With the departure of Nebraska and Colorado, Oklahoma has made the most of it, earning 12 selections to the 2011 Preseason All-Big 12 team.
Heisman hopeful Landry Jones highlights the Sooner selections, with All America hopefuls Ryan Broyles and Travis Lewis not far behind.
Meanwhile, Mack Brown cleaned house in the offseason, hiring nearly an entirely new staff. Texas hopes to rebound from its worst season since Mack Brown was hired in 1998. The Longhorns have three 1st Team selections and seven 2nd Team selections.
The Aggies and Cowboys have 8 and 7 overall selections, respectively.
