Big 12 performances
TCU is the only undefeated team in the Big 12.
TCU clinches championship berth in win Bradley Cook Staff Reporter Week seven of conference play has officially wrapped up, and TCU is the first team to earn a spot in the Big 12 title game, while several teams are still competing for that final spot. This is how each team performed: TCU: A TCU remains the only hope for a Big 12 team to appear in the College Football Playoff. The Horned Frogs hit the road to play a confident Texas team. Running back Kendre Miller was the engine for the TCU offense, as he rushed for 138 yards and a touchdown. Miller’s efforts helped push TCU
to a 17-10 win over Texas, as well as earn TCU a spot in the Big 12 Championship game. Kansas State: A+ Kansas State was looking to bounce back as they traveled to play Baylor. The Wildcats’ defense shut down the Baylor offense, allowing only three points and forced Baylor quarterback Blake Shapen to throw two interceptions. Kansas State defeated Baylor 31-3. West Virginia: B+ It was a rainy day in Morgantown as West Virginia hosted Oklahoma, as both teams are still looking to become bowl eligible. The Mountaineer offense was rolling, led by running back Garrett Greene, who tallied 119 yards and two touchdowns on 8.5 yards per carry. West Virginia pulled off
the upset over Oklahoma, winning 23-20. Oklahoma State: BOSU was looking to end its two game losing streak as it brought Iowa State to Stillwater. The Cowboys’ defense gave the Iowa State offense a lot of trouble, as they forced five turnovers. A late appearance by quarterback Spencer Sanders was able to propel OSU to a 20-14 victory over Iowa State. Texas Tech: B+ After suffering back-to-back losses, Texas Tech rebounded in Saturday’s game against Kansas. The Red Raiders combined for over 500 yards and totaled five touchdowns led by quarterback Tyler Shough. Texas Tech defeated Kansas 43-28. See Big 12 on 3

Ben & Jerry's taste test Gabriel Trevino Sports Editor
Even with the temperature dropping and the feeling of winter looming, it doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy ice cream. And with the founders of Ben & Jerry’s ice cream, Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield, coming to OSU’s campus on Thursday for a speaker’s board,
why not review some of the company’s popular flavors. Before I get to the reviews, I must say I’ve never had Ben & Jerry’s before. I’m from Texas, where Blue Bell and Creamy Creations reigns supreme. But I was excited to finally see if the hype was real.
And for some, it lived up to it. The first flavor I tried was the “Brownie Batter Core,” a split between chocolate and vanilla ice cream with brownie bite pieces and a large chunk of brownie batter in the middle of the pint. Hence the name. I was not originally going to get this
one, but after a friend recommended it, I threw it in the cart. I wish I didn’t listen.
