It definitely does, something they fail to understand or accept.

The funniest thing about all this is that most UT fans probably believe that Florida and UGA should feel privileged that UT want them in the BIG XII and that it would be a significant upgrade from the SEC.
I'm sure Florida and UGA fans would love having to travel half way across the country to go to every away game (outside of each other of course)

This is why I can't really buy the Clemson/FSU to Big 12 talk. Texas and WVU (no offense to the bunch of quality WVU posters here) think everyone wants to join their island of lost toys.
Not to mention, isn't half that conference ex-SWC schools, which to my knowledge was the dirtiest conference to have ever graced the earth? Hell, didn't Baylor try to cover up the murder of one of their own students a while back?

There's only 4 ex SWC schools there (Texas, Tech, Baylor and TCU) but yeah, the SWC pretty much wrote the book on being dirty and nobody was innocent in that conference.

The difference is clear.
SWC: A bunch of schools located in the same state fighting for territory who want nothing more than the others to fail and will do everything possible to make it happen.
Arkansas saw the writing on the wall in the late 80's after Texas' proxies took down SMU, as did A&M. Fortunately for Arkansas, the Texas Legislature had no authority over them. A&M only went along with the Big 12 move to secure the new basketball arena (what is now Reed) and to keep An n Richards from screwing them over more than she already did (filled the entire board of regents with anti-A&M individuals to get back at Clayton Williams)

There is so much truth to this and is the core reason the Big 12 is where its at right now.
This mindset followed the SWC block into the unholy marriage between the SWC and Big 8.
The rest.....is history.

Texas fans apparently haven't come to terms with the fact that the Big 12 has the worst collection of universities of all the major leagues now
It appears they have not realized that...
See why we left that shithole of a conference?

If the Gators were to ever leave, wouldn't the ACC make a shitton more sense than the Big 12?
I love how the Big 12 thinks they matter again.

In other words, if you added six nationally prominent programs to the Big XII and subtracted two from the SEC, the Big Xii would achieve parity with the SEC . . . . I guess that's about right.

Wow. Just wow.
