I think Arizona State still had Leavitt before the injury and the Sun Devils are a different team with Leavitt & Tyson in the lineup. Before and after that game Texas Tech rarely trailed though during the season.

I wouldn't knock the conference though as Texas only won it 4 times in 30 years and they are deeper are more known for defense since adding the Pac 12 teams. Outside of UCF & Colorado there really wasn't any easy games.
