It will be striking how different the big 12 would look if they were the beneficiaries of the ACCs mismanagement. All the new schools slot in above the remaining schools from the old Big 12 in terms of their football program. (with the obvious texas, OU, maybe OSU exceptions) It's not like this is going to help Kansas, Kansas State, Iowa State, Baylor, Texas Tech, etc be more competitive in football. I guess it's better to suck in the fourth best conference than an "other" conference, but will it help those schools compete in football long term? Seems doubtful. Conference titles seem further away now than ever.
