    A two-loss SEC team isn't even going to compete for their conference these days.   Big 12 champ would have to win the CCG in multiple overtimes against a 3-4 loss team, to make that scenario happen.

    I’m talking 2 loss big 12 vs two loss sec.  they’ll choose the sec

    And these days, based on how much of a shitshow dumpster fire the PAC has become, we win the Big 12, even with two losses, we are liable to be in the CFP.

    Two loss sec team gets in before us

  3. My 12 team league had an 8 team playoff.  I was supposed to be the two seed but due to divisional imbalance I was three.  Ended up saving me as the 7th seed got lucky and beat the 2 seed.  Leaving me with the 7 seed.  Luck is a factor

    Have any names been mentioned for a LB coach?  Hopefully we end up with 5 coaches for defense with 2 DL coaches, 2 DB coaches and a LB coach.

    Yeah I think we are tied completely to OU. They are our big rival and we cannot afford to lose them. So if they bail we must follow IMO. Sucks but there it is. 

    Disagree.  We were in a different conference for 100 years

    I think the fact this guy came from some shitty D3 school but had the drive and determination to make it to the Big 12 and not only do decently but actually succeed to the point he was poached by one of the top teams in the country speaks very highly of the guy.  
     

    Making fun of where a guy comes from and not what he's done when he's gotten there is a shitty thing shitty people do in business and life

     

    Especially if your team plays in a town called Stoolwater

    Again, no shit.

    It will be hilarious to open this board if you guys change leagues and watch everyone bitch and complain about 11PM kicks in Corvallis.

    Will Texas be fine? Of course. Is Iowa State at risk in a major realignment? Of course. None of that changes the high likelihood that Texas will be worse off by blowing up the Big 12 in order to play a bunch of schools 1500 miles away that don’t care about football.

     

    I live in Seattle so that works for me.  But that’s gonna happe. Once a year at best. Pac isn’t my first choice. I’d pick the b1g or sec

    No shit.

    That still doesn't change the reality that you're better off controlling your own league than riding coat tails and playing a bunch of schools as shitty as those you mentioned that are even farther away.

    Again your school is riding coat tails.  We bring something to the table wherever we go.

    If Texas or Oklahoma joins another conference, they become Nebraska.  It's pretty simple.  Maybe not that bad, but they will absolutely be something less.

    No other Big 12 school is in a position to really go out and join one of the more well paid leagues.  KU fans like to think they are, but only Texas and OU have the cache to name their destination and go there.

    Anyone who looks at the Pac 12 and thinks they're better off there is a complete and utter moron.  That conference is a fucking mess, and is lesser than the Big 12 in every measure other than "how desirable is this city for a vacation?".

    Say what?   We are in one of the top 3 ha football states.  We will be fine wherever we go.  Your worry is you’ll be left without a seat on the gravy train.  You, KSU, baylor, tcu, etc.   you’re all in a power 5 because we decided to stay.

    I don't think much happens either.  I don't think anyone, other than schools who got out of currently non-existant leagues, or made the leap up to P5 is really any better off.  There are OU fans that like to bitch, but any sane one of them knows they haven't gone to 4/5ths of the playoffs in the SEC.  Mega conferences are completely pointless, and I think that ship has sailed.

    Some kind of group collective bargaining for TV rights among the current power schools seems more likely than another road of wild west, cloak and dagger 2010 style realignment shit.

    Agreed that OU would be worse off than Texas due to in-state talent.

    Let’s play a game...name an assistant coach you believe deserves to keep their job and why?
     

    Drayton because of Bijan 

     

    Herb hand.  We looked great in 2018. Can’t explain 2019
