Summary

The Cover 3 crew talks the Big 12, realignment, the NCAA losing power and more. First, what’s the state of the Big 12 in the current realignment environment (1:00) and has the narrative about Big 12 defenses changed with the recent success of teams like Oklahoma State and Baylor (12:00). Then it’s on to Oklahoma State specifically and where they stand in realignment (20:00) before a wide-ranging discussion on the Power Five programs poised to have their best seasons in the last 10 years (24:25). Finally, what brought about the NCAA’s decline in power over college football (42:34) and a question regarding Pitt’s future and whether the Panthers would be a target for Big Ten expansion.
