I'm really going to have a hard time NOT having any of our games on Fox Sports.

Would someone like to transcribe what is being said? I can't listen to radio at work nor watch television.

 

Basically, the FSN guys are huge Texas homers saying everyone misunderstood what happened with Texas and the Pac-10. Said Texas wouldn't go without it's "friends" A&M, Tech and Baylor. Said everyone has to face reality when it comes to why Texas gets its way so much, he said its because they are a huge University and great athletics. Blah, blah, blah I think you get the picture

 

Yep, that's a pretty accurate rundown of the first 30 minutes or so.

 

Call me naive, but considering Nebraska was the first team scheduled on day one, I was expecting some Husker centric coverage, or at least a decent team rundown. Instead they open with interviews with ISU QB Austin Arnaud and former CU Buff Joel Klatt. Thanks FSN, A+ work once again!

 

Ya'll may not have liked what you saw but for anyone to suggest that Klatt is a Texas homer would be a slight stretch. There aren't many former Big 12 players that could have more of a reason to carry a grudge against Texas over Klatt for the hit he took in the Big title game that ended his college career and any chance of a NFL training camp invitation. Like I said you may have reason to be dissapointed with your coverage but Klatt is not a Horn homer.

Are we reading the same thread.... Not sure where it says Klatt is a Texas homer?

Ok this morning I'm driving to work and I'm listening to Bob Fiscoe on 610 down here in Kansas City. There talking about where the teams will finish in the Big 12. Then at the end he says that if NU or CU wins the North the Big 12 should NOT let them play in the championship game and whoever finishes second should go. He doesn't stop there he then says that NU or CU should not take up the Big 12 bowl spots either. I about drove off the fing road. Both sports talk shows down here sucks!

 

 

I heard it this morning too. I'm trying to give 610 a chance because last night was the final straw for me with 810. KK and his root for anyone playing NU drives me completely nutz - I end up getting home all pissed off. I don't know what I'm gonna do next year, they'll never talk about the 'Skers and/or B10.

 

I guess I'm gonna have to get XM or something . . . . .but I still want to get Royals and Chiefs news . . . . what to do

Either get a mart phone and listen to 1620 in the stream or download the podcast and listen to them on your mp3 player...

The local station here in KC brought up the point why didn't the big12 try to strike first. Grab Arizona and ASU and knock the pac 10 down to 8...it does make you wonder why not try to grab some talent and keep their league together...hell grab them now. Move OU and Okst to the north and just make one exception for Texass and OU to play every year...

 

While no one wanted to say it but everyone knew that Texas had too much power and new teams wouldn't have a voice. Plus any team that would have wanted to come probably would put their BCS conference in serious consideration since they would only have two teams that were worth anything. It's gonna be sweet when Texas finds out that championship games in the Pac-11 won't be played in Tx.

I bet they rotate between Jerrys place, the new stadium in Glendale, The Rose Bowl and in Seattle...

What he fails to mention is that NU wanted more than a 5 year commitment from the Big 12 and also wanted Texas to give up its TV rights to the Big 12. Texas was looking out for their best interest as was Nebraska, Colorado and don't forget Mizzou. Even though it did not work out for Mizzou.

They funny thing is, that whatever Conference Texas does join they will more than likely have to give up the TV rights.

So if people want to pin the blame on the Huskers that's their Opinion. I say Screw'em!

I really can't understand why everyone is so fired up over this "report" that Texas is Big 10 bound. First of all, I thought Nebraska was dying to get away from Texas, for hundred reasons. Second, let us not forget that the Pac 10 was Texas' first choice when the old SWC was destroyed by the school that shall not be named.

 

Don't believe everything you hear out of Kansas City, folks.

I think what Nebraska is dying to get away from is the Texas ego. I know your not going to join the Big 10 but if you were things would not be so Texas centric.

The part that is hard for me is that NU is now on the upswing and we have a good chance of redemption for some of those losses to UT.

You would think any conference would want that KU basketball program.

Most people dont care about basketball until March Madness starts. And since all conf. get bids KU should be OK from a Basketball stand point.

This expansion talk is beyond out of control!

I truly beleive that we are on the verge of beating Texas more often then losing to them. Even in our down years we played them close. I would love to see them in the Big Ten and in our division so we would play them every year.

One thing that bothers me about leaving for the Big Ten is that people will say we are running from Texas.

Big Ten Speed....

Texas sucks! I'm not just talking about UT. I'd prefer to be in a conference without any TX ties. Yes, the whole state blows!

Tell you what ive been thinking about this all day. At first i was stoaked but now im like but all the teams weve played with for so long. Its like moving out of state and only getting to play with your old buddies every once in a while when you make it into town. Buy far its best for us to jump ship but im a tradition kinda guy so its hard to let that go.

What tradition does the Big 12 really have?

Since TO has said that there has not been any contact between NU and the Big Ten I'm curious on how there is going to be an anouncemnet this week.

 

 

If I had to take a guess I would say that this discussion will be going on until Fall camp starts. And we wont hear anything from the Big Ten until after we win the Big 12 CCG this year.

 

T.O. is not guy that would jerk us the fans around on something like this. So when he says the Big Ten hasnt contacted the university, but if did he have to look into it, then i tend to believe it. It will atleast be the middle of football season before we hear anything,IMHO.

 

Other posters, who say they have a source, it better be something good. Until I see something on ESPN.com or any other legit website, Im not believing it.

that's what i was looking for. you only know what you can prove.

Exactly!
