2022 Heartland College Sports All-Big 12 Football Team
The 2022 regular season is in the books and the Big 12 Championship game is set, with No. 3 TCU (12-0, 9-0) and No. 10 Kansas State (9-3, 7-2) set to do battle in Arlington on Saturday.
This was one of the most unpredictable seasons in recent memory for the Big 12 Conference, as the top four teams from 2021 (Baylor, Oklahoma State, Oklahoma, Iowa State) went a combined 12-24 in conference play. Meanwhile, TCU, who was picked to finish seventh in the Big 12 in the preseason poll, is undefeated and is nearly a lock to be the first Big 12 team to make the College Football Playoff since 2019.
But regardless, we want to now take the time to celebrate and honor the great performers in the Big 12 Conference as the Heartland College Sports staff put together its list for the 2022 All-Big 12 football team. We promise you that no staff in the country has watched more Big 12 football from top-to-bottom than this crew. So here we go with our Heartland College Sports All-Big 12 football team for the 2022 season.
