So, this conference got tilted a little bit this weekend. Again, with it being a full round robin, there could be more chances for multi-way ties.
Baylor (4-0) and Texas (4-0) now lead the conference and control their own destinies.
Oklahoma State (3-1) is the only team with a loss that controls their own destiny, since they have yet to play the teams above them, or with equal loss records.
Oklahoma (4-1) jumped back into the mix, but they still need Texas to lose two.
Texas Tech (4-1) lost control of their destiny while losing to Oklahoma this week. They need Oklahoma to lose another one to gain it back, or to potentially force a 4 way tie of 1-loss teams.
Kansas State (1-3) finally won a conference game, but for it to matter, they need Baylor and Texas to lose 4 games, and Oklahoma State to lose 3.
West Virginia and TCU (both 1-4) probably have a distant chance at the conference title, but a lot of other teams need to lose. Since they play each other next week, the loser will get knocked out of contention if either Baylor or Texas win. (Loser would be 1-5, Baylor and/or Texas would be 5-0 with a worst case conference record of 5-4.)
Kansas and Iowa State are both 0-4, so we won't worry about them until they win one, but it might not come in time for it to matter. Like the loser of the matchup above, if either team loses next week while one of the two leaders wins, they would be eliminated.
