You're late

Since Colorado, Texas Light, Nebraska, Missouri have left, their combined CCG record is 0-4.

I guess relying on other programs for revenue is better than competing in sports.

History Lesson for the People who like to live in the land of the Ignorant.

The SWC was created out of the SIAA. The SIAA also birthed the SoCon which ultimately led to the SEC. Texas and A&M were the only SWC members included in the SIAA. When Texas and A&M left the association it was the early 1900's and Birmingham Alabama was the only industrialized city in the South with heavy industry. This is important because Texas and A&M attempted to pull Ole Miss and LSU to the SWC along with them. They had a meeting set up in Dallas but Ole Miss and LSU never arrived and stayed attached with Bama.
Texas invited Arkansas and the Oklahoma schools. I have never found the truthful reasons why the Oklahoma schools left but they left pretty quickly to the MVC which created the Big 8.
Even with Arkansas and Texas schools the SWC for the most of the early 20th century was the conference that all conferences looked to as the premier football conference. It was superior in every aspect because of the rivarlies, location and more importantly the football. Doak Walker, Sammy Baugh, Bobby Layne and Davey O'Brein came out of this conference. Names that are forever memorialized on trophies handed out at the end of the year.
The first blow to the Southwest conference came when the Dallas Cowboys entered the NFL, second came with the introduction of Texas Tech, third came with the introduction of Houston and the final blow came with the introduction of nefarious recruiting tactics first done by Ron Meyer and SMU and then Jackie Sherril and A&M.
The most important blow of them all was the 1984 Supreme Court ruling that gave the right to broadcast games to the universities and not the NCAA. With the universities having control they could bundle the rights to the conferences who then had the ability to sell the rights to television networks like ESPN. The main university behind this was the University of Oklahoma. You have to ask OU why they believed in would be better for them to control their television rights. From everything I heard college football even on the radio was better before the ruling then after.

Texas had nothing to do with the destruction of the Southwest Conference. It was an amazing conference while it lasted but like the Big 8 is has a continued legacy in the Big XII.
The SWC nor the Big 8 will die until the Big XII dies.

UT destroys everything they touch.

Texas doesn't want to play us bc they know we'll skullfrick them on national TV....that's the only reason.

But it's A&M that's afraid to play Texas....

We may not all be Mizzou fans or TAMU fans but we all hate Texas.

I hope Mizzou plays Texas in a bowl and beats them by 50.

Texas is the most arrogant and entitled athletic program in world history. Think about that.

Nobody else comes close.
