The quality and competitiveness of the Big 12 Conference in college football have varied over the years. Historically, the Big 12 has been considered one of the "Power Five" conferences, along with the ACC, Big Ten, Pac-12, and SEC. These conferences are known for having some of the strongest and most competitive college football programs in the United States.

The Big 12 has had periods where it produced successful and nationally competitive teams. Programs like the University of Oklahoma, University of Texas, Texas Tech, and others have had strong football traditions and have consistently been competitive.

However, the Big 12 has also experienced fluctuations in performance and membership changes. Some schools have left the conference, and others have joined, impacting its overall competitiveness. Additionally, the conference has had years where it didn't have a team make it to the College Football Playoff, which determines the national champion.

The perception of the Big 12's football strength can vary from season to season, but it remains a significant conference in college football, and its member schools have a strong football tradition. To get the most up-to-date assessment of the Big 12's football performance, you should consult recent sports news and analysis.
