Big 12 football media days 2025 continued Tuesday with Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy and Colorado coach Deion Sanders speaking at The Star.

Yormark said he expects ACC commissioner Jim Phillips to emphasize the same pro-5+11 stance when his conference starts its media days later this month. He also said to ESPN he is "relatively confident" the playoff will expand to 16 teams when its new media rights contract begins in the 2026 season.

The Big 12 commissioner has seen plenty of growth by the league, which he believes should boost its profile in the College Football Playoff.

Deion Sanders stole the show at Big 12 media days, addressing his health, Colorado’s QB battle and his vision for the Buffaloes in 2025.

The Big 12's crusade to change the narrative might not be done. Klieman revealed to CBS Sports he is privately advocating for the abolition of preseason voting in the AP and Coaches polls, a practice that began in 1950. He said conversations are underway among coaches in the Big 12 and the American Football Coaches Association.

Jalon Daniels landed outside the top half in a new Big 12 quarterback ranking. Can the Kansas signal-caller prove the national media wrong in 2025?

Big 12 commissioner Brett Yormark went all in on the “5+11” proposed model for the College Football Playoff on the first day of media days in Texas.
