Actually a decent point but is the sec really to blame? The story we were “told”……. is Texas and Ou approached the sec and said let us in or we are going to the big ten. Obviously laws dictate the sec can’t approach another conference member but it could still be true. Either way the sec or Texas initiated this round of expansion. The big is going to 24 teams and for those that say fine let ‘em just know when it’s time to negotiate playoff spots they will bully the sec and get more spots.

Let the Big10 grow.
Let them have all four time zones.
Let their xtra jumbo pizza feed 24 slices.
Let our jumbo pizza feed 16 slices.
Then in the future, let’s allpare back down to 6 or 7 leagues of 10/12 teams when we realize that expansion watered down the two best conferences.
Get the old SWC, big8 and big east back and we can have radial, regional rivalries.
Usc and ND can still have their rivalry.
Go look at the sec’s schedules back in the mid 80s. They were awesome
