The Big 12 was not immune from the chaos of Week 7 in college football. BYU beat Notre Dame in one of the weekend's best games. TCU also upset Baylor to get their third win of the season. Three games were decided by three points, including Colorado's game against Utah, which came down to a Hail Mary.

In another not-surprising win, Texas Tech took care of business against Arizona State, scoring 53 points. Kansas State also defeated Kansas 35-24 to get their fourth win of the season.

Here is how the Big 12 standings look after Week 7.
