I'm happy the horns can play in front of Houston fans but the opponent is disappointing. Would have rather seen A&M or LSU.
Few reasons: 1) Austin and College Station have no pro teams. Houston Does. 2) UT and A&M are historically good and UH is not so there isn't a...
I think you make a lot of great points but I feel like they might prioritize expanding east in order to balance out the conference geographically....
So? All that shows is that UT is already popular in Houston. Tickets started selling like crazy when the rumor came out a month ago that the Texas...
Sources? There is 0% chance. I would have said it was possible when the big 12 was trying to replace A&M but they will never add a 5th texas team....
They picked up West Virginia instead of Louisville. Rumor was that they could have picked up Florida St and Clemsen a year before. Those two...
I don't understand? Why did TCU make it to the big 12? There were many factors. They are the only team in Ft. Worth and OU is big in that market....
My point is that history is what makes games interesting. That is what makes you form a rivalry. Geography does not make a rivalry in itself....
Texas vs Ohio St is a rivalry. Texas vs SMU is not.
Boise makes no sense. Again, it's a very weak program from a TV perspective. No new meaningful market. Teams are going to be very picky since they...
The big 12 scheduled great out of conference games but they lost them all. UCLA, Arkansas, Alabama, Florida St, Auburn. BYU would have been a...
I think one of the ultimate protections for the 4 team playoff was to avoid situations like in 05 (I believe) where you had 3 undefeated teams....
You just can't have 5 schools from one state if you want a conference to seem like a "national" conference. They also don't bring much value from...
It would have made no difference.
Yea. That team could come back from a one score deficit.
It will never be Boise. They have 0 value TV wise. Adding 2 teams to the conference is going to reduce the amount of money each team gets in their...
HIGHLY skeptical of the report. Man if the AAC loses Cincy they will just almost become the Conference USA East. UCONN and South Florida will be...
It would also add another overall win. Ohio St finished with more wins than Baylor and TCU, period. The old bcs computers (5 of 6 actually) have...
I think it's a good system. The problem with the polls is the mentality was, "How many spots should a team drop?" and not necessarily, "Ok what...
I can't believe this thread will go on for another year. Really thought Clowney could end it by coming back and silencing critics. Now, have to do...
