As crazy as it sounds, the Nebraska Cornhuskers are now sitting in the catbird seat of the Big 12—a conference that over the past decade has occupied a spot in the national title game a solid seven times. As for reference, those seven times include: 2000—Oklahoma vs. Florida State: OU took ...Published on: 22nd October, 2010
Week 8 in the Big 12 Conference is a huge week that pits four of its six BCS ranked teams squaring off against each other. This weekend's matchups should go a long ways in giving us a solid preview of who will end up playing in this year's Big 12 Championship ...Published on: 20th October, 2010
Just last week, the Huskers National Championship hopes hit a brick wall with their uninspiring loss to their decade long 'daddy' Texas Longhorns. Can the Huskers regroup and tame the undefeated Cowboys in Stillwater? Something they have never done in Big 12 conference play? Darn good question.

Short and sweet. HERE.. WE... GO! Oklahoma vs. Florida State: Big game. Lots of noise. Oklahoma has the better defense, they are at home, and will score on a still-suspect Seminole defense. OU 34, FSU 21 Texas vs. Wyoming: Time for Texas to regroup a bit. Wyoming is bad. Really bad. 'Horns in a rout from beginning ...Published on: 8th September, 2010
The Big 12 went a solid 11-1 in non-conference play in Week 1, but it was hardly a solid week as far as the conference is concerned. Some ugly wins coupled with an embarrassing loss to an FCS opponent pretty much tell the story. However, we should give each team their ...Published on: 1st September, 2010
