Mizzou wasn't a geographical mess in the Big 12 North. They are an odd ball in the SEC East though. If they moved to the B1G they wouldn't be out of place either.


We make sense geographically in 3 different conferences. We are a better fit for the SEC than the B1G though.

The only thing their business school teaches is how to alienate every business partner you've ever had

I equate the Big 12 to the Big 10 without the money or academia. Vast majority of Big 12 is incredibly boring small stadiums and atmosphere.

The bottom line is that if the Big 12 broke up, none of the P4 conferences would even want the majority of their members. Texas and OU should be embarrassed they don't win this shitty conference every year.

Tm should drop the "we left because of Texas" line. Why not just say "we left because the SEC is a much better conference than the Big 12 and they wanted us." aTm is clearly better off now in the SEC than they were 5 years ago.


No shite. But I am not sure they realize how bitchy they sound towing the line that Sarge wants to two.

Shaddup bitch. You know the big 12 would still be the way it was if your dumbass greedy leaders hadn't gotten caught trying to destroy it.

I'm surprised a Baylor fan hasn't white-knighted for the Longhorns yet

Not rich, but definitely uptight and pious in that Baptist way that tends to grate on your patience. They're also an EXTREMELY low football iq fanbase, even compared to the Horns. It's shocking how unfamiliar they are with the basics. They boo the coin toss outcome for fricks sake.

Advice. Move on, or move back. No one here even knows that's a conference.

The GOR is the only thing holding it together. They never thank Mizzou for that though.


No they don't. The other four of the schools that were going to be left behind (ku, KSU, ISU, BU) are still too ticked/shocked that MU found an escape pod that they still can't see straight. Thanks Aggies.

The B1G would put together steps for them to get AAU status.

CIC is what a school can not get with the B1G until they are a full member of the conference


The B1G/AAU interrelationship is not a 2 way street. B1G wants its members to be AAU members but cannot cause it - they are maybe 1/5 to 1/6 of the overall AAU membership. AAU doesn't care about athletic affiliation. If if did Nebraska wouldn't have been kicked out of the AAU within its first year of B1G membership.

Agree re CIC.
