Bryce Petty and company grabbed a share of a second consecutive Big 12 title. Up next for the Bears is wait and see. Petty threw for 412 yards, Johnny Jefferson had two touchdown runs and Baylor beat No. 9 Kansas State 38-27 on Saturday night. Baylor (11-1, 8-1, No. 6 CFP) and TCU (11-1, 8-1, No. 3 CFP) tied for the top spot in the Big 12. The Horned Frogs were ranked higher in the most recent committee poll, but they lost to the Bears 61-58 on Oct. 11. Theres one true champion and its the Baylor Bears, coach Art Briles screamed to the celebratory crowd after the victory over the Wildcats. The Bears became the only team with consecutive Big 12 titles other than Oklahoma from 2006-08. They are a sure thing for one of the top six New Years bowls, but the new four-team playoff appears to be a long shot. TCU has won seven in a row since its loss at Baylor. The Frogs, who beat Kansas State (9-3, 7-2) by 21 points last month, earned their share of the Big 12 title with a 55-3 win over Iowa State on Saturday. Petty completed 34 of 40 passes with a touchdown and an interception a week after getting knocked out of the Bears last game with a concussion. Not medically cleared to play until Friday, Petty showed no ill effects of the concussion. He put his head down and plunged in for a 1-yard TD run only 1:35 in, capping an opening 81-yard drive that put Baylor ahead to stay. While Big 12 Commissioner Bob Bowlsby presented Baylor its championship trophy -- after ggiving one to TCU about 90 miles away more than seven hours earlier -- Florida State was wrapping up its win in the ACC championship game and Ohio State was in firm control in the Big Ten title game.dddddddddddd Those are the two teams between TCU and Baylor in the playoff rankings. Baylor fans booed the commissioner, voicing their displeasure of having to share a title even with the head-to-head victory. The Big 12 is the only of the power-five conferences without a championship game, but the 10-team league has a round-robin schedule and is the only one in which everybody plays each other during the regular season. For the fourth year in a row since the Big 12 went to 10 teams, the title wasnt decided until finishing the regular season on the first weekend in December when other leagues play championship games. And for the second year in a row, the Bears won at home in a finale, this time in their new campus stadium on the banks of the Brazos River after beating Texas 30-7 last year at Floyd Casey Stadium to earn a spot in the Fiesta Bowl. Jake Waters was 22 of 27 for 300 yards and two touchdowns for Kansas State, which was trying for its second Big 12 title in three years. The Wildcats had to share their 2012 championship because of a miserable night their last visit to Waco two years ago. They were 10-0 and ranked No. 1 in the BCS standings before a 52-24 loss. Baylor won its 16th consecutive home game, matching Alabama for the longest current streak. The Bears are 6-0 in their new stadium even after scoring few than 45 points there for the first time. ' ' '
