that's true, we know it isn't money driving this at all

FWIW, that wasn't a "what I want".....I'm just wondering how realistic it is. IF the league stays together I don't see how they wouldn't try to get back to 12 to keep the championship game

They don't want the championship game.

According to Chip Brown at Orangebloods, it looks like now A&M has the ball in their court. Texas has committed to the Big 12 verbally, so now A&M has to decide what to do.

This was just confirmed on 810 by KK per a conversation with KState president Schulz

Oklahoma to the North.

This is exactly what i said would happen.

Kietzman: More disparity on the way.

Seven schools having to offer attractive financial package to Texas, A&M, and OU.

Move OU and OSU to the North

Kinda odd that they don't want to add anybody. I know Colorado was an underperformer but when you take out Nebraska I would think everybody would lose a little revenue per team

If remaining Big 12 stays together it is a better bbk league without Neb and Colo.

UPKS says "no talk" of adding back 2 teams.

I hadn't heard that. I haven't been following this as closely as some have though.

810 saying if the numbers hold up the Big 12 North schools will all make more money than Nebraska.

ROFL

Which is dumb. It brings in huge revenue and legitimizes your conference champ in the eyes of voters.

If there are only 10 teams, there won't be a North and South anymore.

Wah? The Big 10 has found its way into a lot of Championships without it.

Mizzou would have gone to a national title game had there been to champ. game.

Why not? They'll still want a Championship Game.
