The road to the Big 12 title goes through Stillwater, Oklahoma, now after the Cowboys blitzed TCU 49-29 on a Saturday that featured three marquee games with huge playoff implications. Oklahoma State (9-0, No. 14 CFP) had been the lowest ranked unbeaten team from a Power Five conference in both the selection committee rankings that came out for the first time earlier this week and the AP Top 25. Oklahoma State visits Iowa State next week and then the remaining Big 12 contenders, Baylor and Oklahoma, will have to deal with quarterback Mason Rudolph and star defensive end Emmanuel Ogbah in Stillwater. [...] in Death Valley (the one in South Carolina), Clemson made the selection committee look pretty good and unseated the three-time defending ACC champions by beating Florida State 23-13. The Seminoles had won three straight against the Tigers, and then went on to win the Atlantic Division and the conference title game. Because that's the way it works in the ACC these days. The Tar Heels are the ultimate overlooked team, not even ranked by the playoff committee. The team's rugged defense, led by defensive end Shaq Lawson and linebacker Ben Boulware, allowed a long touchdown run by Dalvin Cook on the first drive for FSU and only two field goals the rest of the game.
