Weather could have an impact on one key Big 12 game Saturday. It’s already having an impact on one Saturday.
The game between No. 7 Baylor and No. 19 TCU in Fort Worth had been scheduled to kick off around 7:30 ET this evening. However, lightning in the area has caused the start time to be pushed back.
As of this posting, kickoff is scheduled for 8:20 ET.
While TCU has already been eliminated from the Big 12 chase, Baylor remains very much alive. If BU beats TCU and Oklahoma State defeats Oklahoma in Bedlam tomorrow, the Bears will be the Big 12 champion for College Football Playoff committee accounting purposes.
If the Sooners win this weekend, they would be the conference champs regardless of what the Bears do tonight and next weekend. The Cowboys can make its claim if it wins Bedlam and the Bears lose at least one of its last two games.
