Going into the fourth week of the season, the Big 12 is 24-2. Not bad for a conference that’ll likely implode this week. The Week Three Big 12 rankings are brought to you by Seinfeld (for last year’s Seinfeld edition, click here):
1. OKLAHOMA (2-0) | LAST WEEK: Defeated Florida State 23-13 | THIS WEEK: Vs. Missouri
