Iowa State is a conference win it counts the same. And by 36 points is great. TTech, TCU, Utah, KState, Arizona St to finish.

tbraptors 14 Arizona have a much better resume than their AP poll ranking would show. Their sole loss is to BYU and they have a top 25 win against Cincinnati, after the Bearcats beat Texas Tech.

ResearchFlaky5912 15 Good win on Saturday. Big12 is up generally. Cincinnati is now ranked, boosting their resume. I think their wins, as a whole, are about equal to LSU's wins, but the sole loss to #7 is better than two losses to #11 and #14.

rob_bot13 16 1676 points. It remains crazy to me that this team is struggling to make the top 25 in the AP poll. I think they are well positioned to snag a playoff spot if they can win 1 of Texas Tech or Arizona.

quantum_jedi 18 (56.62, +8) The Wildcats are 6-1 and playing very well! Arizona's only loss is to #9 BYU but they don't really have many strong wins (#35 Cincinnati is the best right now). Regardless, they are beating the schedule in front of them and looking like a strong contender in the Big12.
