Big XII Power Rankings Week 6: Chaos Reigns Edition

Dark powers are on the rise.

We have our first major shake up in the power rankings.

Power Rankings

Texas Longhorns (5-1, 3-0)—Like some terrible dark evil, it has reformed. Texas is [sigh] decidedly back and conference title runs through Austin. Beware the Burnt Orange Terror.
West Virginia University Mountaineers (5-0, 3-0)—Whatever rune warding Dana placed on the stadium in the off-season worked as Chaos was held in check.
Oklahoma Sooners (5-1, 2-1)— Definitely in need of a new Defense of the Dark Arts Coordinator. I am told they have looked into the Wizard Ruffin.
Texas Tech Red Raiders (3-2, 1-1)—Back at base this week, presumably working on new devilry.
TCU Horned Frogs (3-2, 1-1)—Likewise, the Frogs spent time working on reanimating their powers of old.
Iowa State Cyclones (2-3, 1-2) — What darkness yet lurks in the heart of Ames?
Oklahoma State Cowboys (4-2, 1-2)—Mullet magic may be wearing off.
Baylor Bears (4-2, 2-1)—Should just actually be banned. Not because they practice necromancy or anything.
Kansas State Wildcats (2-4, 0-3)—That in an entire power ranking rife with wizard references, Kansas State is just now being mentioned speaks volumes for where this program is at the moment.
Kansas Jayhawks (2-4, 0-4)— Conjurers of cheap tricks, imo.

This weekend shuffled things a bit, also I noticed I had our bowl tie-ins wrong so we’ve fixed that.
