Jimmy and Joe are getting a lot of oil money to represent the best state in the in the best conference!
Since when is Texas the best state in the best conference? I think Texas and Ok are coming in a bit overconfident. For example, looking down on Mississippi schools because they are in a poor state like Mississippi. Wait until you have to play them the week after playing Alabama or LSU. These "average" schools tend to pop up and bite you in the arse when you're not expecting it. This will apply even more if the SEC goes to a 9 game schedule. I suspect that both Texas and OU will have to learn this lesson the hard way at first.

I don't think this is necessarily an unfair statement other than to point out that most of the schools in the Big XII are usually about Mississippi or State's level.
SEC people believe that if Ole Miss or State were to play in the Big XII that they would be top teams. Not sure I buy that. Whether OU and Texas will be "hungover" after a Bama or LSU game is certainly something to consider but I don't think schools like Ole Miss and State will "out talent" Oklahoma and Texas on a routine basis.
