The preseason poll is 7-4 after this week and the weekly polls are 6.5-4.
Continuing the analysis using the Mathletics formulas.
The predicted winning percentage (adjusted for football from baseball) is runs scored / runs scored + runs allowed. The current numbers for the Big XII:
| PW% | |||
| Team | All | Conference | Non-Conference |
| Baylor | .9171 | .8316 | .9947 |
| Iowa State | .2535 | .1852 | .5229 |
| Kansas | .1593 | .0925 | .6221 |
| Kansas State | .6708 | .6167 | .8068 |
| Oklahoma | .7247 | .6059 | .9272 |
| Oklahoma State | .8648 | .8225 | .9449 |
| Texas | .6258 | .6586 | .5556 |
| TCU | .5023 | .3606 | .7505 |
| Texas Tech | .6235 | .4729 | .9377 |
| West Virginia | .3580 | .3155 | .5376 |
As this was calculated using the NFL adjustment, it may or may not be accurate.
This PW% is in fairly accurate range, predicted conference finishing order using conference PW%: O-State, Baylor/Texas, OU, K-State, Tech, TCU, WVU, I-State and KU
In the NFL, passing yards / attempts and defensive passing yards /attempt explain about 70% of a team's performance, while rushing yards / attempt and defensive rushing yards / attempt explain another 6%. Below is how each Big XII team is doing in these two areas:
| All games | Conf games | ||||||||
| Team | PY/A | DPY/A | RY/A | DRY/A | PY/A | DPY/A | RY/A | DRY/A | |
