This is fact not fiction, so all the talk of the Buffs to the PAC forgets it was Big Red started the dam bursting in the Big 12.


Technically, it was Missouri flirting with the Big 10 that caused Beebe to get the "are you in or out" answer...at which point, Nebraska said "we're out".

I would like to come out in support of Randolph Duke. He's a little obsessed, but what the hell. Those aggy pukes turned their backs on their brethren and invited the devil into our great state. They couldn't get it done on the field, so they had to try to latch on to a supposed "super conference" to make up the gap. $#@! that. We're Texans first; longhorns and aggies second. Enemies on the football field, but friends and colleagues off it. Now, I can't look at any aggy without reflexive contempt. They have cheated us out of a cool annual tradition, one that I looked forward to and enjoyed every year. So I say $#@! 'em. Expose their asses. Draw a line around Collie Station and fence it off. Call it East Louisibama or whatever in the $#@!. They're dead to me.







Shouldn't it be west Louisiana and west Alabama?

Technically it was some Nebraska folks meeting some B1G folks playing golf together during the bowl season in 2009 and 2010 that got this round of realignment going. When the Blair Report leaked in 2009 the 2 names not on it were Nebraska and Notre Dame. This was because the B1G had already decided on these two and the Blair Report was to vet the next schools should they go all the way to 16.

Sun Tsu 101, shake the bushes in the front when you have already planned your attack from the back.
