Yep....Texas fricked it up. Colorado always wanted to go west and had a chance to do it so they took the opportunity.
Nebraska was tired of having to deal with Texas politics and left.
I doubt Oklahoma is satisfied and will jump to the B1G eventually.

Frankly I'm surprised OU stayed this long. Texas acting like shatheads when they had programs like OU and Nebraska always bewildered me.

Texas is the kiss of death. Consider, for a moment, what Arkansas and Texas A&M both lost when they bolted away from a conference with Texas in it.
Their biggest rivalry, particularly with the old money boosters. Gone. A recruiting showcase that could swing some good kids your way. Gone. A national spotlight game that, win or lose, puts you on a ton of TVs. Gone.
I bet you that the vast majority of us in both fan bases still think it was worth it. Texas destroyed the SWC. They are in the process of wiping out the Big-12. The only real question is what conference is foolish enough to take them in after all this?

Not unless they can politically separate themselves from okie lite. That's the anchor around their neck right now.

I didn't know OU became an AAU member overnight.
Actually what would a Nebraska fan know about the AAU, y'all got kicked out.
