For the past decade, Oklahoma (and until last year, Texas) had established a stranglehold on the top of the Big 12.
The Sooners won their seventh Big 12 title since 2000 in 2010, but did it after winning a three-team tiebreaker atop the Big 12 South and erasing a 17-point, second-quarter deficit in the Big 12 title game.

Texas A&M, which beat the Sooners by two touchdowns at Kyle Field, and Oklahoma State, who lost a heart-stopper to the Sooners in Stillwater with the South on the line and the Cowboys favored to win.
