The Big 12 Championship Game came down to the final game of the regular season to find out who was going to be playing for the league title. And it’s Arizona State vs. Iowa State for an all-but-guaranteed spot in the College Football Playoff next Saturday in Arlington, Texas.
Arizona State smoked Arizona 49-7 and then Iowa State handled K-State 29-21, but both still needed some help along the way to make it happen, with four teams finishing 7-2 atop the Big 12 standings.
But what a first year of the 16-team Big 12. The standings were basically inverted. Arizona State was picked dead last in the Big 12 Preseason Poll. Iowa State was picked to finish 6th. The other two teams to finish 7-2 were picked No. 11 (Colorado) and No. 13 (BYU).
Meantime, teams like Utah and Oklahoma State, two teams picked near the top of the preseason poll, finished near the bottom.
The Big 12 was a thriller of a regular season, but even way more unpredictable than any of us could have imagined.
