Big 12 football continues to be as unpredictable as any conference in the nation. These are our power rankings post-Week 10.

The Big 12 had one of its most thrilling games of the season yesterday when K-State nearly dethroned Texas from the top of the conference on the road. Oklahoma State also upset Oklahoma, handing Brett Venables his second consecutive loss after his team started the year 7-0 until one week ago.
