My All-Big 12 team

Posted November 29, 2006

The Associated Press ALL-BIG 12 team will be announced this week, and I thought I would share my votes. Feel free to rip me.

I will say this. I struggle most with the offensive linemen. There are no real statistics on which to base decisions for offensive linemen the way there are at every other position.

I also plan to share my votes for the Heisman Trophy next week. Anyway, here is how I voted this year.
