This Friday afternoon, Johnny Dawkins and his formidable motley crew of solid talent and “second chance” men tip-off against the Wisconsin Badgers in the Greenbrier Tip-Off in Greenbrier County, West Virginia. Some four hours due north in Morgantown, Gus Malzahn will be laying his head down to sleep Friday evening in hopes of keeping some semblance of a respectable season intact as his 4-6 grouping of blue-chip talent and Portal prospects get ready to take on West Virginia Saturday. One team is riding an undefeated win streak for the year into a marquee out-of-conference matchup against the #19 ranked team in the nation, while the other is hoping to return the favor of an absolute drudging by the same conference opponent the year before on Homecoming and fighting to make a bowl.

Who would have thought these first eighteen months in the Big 12 would have gone this way? Our athletic department’s two highest revenue-generation sports go in entirely different directions.
