LSU in the SEC is upset with what they been dealt. Sort of like TA&MU when in the Big XII. Jealously will do things to schools and we may benefit from it!

If we get LSU, ASU, and AZ State, my head would explode.

If we got LSU (when the world comes to an end), They'd just get Florida State or something. I also hear there's interest in the SEC going after Houston to dive into Texas more.

Yay, they can have Houston, and WVU also.. the Big 12 will then gladly take LSU and Arkansas off their hands (when the world comes to an end)

Found something interesting today. When the Big 10 expanded, it only invited member schools of the Association of American Universities (AAU). The AAU is like this big super elitist group of universities that basically say "We're better than you". Two universities that are geographically located next to the Big 10, members of the AAU, and current P5 schools are Iowa State and Kansas. When the Big XII finally goes tits up, I can see those two teams being invited. Any thoughts?

I would trade both of those schools to big 10 right now for Nubb and Mizz back.

Tulane is laughably below the Big XII athletically. Laughably. If we invite them, blow the entire thing up yesterday.

There's about as much of a chance of K-State going independent as there is that happening.

OT, but reading landthieves.com is downright depressing in terms of how low their regard for us, ISU, Baylor, and TCU is. It's really weird to see how highly they regard OU (comparo to Notre Dame, etc.), and how much they believe OU has to gain from ditching the Big XII. It's like reading a KU message board.

Tobias · « **Reply #28837 on:** August 24, 2016, 01:14:12 PM »

why is it weird that an OU message board regards OU highly?

KITNfury · « **Reply #28838 on:** August 24, 2016, 03:00:44 PM »

Schools like OU want more money, but they have no real idea why.

If we are ever in the same conference as Tulane it means something has gone horribly wrong.

Have we discussed a Big 12 Jr conference wherein the champ next season ascends to the Big 12 and the Big 12 doormat is relegated to the jr conference? We probably have discussed that.

SdK · « **Reply #28841 on:** August 24, 2016, 03:29:05 PM »

Would take.

Pretty sure we have. It would be pretty awesome even though we'd get laughed at a lot prolly

The only problem with the relegation concept is that it would probably be difficult to get lower division teams televised every week.

Would they be televised more than they are now? I think maybe. Also you could drive some interest from fans of the top tier programs (OU, UT, K-State) because we'd want to watch who we have to play next year.

KU would get dropped to the Jr. conference and never make its way back up.

The top B leaguers and bottom A leaguers would be cheating their asses off
