Almost every state in the Big 12 is detestable.  We can tolerate Kansas because we're from there.  I, for one, will be glad to be rid of the state of Texas.  I rough ridin' hate Texas.

The Big 12 sucked.  Good riddance.  What will I miss the most about the Big 12?  Probably how much I hated it.  It's been run like a second rate fundraiser for the state of Texas since its inception and allowed itself to be walked on each and every year of its miserable existence.  Au revoir you stinking piece of steaming crap.

mine will be the accessablility of going to the close away games.  i can't tell you how many time i have gone to either linkin or lowrentz for a game.  even columbia is really close.  you can easily drive to and from these places.  granted ku will most likely be in our conference, but i hate how our other closest league members may be in places like:  fort collins, colorado springs, fort worth, laramie, and albequerque.   :barf:

I know its sounds like fun to sit and cry in our beer like we are doing.  In the end we will be fine.  We won't end up in a lesser conference.  This is like one big poker game.  Colorado is the guy who gets all excited, thinks they have a great hand and bets the farm only to find out they got beat.  Nebraska hasn't officially announced yet and no one else for that matter except Colorado.  But wait, Colorado is so awesome at everything they do.  I'll cry when all this is official, right now nothing but a lower tier university has left.  Might have done the conference a favor.

One of my fondest memories over the past 40 years of watching all KSU sports was watching the overall turn of events in the 90's....mad as hell that Nub fans were buying large blocks of season tickets just for one game (they did it for FB BB & WBB)...then watching the amount of red gradually disappear in the stands over the years.

I've said all along that the Big 8 admin saw dollar signs and sold out to UT.  Turns out those dollars were peanuts in the end...UT STILL got the greater amount of money.  Not bitter, but never was a Big 12 fan like I was with the Big 8.  The Big 8 might not have been generating as much money, but they had RESPECT as the overall toughest conference in the country to play in.
