Chase Daniel, Sam Bradford, and Colt McCoy are every bit as good as, if not better than, Tim Tebow, John Parker Wilson, and Matt Stafford. And don't think for a second that the World's Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party holds supremacy over the Red River Rivalry.
Also, the Big 12 region is traditionally home to some of the best developmental football in the nation. These kids are handed a football when they are first sat down in their playpen, and they eat football-shaped birthday cakes every year as children.
They are bought up students of Math, Science, English, Social Studies, and Texas or Oklahoma or Kansas State or A&M football. They play the game until the sun goes down after they finish their homework and eat dinner.
Week after week, the Big 12 is going to beat up on each other this year, and a one-loss winner of the conference deserves to go to the National Championship more so than any other one-loss team in the country.
Alabama had better go undefeated to make it to the big game because they have proved that they should be a top two team in the country, if not the best, because this year the Big 12 has proved that it's going to be hard to make it out of that conference without a loss.
Quite frankly, if it came down to a one-loss Texas or Oklahoma against a one-loss Florida or Alabama, it would be a crime to go with the SEC team given the toughness of the Big 12 this year.
While it can't be argued that the SEC is a great conference, it seems clear that the Big 12 is making its case as the capital of college football.
