    This take I 100% agree with. It’s a manifestation of one of the worst parts of our culture.

    It’s also a sign of weakness from Texas and OU. They aren’t confident in their ability to lead a conference so they’d rather join a better one where they can be the ones riding coattails.

    Texas will be an also ran in the SEC. In the big 12 they still yield immense power regardless of their on field/court production (which hasn’t lived up to their opinion of themselves in quite some time).

    Same with OU except they are set up to compete better in football from day 1. IMO they obviously won’t dominate the conference and I think it’s highly unlikely they finish at the top very often.

    Do either of these schools really need the additional money? I find that hard to believe.

    Who knows why they would decide to do so, especially considering how either team would be given the benefit of the doubt when a hard-to-call CFB invite is on the line. The BCS already showed that Baylor ain't gonna' get that close call (see 2013), whereas OU (and Texas, if they could get their mess together) would, and most definitely has already, more than once (see 2020, for example).

    Seriously, they might be after that prime time Saturday evening CBS game. Who knows?

              B12 Posturing + making ESPN look kinda ratchety at the same time.

              If you've got a real power move, you make sure it's done before the news hears about it. Kinda like UT and OU to the SEC. It was done before it hit the news.

                I'm confused.

                Is ESPN behind the move to the SEC? I would have figured it would be CBS?

                      • The Big 12 might as well have sent their death certificate to ESPN. How much is a Big 12 worth without OU, Texas, and no ESPN coverage to speak of.

                          ESPN calling up the B12 remnants and trying to entice them to come over where the grass is browner lol.

                            Holster your cock dips**t. We all know ESPN is Orlando.

                            We get it: they (That would be the Total Sports Network) want to destroy the b12, er, 8 (as in defamation) so Tulsa can get the prime time Thursday evening slot over what remains of that hash stain, right? Makes perfect sense.

                            Your turn...
