New Rules..for Texas

By Brian Gotter

For all the Texas fans who are whining that Oklahoma does not deserve to be in the Championship Game because you beat us...I agree, but college football is not fair and we are playing better football right now.

With that said...someone sent me an email today with new Big 12 rules for breaking a tie.  The first is real, the others are just to make fun of Texas.  Go Sooners...we will see you horn fans in Dallas next October.

Big 12 -- Official Rulings

Divisional Tie-Breakers: Beginning with the 2009 season, the following procedure will determine the representative from each division in the event of a tie:
 
If two teams are tied, the winner of the game between the two tied teams shall be the representative.

 If three or more teams are tied, Texas wins.
 
If Texas is not one of the three teams tied, Texas wins.

 If one or both of the divisional winners lost to Texas at some point during the season, Texas wins.

 If three teams are tied, but Texas beat the North winner, Texas wins.
