Big 12 Football: Preseason power rankings for next season
By Austin Lloyd
#3: Oklahoma State Cowboys
Oklahoma State was a team that got its fair share of hype heading into 2020, and the Cowboys did not disappoint. They will also look good in 2021, but that is about it. There will be no title contention, no conference championship game, just a solid squad.
#2: Iowa State Cyclones
I could just go on and on about this team and most readers would probably not mind, as Iowa State is nothing but a great story for college football. Led by head coach Matt Campbell and running back Breece Hall, they were Oklahoma’s biggest challenge in the Big 12 last season and will hold said title for the season to come as well.
#1: Oklahoma Sooners
Surprise! The Oklahoma Sooners will be the best team Big 12 football team in 2021. They have done it so much that they ought as well to be considered a Midwest monopoly at this point. They have some of the best coaches and players in America, and the rest of their league can just not compete. Yes, it really is that simple.
