I really don't think that the Big XII tries too hard anymore.
Forget for a second their twisted logic in who they are sending to the Big XII title game from the southern division...no wait, don't forget that. They sent the team (Oklahoma) that beat the team (Texas Tech) that beat Texas, instead of sending Texas who beat Oklahoma. And why? Because the conference's fifth tie breaker is who is ranked higher in the BCS standings.
And let's be honest, the BCS is pretty reliable....right?
Now, the league has released their All-Conference teams in which Texas quarterback Colt McCoy was named 2nd Team All-Big XII behind Oklahoma's Sam Bradford. Texas Tech's Graham Harrell, while getting votes, wasn't good enough to make the cut. It's arguable whether Bradford or McCoy should be first team as the two are about to slug it out again for the Heisman very soon. But, if McCoy was only the second best quarterback in the league, then how exactly was he also named the Big XII Player of the Year?
ESPN.com says 'go figure'....showing even more that the entire world is giving up on the Big XII a little more everyday.
Nonsense.
