Overview

• The SEC leads the Power Four with a 27-3 non-conference mark and an 8-2 record against other major conferences.
• The Big 12 sits at 24-8 overall and 5-6 against Power Four foes after a turbulent Saturday of setbacks.
• Notable results included Oklahoma State’s 69-3 loss at Oregon, Kansas State’s late collapse to Army, Arizona State’s defeat at Mississippi State, West Virginia’s loss to Ohio, and Kansas falling at Missouri.
• The Big 12 is 0-3 against the SEC, a data point likely to weigh on strength-of-schedule comparisons in CFP evaluations.
• Iowa State moved to No. 1 in the Hotline’s Week 3 Big 12 rankings after edging Iowa, with Baylor’s double-overtime win at SMU also flagged as a key non-conference result.
