@MrWalkSoftly:

How is the Big12 conference championship suppose to work without the conference being split into 2 divisions like the other conferences are? I thought the NCAA had a rule that says a conference can only have a championship game if they have 2 divisions. If the NCAA allows the Big12 to have a championship game why can't the Sunbelt conference have one?

@DearJohn: It's a new rule. Any conference with less than 12 teams can now elect to play a championship game.
The B12 decided to do it to help with the playoffs....and revenue.

""The Big 12 has released its 2017 football schedule which features a 10-team, nine-game, round-robin format for the seventh-consecutive season.
The top two finishers in the regular season standings will compete for the Conference title in the Big 12 Football Championship Game on December 2. The championship game returns after a six-year absence and will be played in Arlington, Texas' AT&T Stadium through 2021.""

Rebs roll 50-12 to improve to 3-0 on the season.
2nd and 3rd stringers played for the Rebels the 2nd half.
Next up, Noxubee County MS makes the trip into Rebel Stadium next Friday night. I'll be at that one. GO REBELS!

I'm all about TN/FL this afternoon and LSU/MS state later this evening....

GEAUX TIGERS!

Frickin LSU! Consistently leads the college ranks putting players in the NFL and STILL can't get it done as a college team! Frickin dumb ass penalities and plss poor coaching! Frick this! Where's my damn drink?!

@MrWalkSoftly:

Sure seems like there's been a lot of interceptions returned for touchdowns this year.

It sure does, for sure
