Big XII Shut Out of NFL 1st Round

[DuckTownHusker]

For the first time ever, the Big XII was completely shut out of the NFL's first round.

I get that the conference doesn't have Nebraska, Mizzou, Colorado or Texas A&M anymore, but it's not like TCU or West Virginia don't produce NFL players. If anything, this is just more of an embarrassment for the Sooners and Horns.

I don't know the details, but are there guys that normally would have gone into the draft that are instead coming back for an additional season due to COVID?

The cream of the crop .....

SEC - 11
B1G - 7 ... I'm surprised only one Ohio State (Fields). NW and PSU got 2 (total of 4)
ACC - 7

Sprinkled PAC12 ...... 3

OMG -- as if we needed more evidence that Nebraska would be a perfect fit back in the Big 12 !?!?

OU has several underclassman who decided to come back. They think the Sooners can win a national title this year.

ND st. Has 2 in the 1st 2 rounds. That’s amazing.......especially when you compare that even over the last several years with DONU. So long as CTB stays healthy, I’m calling him picked in 1st 2 rounds next year.....

As long as they can avoid the playoffs, there is a good chance of this.

Maybe NU will help them avoid the playoff. I’m down for that!

I think they can, too. Where's their weakness?

Defense until they prove otherwise. Offensively, they are about as good as anyone. Have to score, a lot, to beat them.

That defense was pretty good last year, and it got better throughout the season. I wouldn't bet against it.

The Big 12 has some good teams. The whorns will be back eventually. Oklahoma is always good and has an excellent coach. TVU has a excellent coach as does Oklahoma St. Not the most physical conference but no worse than the PAC and some years the ACC.

As Nebraska fans I am surprised we would be throwing any shade at any team or conference for their draft record.

Yeah seems kinda dumb too me. I was happy to see our two offensive linemen get drafted. I honestly didn’t think they would.
