The Texas Longhorns could clench a spot in the Big 12 Conference Championship this weekend

The Texas Longhorns take on the Baylor Bears this weekend, and if all of the stars align correctly, they could insure a spot in the 2009 Big 12 Conference Championship Game. For The UT Longhorns to go all the way, they need to beat the Baylor Bears on Saturday AND the Oklahoma State Cowboys need to lose to the Texas Tech Red Raiders, not too out of the question.

Analysts are saying that the hopes of the Texas Longhorns are tied up in Colt McCoy who is also a strong contender for the Heisman Trophy this year. Other players to watch will be Cody Johnson, James Kirkendoll and Nick Florence.

The in-state rivals kick off on Saturday at Floyd Casey Stadium at noon.

Oklahoma State Cowboys are still chasing the Big 12 Title

The Oklahoma State Cowboys are still chasing after the Big 12 Conference Title. Despite a big loss to Texas last week the OSU Cowboys are still hopeful that they can pull together a strong finish to the season and be Conference Championship contenders.

“There’s still a chance at a Big 12 title,” said OSU offensive lineman Brady Bond. “The way the Big 12 has been played this year, there’s still a chance. We’re just going to play one week at a time and worry about what we can worry about. We can’t control how Texas plays. We’ll take it one game a week and we’ve got Iowa State this week so we’ll go from there.”

OSU plans on letting the loss go and looking to the next few games including the match-up with Iowa State this weekend. If the OSU Cowboys can pull out a few big wins, critics are saying that they really are still in the running.
