Any thoughts on the Big 12 awards?
Texas Tech is the only team completely shut out. OU and A&M received only honorable mention honors.
I don't get the COY voting at all, but Denmon not being a unanimous 1st team pick is even more baffling. I would've figured Dixon would at least get an honorable mention spot, but maybe coaches were only voting for starters.
I also think Osby probably deserved a spot over one of the Baylor bigs (PJIII or Acy).
