Texas = Big XII. Not necessarily a bad thing, but absolutely what it is.
I just don't get it. MU has been trying to get into the Big 10 since when? Late 90's? Why is OK for MU to shop themselves to the Big 10/SEC and finally up & leave a conference that they felt was falling apart, yet when OU/UT believe the conference is falling apart and they do the exact same thing it's not OK? Just doesn't make any sense.

I'm really glad MU feels they got into a better, more stable conference. Really, I am. I hope they do well in the SEC. The only aspect of it I hate is the loss of the MU/KU rivalry because it is one of the greatest rivalries in the country. But, outside of that, conference realignment is of little meaning to me. I don't root for a conference, I root for a team. Sure, I like to see the conference as a whole do well, but you'll never hear me chanting "Big 12! Big 12!".....even if it's a KU accomplishment.
