What was it like to play Texas, Oklahoma and Texas Tech every year?

Must have been exciting.

I think that conference might have worked out given enough time.

It is still odd that you are in our conference.

Both of your football programs are pretty much worthless.

What is your issue?

Just thought we added Missouri and Texas A&M for the 't.v numbers."

They literally suck at sports.

Why did the SEC do this?

They never had anything to begin with.

It's embarrassing to our conference.

So many questions.

It seems two conferences have passed the SEC up and the ACC may be neck and neck with the SEC this year in terms of quality of play

This is not 2011 anymore Auburn the SEC is at best the third best conference

That conference would work fine if TX would not strangle the other members.

Mizzou had an article not to long ago on their departure. It was a no-brainer. They left the Big12 and the $14mil share to about $30mil SEC share which is up to about $40mil now...

Meanwhile TX and the Longhorn Network keep on pocketing all the money in the Big12.

It actually sucked. Texas fans don't care about football, just there online T-shirt fans that talk trash. They tailgate for a bit and then go to 6th street. Oklahoma fans care, but Norman absolutely sucks. Texas Tech has some hot arse women, but it takes a good week to get the smell of Lubbock out of your clothes.

So in general...it sucked. All the stadiums sucked accept for Sips, NEB, CU, and OU. All the communities sucked outside of Austin and Boulder. (TCU wasn't part of the Big 12 when I was at A&M). Nobody wanted to travel outside TX to see any games. TX teams traveled well and tailgated well, but only when playing inside of the state. You get almost the same turnout playing Rice or SMU as you get for most of the Big 12. The OU vs. TX game is only big because it happens during the state fair in Dallas.
