Is the Big 12 truly on the outside looking in? The common narrative says the new-look Big 12 Football Conference is a step above the Group of Five, but nowhere near the "P2" of the SEC and Big Ten... and that narrative is DEAD WRONG! On this episode of Couz's Corner, we're diving deep into the Big 12 vs SEC Big 10 debate to expose why the league is stronger and closer to elite status than you've been led to believe. I break down the true strength of the new-look Big 12. But that's not all! In the second segment, we take a trip back to the BCS Era to dissect one of the most misunderstood leagues in history: the Old Big East Football conference. After top programs like Virginia Tech and the Miami Hurricanes departed, was the Big East still a force? I explain why that late-era Big East was significantly underrated and why its legacy doesn't get appreciated. Which take is hotter? Drop your thoughts on the Big 12's status and the legacy of Big East Football in the comments!

It's Friday, December 19th, and Norm is doing that thing where he calmly lays out the facts… while quietly setting the building on fire.After dumping Mike McCarthy for a 7–10 season (even with Dak missing half the year), the Cowboys hired Brian Schottenheimer and sold everyone the “new coach, new culture, new results” dream. Fast-forward to now: 6–7–1, which is basically the same meal served on a newer plate.Norm runs through the offseason shopping spree and the draft picks that actually look like real football players… then asks the obvious question: how are they still mediocre? Spoiler: it's hard to look at a defense giving up 30 points per game and not start writing farewell cards.Then we get to the main event: Matt Eberflus' countdown clock. Jerry Jones loves the offense (who wouldn't?) but hates the defense with the intensity of a man who knows the actuarial tables and is very aware the last NFC Championship appearance was… 30 years ago. After the Vikings game where J.J. McCarthy looked like Tom Brady (no sacks, career-best passer rating), Jerry goes public: he's “fine with the players,” but the system isn't working. Which is convenient, because if it's not the system… well… then it's the roster. And if it's the roster… who built it?Exactly. CHAPTERS 00:00 – The Premise: Why Are the Cowboys Still the Cowboys?00:23 – Sponsor: Fluent Financial01:27 – McCarthy Got Fired at 7–10… So How Is 6–7–1 “Progress”?02:16 – The Offseason Reinforcements: They Actually Tried This Time03:10 – Injuries, Diggs, and the “It's One Player's Fault” Debate03:51 – The New Toys: Pickens, Kenny Clark, Quinn Williams, and More04:35 – Draft Class Check-In: Booker, Aziraku, Revel, and Overshown's Return05:11 – The Real Question: With All That… Why Are They Still 6–7–1?05:58 – Jerry's Frustration Sets In (Again)06:49 – Sponsor: Bob's Steak & Chop House07:19 – Sponsor: Full Moon Healing Balm08:33 – The “Almost Certain” Firing: Eberflus' Days Are Numbered09:16 – 30 Years Since the NFC Title Game: The Loudest Clock in Dallas10:11 – Offense = Elite, Defense = Big 12 Level (Allegedly)10:11 – Defensive Rankings: 31st in Scoring, 29th in Yards, Can't Cover Anybody11:49 – The Vikings Game: J.J.
