I still have a weird zen-like sense that we'll be okay.

 :dunno:

I've been that way until OU went off the deep end.

i mean, this probably goes in the "gpc thread of the day" but if this is in any way accurate, holy f'ing christ.  I suppose if/when MU leaves we'll just add SE Missouri ST in order to capture the Missouri market......

is what I'm hearing. Replacements for the five teams leaving:

TCU, SMU, Houston, Tulsa, And Air Force.

What i'm hearing is that in order to keep present contracts with the Big 12 we must reach 10 teams. Remaining teams feel the logistics of these teams is a continuation of the Big12 brand. Will be keeping the states the same plus adding Colorado.


 :love:  would take, same markets + Colorado =   :kstategrad: 
that conference would be like going from a respectable footprint to a Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) clubfooted baby footprint.  eff keeping the same states if you downgrade quality.

 :flush: :flush: :flush: get a clue
idiots like you ignore what is driving this whole deal.  Its not number of states included in a conference.

They probably are.  But I don't know.  I think we'll get in somewhere or something.

Just a guess.

Friday night I saw an absolute shithoused Kent State guy.  Passed out and took a nap at the bar, friends carried him out, dropped 3 napkins under seat.  I think this is my own future watching Wednesday night football: Kansas State/Colorado State.

Yeah, it could be.  There will always be a little zeal in there that I can't kill.

No, I'm not sitting in a corner, rocking back and forth saying, "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay..."

I know what the ramifications are.  I guess I just think that there's some sort of solution out there that no one's kicking around.

Again, I think we've got good guys leading the charge.  I feel confident that even if it's a crap option, they picked the least crappy one.

They're SEC guys.  They know what's up.

What are the realistic options we have left?

Is the Big 12-as-we-know-it destroyed? What super conferences have spots left? Do those conferences even want to go to 16?

It think the best shot people have been throwing around is KU/KSU/MU to SEC.

I mean, if you really think about it, the SEC has, like, really crappy options if they don't move fast.  Really bad.  Cincy/Louisville/Baylor bad.

The ACC locking down has really screwed them.  Hard.
