Right now, the only Big-12 team that is a much better team is Oklahoma State. Iowa State is better, but NDSU on a good day, could give them a scare and a possible defeat. Oklahoma and West Virginia would be favorable match-ups for the Bison.

The combination of the WWC and Big-12, gives NDSU better recruiting pull as this will become the second best Division I conference in the NCAA. If the PAC-12 listens to some of its coaches, expect them to be joining the WWC/Big-12 party in the future too.
