So you're saying changing conferences can be explained by something other than "biggest school involved is bad?" I totally agree.

When Texas files a complaint with the SEC commissioner that other teams and fans doing the " horns down" sign is mean and instead of a new rule banning it they are laughed out of the parking lot.

Since they’re from Austin, it’ll probably be when they ask an SEC lineman what pronouns they prefer.

I was looking at the list of SEC champions and two things struck me. First, no team that has joined the SEC since 1932 has ever won an SEC championship; and second, only six teams have won an outright SEC championship since Ole Miss in 1963. So really, Alabama, UGA, Florida, LSU, Tennessee, and Auburn are the only ones that have won championships in sixty years.
So, that's 91 years...doesn't look like any of the new teams are gonna be winning any conference championships anytime soon.

That is not what I am saying at all
I am saying SEC and ACC evolved from a family so there is continuity from the 1800's till today. They still play each other tho now in different conferences and still play their former conference mates in FCS.
Utx could have been part of that continuity had they stayed in the SIAA and been a team player. They left to have control, because control was more important than continuity. Have you ever heard of a Pyrrhic Victory (you win the battle but lose the war)? That is the Utx mindset simplified.
UTx left to create the SWC so they could have control. They invited LSU and Rebs, but they stayed in the SIAA. They wrecked what was a pretty good conference because they could not let others do well too. When things started happening with the B1G wanting to force Notre Dame to join they could have spun off the lesser schools and taken 3 TX schools and Arkansas to the Big 8 and been the junior partners. That did not work so now their ego has killed off two good conferences.
Alabama is the best CFB team in the South
Kentucky is the best MCBB team in the South
Tennessee is the best WCBB team in the South
Even with competitive alpha status they still know they are only as strong as the weakest member so they historically row with each other than against each other.
For whatever reason Utx (fans and especially administrators) never learned what most kids in grade school learn in the school yard.

1932 SEC forms with 13
Sewanee drops out and goes lower division
Tulane drops our to focus on academics
Bumbles drop as Bear and Bobby get to feudin
That is SEC from say 32 to 92 (for easy math)
So (60 / 90) * 100 = 66.7% (roughly 2/3's)
Hogs have had some near misses (close your eyes for UT fumble game)
SC has had to build from the bottom and still had some chances with OBC
TAMU & Tigers are still pretty new. Tigers have a D but no O, dunno bout TAMU
UK had a shot couple of times in the 70's
Rebs and State have been Top 5 in the US in the past decade
Only school with really long odds is Dores and you will learn they will not win ATL but they will knock somebody else from getting there.

I see Aggies are making a desperate bid to make their big brothers in the SEC hate their big brother coming over from the Biggish 12. It's just their usual stream of lies.
When Texas entered what became the Big 12, they did get many changes made to conference rules from the Big 8 (I wish we could have come up with a better name than Big XX). Texas proposed the rules, and every school voted for them except for Nebraska whom the rules favored. Texas didn't impose anything.
For some reason, Texas had the mojo over Nebraska in football. Osborne hated Texas and they're close to the Big 10, so they hit the ejection seat.
The only other team that fled because of Texas was A&M. They did so after agreeing to stay and accepting the offer of more money from the conference: an offer that Texas and OU declined to accept because they didn't want to punish the other schools who stayed. A&M jumped before the end of the three years they promised to stay.
I think Missouri left for what they saw as greener pastures. I don't think they had any particular grudge or fear of Texas.
Colorado jumped because, as the realignment started, speculation was that they would have trouble finding a landing spot. Again, not fear and dread of evil Texas.
Aggies lie about Texas all the time on subjects big and small. You'll learn the truth overtime. I'll just use the example of the horns down lie.
Texas did not show up one day at conference headquarters with tears in their eyes about the mean hand gesture. No.
This happened after we played at Texas Tech. A Texas receiver scored then did the guns up gesture the Red Raiders use then holstered the gun. A guns down if you will. He was penalized 15 yards for unsportsmanlike conduct.
You can see the problem. Horns down had been an OU tradition for decades. Aggies and other teams came late to the gesture. Texas had ignored, been annoyed, or been amused by it for a long time without asking for a rule change. Texas just wanted the rule equitably applied.
Aggies, so concerned about feeling more manly than everybody else, distorted the story into the lie they tell over here all the time.
Nobody at Texas thinks the way Aggies want you to believe. We have our share of arrogance and we actually are among the special football schools, but nobody expects kowtowing or any other special treatment.
I'm anxious to play the schools of the SEC. I'm also more excited than I thought I'd be about dominating A&M again in our biggest in-state rivalry.

Missouri did indeed head for greener pastures, but mainly because bevo had taken a big shite on all of the Big XII grazing ground. The instability was created by the dildo network.
Texas wants to be in a conference, but they also want to feel special and different. You guys ARE special, no doubt about it.

Why are you blaming Texas instead of Nebraska? LHN was an ESPN bribe to keep Texas in the Big 12 after Nebraska declared their intention to to Big 10. They literally left first and created the instability. The conference was dead when that happened.

What kind of revisionist history is this? There were grand plans in Austin for LHN including televising high school games and making it a giant recruiting tool.
Posted on 2/17/23 at 9:14 am to Mr Sausage
Nebraska announced their move in June 2010. ESPN announced the LHN in January 2011.
Dodds had approached the Big 12 and then later A&M specifically about a network and was rebuffed both times.
