THE ULTIMATE @Big12Conference Football 2025 Power Rankings & Analysis- Post Spring Ball Edition

A new #1 emerges in my Big-12 Football Power Rankings and I’m confident the Big 12 has 6 teams that are in FAFO mode for 2025 as it related to being disrespected last year, and no fewer than two of these will make the CFP this year.

Big-12 Conference themes to watch:

- Strong year expected w/ experienced QB's in the Big12 that I believe will keep the conference competitive vs SEC, B1G and ACC inter-conference matchups.

- 6 multi-year starting 1,000yd RB's were just drafted into the NFL (Skattebo, Harvey, Giddens, Neal, Brooks, Gordon) who will step up to take their places...

- Will Big12 successes be driven more on defense?

- There are two new coaches (both returning to programs they’ve coached previously) how quickly do they reintegrate?

- Several teams have been relying on the portal very heavily, and while there are some quick wins via this strategy, is there such a thing as hitting it too hard?
History is beginning to show that living and dying by the portal every year can be hard on teams, especially when it comes to building continuity and team culture, which can create collateral challenges.

With that said, let’s dive into the rankings. For each team, I've given in a ranking between 1st -16th and typed up an Overview analysis, Transfer portal update on key Additions and Departures, Offensive expectations, Defensive expectations, Schedule overview and then final quick summary of my expectation for the season with a projected record.

I’ve tried my best to give a comprehensive analysis and be as objective as possible. Feel free to chime in with feedback on your individual team’s review, I’d love to hear any and all rebuttals and/or what I might be missing.

I'll provide my next update about a week before the season starts in late August.

@UnlandedGentry @MomAngtrades “…where are the Sherpas?!” 😂

[The $DUDE 📈 @nikiped1a]

@UnlandedGentry @MomAngtrades Looks like a nice spot, but definitely a hill, haha. These ones in the picture are in the 11,000- 12,000 range. There are others in the state that top out at 13,500

[The $DUDE 📈 @nikiped1a]

That number might be the town which is down in the bottom portion of the canyon.

I was pulling data from the actual resort which is probably ~10-15% higher due to higher elevation.

Here is a NWS data table for the past 5 years... 2023 was the big year, and for whatever reason, it's showing M (missing) although it has all the data populated, haha.

I added it up and in 2023 it received 71.17, so there's obviously some variance, but it averages in the low to mid 50's annually

[The $DUDE 📈 @nikiped1a]

@UnlandedGentry @MomAngtrades That's a picture of Alta/Snowbird ski areas in Utah that average 58" of precip per year.

Two winters ago, they accumulated 903"+ of snow, so they were probably closer to the 80" total precip range

@breecaii2 Certain types of social media, that young women tend to gravitate towards is toxic to the mind
