Texas Tech on top, Baylor at TWO!!!

Quandre Diggs is upset that the conference's big dog didn't make the list and he has suggestions to fix it:

I think I agree with BON's assessment though:

Cultural change in a fanbase isn't an easy thing to accomplish and shuffling where the pieces sit is probably limited politically and economically. Patterson and Disney may be able to help a little bit, but the bet here is that Texas fans will remain mediocre in impacting home games -- that's just Texas football fan culture.

Jesus, what an anemic, apathetic conference

And holy frick, how sad is it that the "top 5" is literally half the conference? How anyone could be happy in this current big12 (other than maybe baylor) is beyond me.

And that none of the three most viable chess pieces in future realignment are in that list.

I hope the SEC continues to dodge that bullet.

I can understand Tech being #1 on that list since they can become very hostile (of course depending on the opponent). But Baylor landing in the top 5 is a joke.

The author seemed to put Bayor in there purely off them selling 9k student tix out of the 13k total students at the school to the Texas game.

My apologies for insulting that dear old baylor tarp

It's been a loyal fan through some lean years. It didn't deserve that.
