First, it was great to see a Big 12 matchup being featured on ESPN's College GameDay yesterday morning.
The Big 12 is a conference definitely in need of such a spotlight game. Given the defections of the past few years and the increased attention on the SEC and Pac 12 last night's contest between Baylor and Oklahoma State was positive for all involved.
Second, look at the teams! How many years did Baylor and Oklahoma State play in the shadow of OU, UT, Nebraska, and Texas A&M? Nice to see former punching bags playing football at Top 25-level.

This piece from ESPN makes a convincing statement about the Rose Bowl gods forcing Oregon to pay for those comments made by a couple of players last week.
But what about this? Oregon loses to a Pac 12 team that has NEVER made it to The Grandaddy of Them All.
Irony??
