rematch of the previous season's Alamo Bowl, the Cougars demonstrated their resilience, overcoming an early deficit and fighting off a late Colorado surge to remain undefeated. Game Summary Colorado came out firing, leaning heavily on the explosiveness of quarterback Kaidon Salter and wide receiver Dre'lon Miller to take an early lead. Miller, lining up at the wildcat, scored one of the Buffs' initial touchdowns, helping Colorado jump out to a 14-3 lead in the first quarter.However, the BYU offense, led by true freshman quarterback Bear Bachmeier, found its rhythm late in the first half. Bachmeier orchestrated a crucial touchdown drive, capped by a 5-yard scoring pass to Chase Roberts just before the break, narrowing the deficit to 14-10.The second half was a back-and-forth defensive struggle that saw the lead change hands multiple times:BYU Takes the Lead: The Cougars struck first in the third quarter. Facing a 4th-and-2, Bachmeier hit Roberts again for a 4-yard touchdown pass, giving BYU its first lead of the night at 17-14.Colorado Responds: The Buffaloes quickly answered, with Salter connecting with Miller for a 19-yard touchdown pass to retake the lead, 21-17, heading into the final quarter.The Go-Ahead Score: BYU delivered the decisive blow early in the fourth quarter. Wide receiver Cody Hagen took a rushing attempt 32 yards for a touchdown, putting the Cougars back on top, 24-21. Defensive Climax In the game's final minutes, the BYU defense proved to be the difference-maker. As Colorado attempted a potential game-winning or game-tying drive, linebacker Isaiah Glasker sealed the victory with a late interception of Kaidon Salter. Glasker, who was the Defensive MVP of the teams' previous bowl matchup, cemented the win by ensuring the Buffaloes never got a final shot at a field goal.The hard-earned victory improves No. 25 BYU's record and provides a crucial road win as they navigate the tough waters of the Big 12 Conference. For Colorado, it was a bitter loss, highlighting their continued fight under Coach Prime but leaving them just short of a major upset.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!5-Hour ENERGYEnough with boring, flavorless caffeine, it’s time to give your caffeine a flavor upgrade with 5-hour ENERGY®️ shots.

  • WOW: TCU's Gary Patterson Drops TRUTH BOMB Over Mike Gundy Being Fired By Oklahoma State, Big 12 Tie

    WOW: TCU's Gary Patterson Drops TRUTH BOMB Over Mike Gundy Being Fired By Oklahoma State, Big 12 Tie
    Sep 27 2025
    The firing of Mike Gundy from Oklahoma State marks the end of a remarkable, yet recently tumultuous, era. As the winningest coach in program history, his dismissal only three games into the 2025 season sent shockwaves through the college football world. The Breakdown of the Firing Timing and Immediate Cause:Gundy was officially fired on Tuesday, September 23, 2025, after a disappointing 1-2 start to the 2025 season.The final straw appeared to be a stunning home loss to in-state rival Tulsa, a program Gundy had never lost to during his tenure.The loss to Tulsa immediately followed an embarrassing 69-3 blowout defeat at the hands of the Oregon Ducks.The Bigger Picture: Two Seasons of Decline: The decision was ultimately based on a downward trend that began well before the 2025 season:The 2024 Collapse: The team finished the 2024 season with a terrible 3-9 overall record, including their first winless conference record in 30 years and a season-ending 52-0 blowout loss to Colorado.The Losing Streak: When he was fired, Oklahoma State was on an 11-game losing streak against FBS opponents, which was unacceptable for a program Gundy had elevated to a national contender.Failure to Adapt to Modern CFB: Gundy had publicly struggled to fully embrace the new era of college football, especially the Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) landscape and the Transfer Portal. He had made comments indicating reluctance toward aggressive NIL strategies, leading to concerns from the administration and donors about the program's competitiveness.The Legacy and The Cost:The Winningest Coach: Gundy was the quintessential Cowboy, a former OSU quarterback who led the program for over 20 seasons, accumulating 170 career wins and multiple 10-win seasons. He took the program to heights previously unseen, including a Big 12 Championship in 2011.The Buyout: Oklahoma State will pay Gundy a $15 million buyout, an amount that was reportedly restructured last offseason (it was originally much higher) in what may have been an attempt to create an "off-ramp" for his departure.Interim Coach: Offensive coordinator Doug Meacham was named the interim head coach for the remainder of the 2025 season.The dismissal signals that the administration and key financial supporters prioritized a change in direction and a renewed commitment to competing at the highest level, even if it meant moving on from the most successful coach in school history.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!5-Hour ENERGYEnough with boring, flavorless caffeine, it’s time to give your caffeine a flavor upgrade with 5-hour ENERGY®️ shots.

  • HUGE: Gary Patterson, Mack Brown Have BOLD Top 25 Takes, BYU Into Poll, Utah Drops Out, Big 12 Good?

    HUGE: Gary Patterson, Mack Brown Have BOLD Top 25 Takes, BYU Into Poll, Utah Drops Out, Big 12 Good?
    Sep 26 2025

    Week 5 is a colossal proving ground for the Big 12, with a stacked slate of conference games ready to redefine the league's championship picture. The biggest game on the docket is the Friday night showcase: No. 24 TCU at Arizona State. This clash of undefeated TCU (3-0) and reigning conference champion Arizona State (3-1) is critical. TCU's high-octane offense, led by QB Josh Hoover, faces an aggressive Sun Devils defense hoping to protect their seven-game home win streak. The winner gains a major early advantage in the race for the Big 12 Championship Game. Another pivotal matchup is the battle of undefeated newcomers and veterans: Arizona at No. 14 Iowa State. Arizona (3-0) boasts a top-10 scoring defense, providing a stark challenge for the Cyclones (4-0) and veteran QB Rocco Becht. A Wildcats road upset would validate their early success, while an Iowa State victory solidifies their status as a conference frontrunner. The league will also be watching two major storylines: The Utes' Desperation: Preseason favorite Utah, reeling from a brutal loss to Texas Tech, must travel to West Virginia for a crucial contest to avoid an 0-2 start. The New Era: Baylor visits Oklahoma State for the Cowboys' first game without Mike Gundy patrolling the sidelines, following the head coach's recent departure. Finally, the late-night game No. 25 BYU at Colorado offers a thrilling rivalry with CFP implications for the undefeated Cougars. With multiple undefeated teams still standing, Week 5 is set to separate the contenders from the pretenders in the new Big 12.

    Most UNDERRATED and OVERRATED Big 12 Teams, Drake Toll On ESPN 960 with Ben Criddle
    Sep 26 2025

    Utah was widely considered a strong favorite and a potential Big 12 title contender entering their first season in the conference, but their play—especially in conference games—has been profoundly disappointing.

    The core of the disappointment stems from the 2024 season's final record and poor conference standing.

    Losing Record and Conference Woes: Utah finished the 2024 season with a losing record of 5–7 overall and a highly disappointing 2–7 in Big 12 play. They failed to become bowl-eligible, a shocking outcome for a program that had established itself as a perennial 9+ win team and two-time Pac-12 champion.

    Offensive Struggles: The team's biggest issue was the offense, which was historically ineffective. Their scoring offense ranked 14th out of 16 teams in the Big 12 conference statistics. This was primarily attributed to a crippling wave of quarterback injuries throughout the season, which derailed any chance of offensive rhythm and forced them to use four different quarterbacks.

    Inability to Close Games: They suffered several close, winnable losses in conference play to teams like TCU, Houston, and a heartbreaking defeat to rival BYU.

    The Irony of the Defense: The disappointment is magnified by the fact that their defense remained elite, finishing 5th in the Big 12 in scoring defense (and 2nd overall for the entire season in the conference). The defense performed at a championship level, but the offense could not consistently hold up its end.

    Heading into the 2025 season, the narrative of disappointment has recently been highlighted by a stunning home loss to Texas Tech. After a strong 3-0 start, the Utes were blown out 34-10 in their first ranked conference matchup of the year, with the offense again sputtering and committing four turnovers. This performance has dropped Utah out of the AP Top 25 and reignited concerns about the program's offensive identity and ability to compete against the new Big 12's best teams.
