I’ve had time to think about Baylor not running out the clock vs. OU. I’ve reviewed major philosophical traditions. The world’s great religions. And I’ve asked those I respect the most. I do think Aranda was wrong to kick the field goal. He should have tried to score a touchdown.

Oklahoma is the Big 12's best team. But Texas being crowned the league's second best team is crazy. Baylor ranks better in SP+ and has a massively better defense. Texas could be better, but losing to an SEC team doesn't make you the Big 12's second best; it makes you Texas A&M.

Robert, I am too young to have watched Texas A&M's last 9-0 team. But before the Aggies left being 8-4 in the Big 12 to be 8-4 in the SEC, you had one ranked win in 1992, then lost by 25 in the Cotton Bowl. The '92 Aggies are the worst 9-0 ever.
