All expansion teams owe Texas a giant "thank you!"

Every single team that has joined the SEC over the last 30 years was able to do so because of Texas' magnanimity.

Arkansas - Realized that if you can't stop taking arse whoopings from UT, you might as well get paid
South Carolina - Warm body after FSU said no to joining with Arkansas
Texas A&M - Texas gifted them an escape pod after Deloss told their Pringles man, "we'll take good care of you." See also Arkansas
Oklahoma - We generously insisted they be accepted with us, despite their subpar academics and lack of AAU status. SEC capitulated, of course.

You're welcome, fellow expansion programs!

"Seminoles coach Bobby Bowden did not want to face the likes of Alabama, Auburn and Florida in the same season, and the SEC wouldn’t budge on realignment logistics.

The ACC could offer a lucrative basketball purse, and fewer members meant splitting conference revenue with fewer partners. Bowden openly admitted he preferred the ACC to the SEC due to the ferocious competitiveness of the latter."

Texas thought they were like Notre Dame and could have it all to themselves but in the end they came crawling to the Daddy conference begging.

Be prepared, because evey SEC team is gonna have right after taking down UGA, Bama, LSU, as their season priority..

Texas as about the next biggest goal..

To break a foot off up Bevo's middling to lower tier @ss..as their favorite season goal.

FYI.

They live in a dream world.

Arkansas is 5-2 against Texas in football since joining the SEC.

In fact, it's been 5330 days since Texas beat Arkansas in football. Bush Jr. was president. "Whatever You Like" by T.I. was the #1 single on the charts.

Since that win they've been outscored 71-28.

How does it feel knowing that Mizzou had a vote in determining the fate of Texas athletics?
