Chuck Carlton, Big 12 beat writer for SportsDayDFW.com and The Dallas Morning News, answered questions about the league during a live chat recently. Here are some highlights.
Interesting spot these two teams are in... what does the outcome of Thursday's showcase mean for TCU and Texas Tech?
Carlton: Look at this as one of those pivotal midseason games in the Big 12. The loser will have two Big 12 losses and will have to adjust its goals, especially TCU, which was hoping for a return trip to the Big 12 championship game.
