I disagree. Push at best. WV will be behind Okie and Tx and TCU, may reach a conference title game.

Besides that small little technicality that will put even MORE cash into your coffers. But other than that, sure, you'd be happier with the chromosome challenged gene puddle from wva.

This topic was discussed ad nauseum on texasgs.com.
Evidence of why the "upgrade" argument is dumbassary at best.
Bottom line: If TCU and WVU are "upgrades" somebody has to be a downgrade when they enter the conference if they are only replacements, rather than additions, like the SEC.
Either TCU and WVU will become mediocre or somebody else will. It's mathematically impossible to get a better overall conference performance by replacing two teams.
Recent on-the-field results mean jack shite. I had no less than 10 longhorns and several WVU inbreeds arguing that conference realignment is about getting better performing teams. But, they all agreed that adding Notre Dame and its massive mediocrity since Lou "The Shower" Holtthssth, would be the best any conference could do, yet not one of them would admit the "why" in that equation.

Adding those two to the SEC now makes them MUCH more attractive in Texas and Okie area......don't kid yourself.
