Big 12 and Bowl Games

[husker_football_fan]

All year we hear just how tough the Big 12 is, then comes bowl games and yet again, the Big 12 gets hammered. Eight teams played in Bowls, two won. Maybe the Big 12 is not as strong as we think? Kansas was really the only one who had a huge up hill battle. The others had good shots at winning their bowl and only Nebraska did, even though they had no offense just good deffense. Whats going on?

Whats going on?There's too much parity now due to scholarship reductions, so any team can get beat on a given day. It's a lot like the NFL. You just never know anymore.

Plus the fact that these teams have an entire month off before their final game. It's hard to stay focused and be on top of your game when you have that amount of time off. Hey! I know!! How about a playoff system?!? :) :) :)

Eight out of 12 teams from one conference making bowls ain't bad. They would probably have won more bowl games but since it is a tough conference probably the teams were beat up after the conference schedule and weaker teams were able to beat them in bowls. Plus the officiating could have been better.

Texas Tech won their bowl game 38-14 over Navy! Guns up! :)
