We conclude our Big 12 preview series with our third and final installment, breaking eight more teams and their burning questions headed into 2025. These eight teams represent the conference's intriguing middle tier: Utah, TCU, Kansas, Cincinnati, BYU, Houston, Oklahoma State, and Colorado.
In this college football podcast episode, we break down Utah's offensive makeover with new coordinator Jason Beck and quarterback Devin Dampier, examining whether Kyle Whittingham can bounce back from his first losing season in over a decade. We dive into TCU's brutal schedule despite having one of the conference's best passing attacks with Josh Hoover, and debate whether Kansas can capitalize on the good vibes of their reopened stadium and another year of Jalon Daniels at quarterback.
We discuss Cincinnati's make-or-break year under Scott Satterfield, BYU's quarterback crisis following Jake Retzlaff's late departure, and Oklahoma State's rock-bottom 4.5 win total after Mike Gundy's worst season ever. Plus, we quiet Willie Fritz's steady rebuild at Houston and Colorado's fascinating next chapter without superstars Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter.
Which programs will exceed expectations with new coordinators or transfer quarterbacks? Which will struggle with brutal schedules and roster turnover? And how will the unpredictability of the Big 12's middle tier shake up the conference (and playoff) conversation?
This is your deep dive into the Big 12's most compelling question marks.
