Oklahoma: The Sooners have already beaten TCU and Oklahoma State. They have what should be an easy win this week against Kansas, and then will wrap up the season against West Virginia the following week at home. A win against WVU after beating Kansas secures the number one seed for the Sooners in the Big 12 title game. A 1-1 finish locks down the top spot, as long as Oklahoma wins that West Virginia game.
TCU: The Frogs need help in securing the top overall seed, and it is a tall order to expect Oklahoma to fall to Kansas. TCU then needs a West Virginia win over the Sooners in the season finale to maintain the top seed. If not, TCU could still be the number two team into the final. The Frogs have the tiebreaker over both West Virginia and Oklahoma State should they maintain the two spot. The Frogs have what should be an easy road in games against Texas Tech and Baylor.
Oklahoma State: The Cowboys need some help to get into the conference title game, meaning that they need to win out against Kansas State and Kansas, and they need TCU to lose once, and could even move up higher with two Oklahoma losses. It's not over yet, but if TCU wins this week, the run is over by virtue of a tie breaker.
West Virginia: The Mountaineers need to take care of business this week at home against Texas. They then need a win over Oklahoma, and they would need losses by both Oklahoma State and TCU. If OSU or TCU win this week, West Virginia has no control over their destiny, and it may very well be over.
