The TCU Horned Frogs have skyrocketed to the top of the Big 12 after defeating four ranked conference teams in a row and clinching a spot in the conference championship. With a win over Baylor on Friday, Texas is poised to move into the second spot if Kansas State falls to Kansas on Saturday evening of rivalry week. However, the Wildcats hold their destiny in their own hands — a win will send them to the championship game. TCU defeated both Kansas State and Texas in the regular season.

With no regional divisions, the Big 12 employs a 10-team, nine-game round robin format in their scheduling. Without divisions, the teams with the two best in-conference records compete in the Big 12 Championship each year.

Here are the latest standings in the Big 12 ahead of the 2022 Big 12 Championship Game, scheduled to be held at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas on December 3.
