BIG 12 SQUAD - Can BYU be the NEXT "Indiana"?

Indiana Hoosiers rise from 3-9 to national champions—can a Big 12 team follow in their footsteps? The panel breaks down which Big 12 programs could replicate Indiana’s stunning blueprint, spotlighting Oklahoma State’s donor-fueled rebuild, Texas Tech’s high-profile transfer portal moves, and Utah’s push for conference supremacy under new expectations.

Key conversations focus on the transfer portal’s biggest impact players like Brendan Sorsby and DJ Lagway, NIL spending wars, and how fresh coaching tenures and roster-building strategies are resetting the standard for “contender” status. The panel debates whether Texas Tech can finally break through, Oklahoma State’s new identity with North Texas stars, and the ever-rising urgency for Big 12 teams to match SEC and Big Ten powerhouses. Can the conference unseat College Football’s top dogs—or is there more heartbreak ahead?
