Fiu ponders whether the conference was overrated last year.

Did the bowl season expose the Big 12 as overrated?

So no, the Big 12 wasn?t exactly exposed as overrated, but it didn?t come through as well as many expected meaning the league won?t automatically get the benefit of the doubt in the national respect department without a big non-conference season.

This year, it?ll be important to take a more critical eye when it comes to looking at the league considering the rebuilding job needed to be done by teams like Missouri and Texas Tech. It?ll also be important to keep an eye on Texas, a certain preseason top three-ranked team, and not just judge on its record. The schedule is light enough to make it a two-game season against Oklahoma and at Oklahoma State.

It?ll be vital to keep a record of how the North does in non-conference play to see how much it matters if and when the South fattens up on the lesser division. Texas, Texas A&M and Texas Tech don?t have anyone of note in non-conference play, unless you consider Tech?s date against Houston and A&M?s date with Arkansas impressive, so be wary of big, fat records by some of the South?s stars. However, there are several chances for the Big 12 to shine. For example ?

- Baylor plays at Wake Forest and hosts Connecticut
- Colorado goes to West Virginia
- Iowa State hosts Iowa
- Kansas State goes to UCLA
- Missouri plays Illinois and goes to Nevada
- Nebraska goes to Virginia Tech
- Oklahoma plays BYU and goes to Miami
- Oklahoma State hosts Georgia
