Sorry, pdiddy! I was distracted by how we're kicking arse in the bevo tourney game!

Don't tell Benny though - he thinks we do nothing but choke in March.

The point you are making now is NOT the point you started out with. It morphed as each variation you pulled out of your arse was white washed with citations and facts.

Thank you for hammering home my point. I called the move for TCU and WVU a lateral one - perhaps that was misleading to you. Perhaps that has a different meaning to you. The point I was trying to make - the point that was completely ignored by you - is that I think the transition to the new league for TCU and WVU will be less turbulent than yours to the SEC. While their records over the next 10 years will not be identical to their records over the previous 10, they will nonetheless see similar success in the Big 8. This is something I believe. So...the connection I am making is that when a team can switch leagues and see similar results - which I BELIEVE these two teams will do, then that is what I equate to a lateral move. And I do not back off of my belief that the step up from Big East and MW to Big 12 is not as great as the step up from Big 12 to SEC. That's not to say that the top of the Big 12 isn't close to the SEC's top. OU and OSU are. But the quality depth is not that much greater than the other 2 conferences. And in the middle and bottoms of the league is where those two will make their way. Disagree. It's fine. That's just my opinion.

Well you're a stubborn one, I will give you that.

The Mountain West Confernece is not even close to the Big 12.

The Big East is NOT close to the Big 12.

WVU and TCU are making a much larger step up in competition that Mizzou and aTm.

You can argue its your "opinion" all day long. You are entitled to it and you are also entitled to be completely wrong based on everything that has been already argued in this thread.

That's the crux really. You are holding onto an opinion that has been factually raped of all its credibility.

I'm done with your circular logic Ben. Off to watch Mizzou finish of this shellacking they are putting on OSU in the Big 12 tourney...how did Arkansas do today in the SEC tourney Ben?

You continue to reinforce what I know about your fan base. You grossly underestimate what you are about to face week-in and week-out in the sec. Rude awakening

No one at Mizzou misunderstands what a grind it will be to play in the SEC. Most all Mizzou fans I know are very respectful of the challenges thisw will be. Do you not see how incredibly hypcritical this sounds when you think that there will be no week in and week out grind for teams coming from the Big Least and the MWC, the MWC Ben. Holy hell you are in over your head here.



The facts however are this:

The MWC is a mid major conference. The Big 12 is the 2nd best football conference behind the SEC.

The Big East is a little better than the MWC.

The only possible reason you would form the opinion you have is it validates your inner flame of hate towards Mizzou and somehow, in the corner of your very strange mind( ad hominem!), makes perfect sense.

Thats cool and all but dont expect people to not call you out or to take you seriously when you are so intellectually dishonest.


SEC
Big 12
B1G
PAC
ACC
BE?

Where is the MWC in this ranking?


Thanks for the laughs Ben.

This thread demands that David Boren travel to Morgantown and poses with West Virginia President James P. Clements so they can tell us how many combined National Merit Scholars they have.

So the step up from the 2nd Best BCS conference to the 1st is greater than the step up from a mid major to the 2nd best BCS conference?

And you call us "homers"...

Some of you Hogs are a disgrace to all things intelligent and logical.

Don't laugh. The good citizens of West Virginia can sell a few hundred porch couches per township and raise the money to pay one or two to go to WV. Boren can show them his blueprint. If it's possible to pay them to live in Oklahoma for a few years the same can be done in WV.

God, Benji, go finger your vagina already.

People forget TCU has been on the big stage in bowl games and held their own.

They also have Texas talent on their roster......

No one forgets that. They still played in a crappy conference. It's the whole meat grinder SEC argument. They won't be top tier in the Big Who frickin Cares.
