So with the final week approaching, next weekend, this league pits two games against each other. Bedlam on Fox (whatever FS1 or Fox?) @ 11:30 with the K-State game @ TCU starting 30 minutes earlier at the idiotic time (once again) at 11:00 am. The West Virginia game with Baylor is at 2:30, once again on Fox.

I have written about this before, but this tv package sucks. When ABC or ESPN (or any of the family of ESPN channels) doesn't pick your game up, at a decent time, this tells me the The Big 12 is in serious trouble. This TV deal clearly doesn't treat all teams with balanced start times.

I know a lot of people love the 11 am games, but for those who have to drive long distances (150 to 250 miles) to get to Manhattan, it's not good.
