TULANE IS DEAD! Big 12 SECURES College Football Playoff Spot After Memphis Wins: BYU, Colorado, ASU?

The Big 12 has a clear path to competing in the College Football Playoff (CFP), even as the landscape of college football grows more competitive with the expanded playoff format. While conferences like the SEC and Big Ten often dominate the national conversation, the Big 12's depth, unique style of play, and potential for marquee victories make it a legitimate contender for CFP berths.

Depth of Talent Across the Conference
Unlike conferences dominated by a few elite programs, the Big 12 thrives on parity and competitiveness. Teams like Texas, Oklahoma State, Kansas State, and TCU have shown the ability to contend on the national stage. Newcomers like BYU, Utah, and Colorado add even more depth, ensuring the conference has multiple teams capable of making playoff runs. The balance of power means that a strong team can emerge from anywhere in the league, keeping the CFP conversation alive throughout the season.

Signature Wins and Scheduling Advantages
Big 12 teams often play challenging non-conference schedules, which can bolster their resumes. Wins over top-ranked teams from other conferences or a strong showing in a high-profile matchup can significantly enhance playoff chances. Additionally, the Big 12’s round-robin format ensures that teams must face the best within the league, providing opportunities for quality wins that the CFP committee values.

Embracing the Expanded Format
With the CFP expanding to 12 teams, the Big 12 has a better chance to place multiple teams in the playoff. The conference’s competitive balance means several teams could finish with strong records, making them viable contenders for at-large bids. A team with one or two losses that emerges from the gauntlet of Big 12 play will likely earn respect for their strength of schedule and resilience.

By leaning into its depth, fostering competitive matchups, and embracing the expanded format, the Big 12 can solidify itself as a conference that belongs in the CFP conversation year after year.
