The majority of Big 12 quarterbacks eased into their 2026 season against Group of Six or FCS defenses in Week 1. Oklahoma State starter Drew Mestemaker was the only quarterback to play a defense outside of the power conferences and lose.
Week one of college football had no shortage of storylines, from a controversial finish in Ann Arbor that caused Michigan to drop out of the top 25 to blowouts across the country.
