The Big 12 Conference is a ten college athletic conference of ten schools headquartered in Irving, Texas. It is a member of the NCAA Division I for all sports; his soccer team competes in the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS, formerly Division IA), which is higher than the two NCAA Division I football competition levels. Ten members, located in Iowa, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas and West Virginia, include eight public schools and two private Christian schools. In addition, Big 12 has 12 affiliate members, eight for sports wrestling, one for women's gymnastics, and 3 for women's rowing. The 12 Big Conference is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization incorporated in Delaware.
The Big 12 Conference was established on February 25, 1994. Eight members of the former Eight Great Conference joined the Southwest Conference schools of Texas, Texas A & amp; M, Baylor and Texas Tech to form the new Big 12 Conference, which started the competition on August 31, 1996. Oklahoma and Oklahoma State are grouped with four former SWC schools in the Great Southern 12 division, while six other teams from the former Big Eight (Kansas, Kansas State, Colorado, Nebraska, Missouri, and Iowa State) were formed. division of the Great 12 North.
The current 10-campus conference campus is generated from the reorganization of the 12-13 2010 Conference, where Nebraska joins the Big Ten Conference, Colorado joins Pac-12, and Missouri and Texas A & amp; M joined the Southeastern Conference. TCU and West Virginia join from Mountain West and Big East Conferences respectively to keep pace with two departing schools, bringing the conference to its current strength.
The 12 Big Conference, like the others involved in the rearrangement, has retained its name primarily for marketing purposes; this conference has a high name recognition and remains one of the Power Five conferences that are considered as major competitors to produce a championship playoff team College in a given year. Attempts to rename the Big 12 to reflect its current strength will cause confusion with the current Big Ten Conference (which currently has 14 teams).
Commissioner of the Big 12 Conference is Bob Bowlsby.

School-sponsored sports
Male vocal sports (and Coed - see Rifle) are not sponsored by the Big 12 Conference played by 12 major schools:
- Rifles are often categorized as men's sports because of the NCAA rules that set a scholarship limit for every sport rifle list as a men's sport. Nonetheless, it is an open coed sport at NCAA college athletics, with men, women, and student teams in all the NCAA divisions competing against each other. TCU and West Virginia are both field teams. Through 2017, West Virginia with 19 national titles and TCU with two, together have won more than half the NCAA titles awarded since the first NCAA championship in 1980. West Virginia also won four pre-NCAA national titles.

History
Big 12 Conference is a college athletic conference in the US major, which was formed in February 1994 when four leading universities of Texas who became a member of the Southwest Conference are invited to join the eight members of the Big Eight Conference to form a new 12 conference members. The Big 12 started playing athletics in the fall of 1996, with Texas Tech vs. football matches. Kansas State became the first sporting event staged by the conference. From its formation to 2011, 12 of its members competed in two divisions. Between 2011 and 2012, four charter members left the conference, while two schools joined in 2012.

The Big 12 is unique among today's Power Five conferences because having only 10 members, regardless of its name, causes confusion. From 1987 to 2015, 12 or more members are required for "exclusion" conference championships - that is, that does not count towards the NCAA limit for regular season matches (currently 12 on FBS) - although such first games are not set until the SEC does so on 1992. (Since the 2014 season, Pac-12 has 12 members, while ACC, Big Ten, and SEC have 14 members of football respectively.)
Former Texas Athlete Director DeLoss Dodds and former soccer coach Mack Brown, along with Oklahoma football coach Bob Stoops, would rather not have a championship game. Critics argue it is a competitive advantage over other contract conferences. Conferences with championship games have their division champions usually playing one of their toughest games of the year in the last week of the regular season. Unlike other "Power 5" conferences where one team only plays part of the other team in a conference each season, each Great 12 team plays the other nine teams during the conference schedule. This theoretically allows for de facto champion declaration without the need for additional rematches between the top two teams in the conference.
On 3 June 2016, the conference announces it will restore the soccer championship game in the 2017 season. This follows the passage of the new NCAA rules allowing all FBS conferences to hold "free" soccer championship games regardless of their membership number.
Population base
The 12 major schools are located in the states of Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, West Virginia, and Iowa. These countries have a combined population of 37.8 million.
In 2013, out of 115.6 million national TV households there were only 13,427,130 TV households in the states (11.6%), although Morgantown, West Virginia where WVU was in the Pittsburgh television market, which increased the television base Big 12 well. to Pennsylvania, and Lawrence, Kansas, where KU is headquartered, is on the Kansas City television market, increasing its base to western Missouri. The Big 12 piece of national TV is similar to that achieved by the rest of the Power Five. The conference negotiated tier 1 and 2 TV contracts with total payouts similar to those at other Power Five conferences.
Grant Rights
Member schools are granted their first and second-rate sports media rights to the conference for the length of their current TV offerings. The Grant of Rights (GOR) dealing with league TV contracts ensures that "if the Big 12 school leaves for another league within the next 13 years, the school's media rights, including revenue, will remain with Big 12 and not the new conference."
GOR is seen by members of the league as "the foundation of stability" and allows Big 12 to "be positioned with one of the best media rights settings in a college sport, providing conferences and members an unprecedented revenue growth, and sports programming through two networks. members agree with the GOR and then agree to extend the first 6 year contract to 13 years to match their long-term TV contract.
Prior to this agreement, the Big Ten and Pac-12 also had the same GOR agreement. The Big 12 then helped ACC in drafting its GOR agreement. Four of the five major conferences now have such agreements, with the SEC the only exception.
Tier 3 Event
The Big 12 is the only major conference that allows members to monetize TV rights for tier 3 events in men's soccer and basketball. This allows individual 12 major members to enter into a 3 level agreement that includes TV rights for one home football game and four men's basketball games at home per season. Tier 3 rights exist for other sports as well, but these are not unique to Big 12. Unique arrangements potentially allow Big 12 members to remain among the highest earners in sports college. Other conference cable transactions are subject to value reductions based on how people acquire cable programming, the Big 12 school tier 3 deal is not excluded. Texas alone will get more than $ 150 million of that total from their Longhorn Network.
Revenue
Revenue conferences mostly come from television contracts, bowl games, NCAA, merchandise, licenses and sporting events held at conferences. The conference distributes income annually to member institutions. From 1996 to 2011, 57 percent of revenues were equally divided; while 43 percent were based on the number of basketball and male television appearances and other factors. In 2011 the distribution was 76 percent the same and 24 percent based on television appearances. Changing the settings requires a unanimous vote; as members of the Big 12, Nebraska and Texas A & amp; M has held back support for a fairer distribution of income.
With this model, larger schools can receive more revenue because they appear more often on television. In 2006, for example, Texas received $ 10.2 million, 44% more than Baylor University $ 7.1 million.
12 major revenues are generally smaller than other BCS conferences; This is due in part to a television deal signed with Fox Sports Net (four years for $ 48 million) and ABC/ESPN (eight years for $ 480 million).
In 2011, the Big 12 announced a 13-year new media rights deal with Fox that would ensure that every World's Big 12 football game was broadcast on television, as well as increasing the coverage of women's basketball, conference championships and other sports. The deal, worth approximately $ 1.1 billion, runs until 2025. In 2012, the conference announces a new ESPN/FOX agreement, replacing the current ABC/ESPN deal, to instantly improve the national football press release and increase conference revenue; the new deal is estimated to be worth $ 2.6 billion until 2025 expires. Both agreements encourage pay-per-school conferences to about $ 20 million annually, while separating the rights of third-tier media into separate agreements for each school; Such contracts earn an extra $ 6 million to $ 20 million per school each year. Payments per school under the deal are estimated at $ 44 million, according to Commissioner Bob Bowlsby.

Football
The first soccer game in a conference was Texas Tech vs. Kansas State in 1996, won by Kansas State, 21-14.
From 1996 to 2010, the teams of the Big 12 Conference played eight conference games each season. Each team faces all five opponents in its own division and three teams from the opposing division. The inter-division game is a "three-on, three-off" system, in which the team will play three teams from another division on a home-and-home basis for two seasons, and then play three other opponents from the opposite side for a two- -and-home.
This format received much criticism, especially from Nebraska and Oklahoma, which was denied an annual match between two of the most famous college football programs. The Nebraska-Oklahoma competition is one of the most intense in the history of college football. (Until 2006, the team had never met in the 12th Championship.) Due to the departure of Nebraska and Colorado in 2011, Big 12 eliminated divisions (and championship matches) and instituted nine turn-robin matches. With the advent of the College Playoff committee that saw the team's timing power to choose four playoff teams, on December 8, 2015, Big 12 announced annual requirements for all 12 major teams to schedule non-conference matches against teams. from four other Power Five conferences (plus Notre Dame). Per Big 12 Commissioner Bob Bowlsby: "The power schedule is a key component in the discussion of the CFP Selection Committee.This step will reinforce the resume for all of the Big 12 teams.Added by the full game schedule of the nine-month robin rounds our team plays, it will not only benefit the team at the top of our standings every season, but will have an impact on the overall strength of the Conference. "
Championship game
The Big 12 Championship Game game has been approved by all members except Nebraska. It's held every year, starting with the first game of the 1996 season at the Trans World Dome in St. Louis. Louis. It pitted the division champions to each other after the regular season is over.
After the 2008 game, the event was moved to the new Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas, which was played there in 2009 and 2010. In 2010, Sooners defeated Cornhuskers 23-20.
After 2010, the game was moved to Arlington for 2011, 2012, and 2013. However, the decision was to be debated after the 2010 season because the league lacked enough members.
In April 2015, the ACC and the Big 12 developed a new rule for the NCAA to deregulate the conference championship match. The move was adopted on January 14, 2016, allowing conferences with fewer than 12 teams to stage an unaccounted championship game against the FBS limit of 12 regular season games in one of the following situations:
- This game involves the top two teams after the full-robin conference schedule.
- The game involves two division winners, each of whom has played a full-robin rotation schedule in his division.
Under the first criterion, the Great 12 championship game will continue at the end of the 2017 regular season, and will be played during the first weekend of December, when all other FBS Division I conference championships are played.

Rivalry
Competition (especially in football) mostly precedes conferences. The Kansas-Missouri Competition is the longest, longest west of the Mississippi and the second longest in college football. It was played 119 times before Missouri left Big 12. In October 2012, the University of Kansas athletics department did not accept Missouri's invitation to play inter-conference competition games, putting the competition on hold. The sports clubs sponsored by the two universities continued to play each other.
The rivalry between TCU and Baylor, known as the Resurrection is also one of the longest matches in college football, with the two schools playing each other - mostly as members of the Southwest Conference - 112 times since 1899. In 2016, TCU led the series 53-52 -7.
The Oklahoma-Texas competition, Red River Showdown a year younger and has been played 108 times. It was a huge rivalry a couple of decades before they were both at the conference, starting the year after the Rebirth in 1900. Currently Texas leads this 60-44-5 rivalry.
Some of the longstanding football rivalry between Big 12 schools includes:
Competition with former members
Men's basket
From 1996 to 2011, the standings in the conference games were not shared among the divisions, although the schedule was arranged as such. The team plays home-and-home against teams in their "division" and one game against teams from opposing divisions for a total of 16 matches. After Nebraska and Colorado left, Big 12 plays were shifted to an 18-match, double-robin round schedule.
Champion Conference
12 big basketball teams played non-divisional members one-time and twice-division members during the regular season in a 16-match schedule until the 2012-13 season when ten teams adopted a "double round trip and double" 18 match-up event. The conference tournament provides the first-round bye to the top four teams from 1997 to 2012, and the top six teams in 2013 to attend.
Kansas has at most 12 titles, winning or sharing a regular season title 17 times in 21 league seasons.
