If you had a Big 12 squabble between Texas Tech mega booster Cody Campbell and commissioner Brett Yormark on this year's bingo card, you're doing pretty good.
In an odd exchange, Campbell, who is also the chair of the school's board of regents, went after the conference over a scheduling matter. The Sept. 18 football game between the Red Raiders and Houston Cougars will be under the Friday Night Lights on FOX.
