Oklahoma State Moves Up Two Spots in AP, Coaches Polls after BYU Comeback Win
The Big 12 Championship will be a Top 20 matchup.
The Cowboys’ comeback moved them back into the Top 20.
Oklahoma State moved up two spots from 21st to 19th in both the AP poll and the US LBM Coaches poll thanks to its 40-34 overtime win over BYU. That means we’ll have a Top 20 matchup for the Big 12 trophy this weekend.
Elsewhere in the league…
Texas remains: The Longhorns jave just kept winning and have remained in the No. 7 spot in the AP the last five weeks.
Oklahoma climbs: The Sooners moved up one spot to 12th in the AP after the shootout win over TCU on Black Friday.
Kansas State drops out: The Wildcats’ upset loss to Iowa State saw them drop from No. 19 out of the ranking. They still received 41 votes in the AP. Kansas received six.
