More often than not, it pays to bet on Big 12 teams choking in big games.
Being from Nebraska, I would really like to respect the Big 12 as a strong conference. However, when B12 teams face tough competition they fold. Texas is the poster boy for this. How that university can't field a championship team in football or basketball is beyond me. They enjoy unlimited resources and unmatched fan devotion. Their facilities are incredible. Their in-state recruit base is unreal. Television revenue and exposure is flowing in at all times. Austin gets all kinds of national pub as the "new Seattle"-type altera-place to live.
They haven't won dick since the old SWC days.
