Summary
Big 12 Basketball is loaded, but there are huge questions atop the conference standings, like who really is the best team in the league?
Heartland College Sports' Pete Mundo and Matthew Postins discuss why we may have to wait until later in the season to get a feel for what the top of this league actually looks like.
We also discussed the week that was in the league, with the best wins, worst losses and who has the best chance to impress coming up this weekend in a busy Saturday that includes a Top 15 match up in Lubbock, Texas.

| 0:48.9 | I'm going to Arizona. |
| 0:50.1 | Where are you out on the Wildcats right now and where this team is as the top team in the country? |

| 1:04.7 | they haven't really been challenged that much so far in conference playing. |
| 1:09.0 | Granted, they haven't played any of the other ranked |
| 1:12.2 | teams in this league to this point, but they're a team that can go nine deep offensively. |
| 1:18.7 | And I think that kind of differentiates them from the rest of the group. |
