What a shame. Texas deserved it in my opinion. Both teams had been incredibly impressive all year long. Texas won head to head, they deserve to play in the Big 12 Championship. Sure, head to head shouldn't be the only factor, but this isn't like 1993 when Notre Dame beat Florida State but it was incredibly clear the Florida State was the superior team.
Now Texas has to hope that Missouri upsets Oklahoma to play in the national championship game. I think there's only 4 possible NC games now:
Oklahoma vs. Alabama
Oklahoma vs. Florida
Texas vs. Alabama
Texas vs. Florida
Right or wrong, I think it will be Oklahoma vs. Florida.
