I'm starting to believe that Nebraska can no longer attract top talent. Nothing special about that group or their coach.

If you are proud of beating Arkansas at any point in the last ten years in football then you need serious therapy.

Say what you want about the rest of Big12 but Arizona St last year wouldve spanked anybody in the playoffs except Ohio State. And Texas

It’s also in a better position to keep what is has than the current ACC.


That's not really saying much. The ACC has still got some big-draw brands in it.

the game was under contract to be played in Indianapolis. the arrowhead folks cold called cincy and offered to buy out the contract and give them a bigger guarantee. cincy took them up on it. cincy gets 75% of the ticket sales of what looked like a sold out 76,400 seat stadium. great move by the cincy AD. cincy still has 7 home games this year. they needed to have won the game and came close.

That’s the weakness for a lot of the ACC. It’s anchored by several big, underpaid programs that want to leave.

Nippert Field holds 38000.

Arrowhead twice that.

Easy financial decision but may have cost a win.

The Big 12 and its fans harbor a grudge against the SEC, taking every opportunity to criticize the league. If Baylor can beat Auburn, it will be as if their own team won the title.
Well it will be a feather in their cap to beat a 9-time national champ.
