do yall think there is any way we can talk Texa$$ into putting down the revolver and picking up the rope. So we can sit back and hope they hang themselfs with it? I do agree awesome analogy though.

I want to know how the heck they think they'll pass it if 8 of the 12 teams are getting invites to other conferences. The schools involved probably have a very good idea when they will get the invite to join. Therefore if they commit I bet it'll be like yes we'll commit by July 1st knowing they will get the invite to join the other conference by June 30. ps dates are only examples please don't use them for anything other than that.

Maybe Frank the Tank was thinking that everyone in Kansas lives alone, people in Missouri live 20 - 30 people per home. As for Nebraska, he probably spent time here. With being here you quickly realize that every family has 2 - 3 tv's per home. Plus every family has at least 1 tv in their tractor/car, garage or tool shed/barn. All I know for sure is it will cause me to by a new NCAA video game and that I will have to get some new mini-helmets for my rec room. Wont work with the ones I have now if half or more of the teams are no longer in the conference. Hhhhhhmmmmm buying new NCAA video game and mini helmets. Thanks I didn't think about having to do that as well better start saving money. Come to think of it I wonder if EA Sports and the people who create the helmets are in on this just to boost sales.....interesting theory It's simple we invade and take over the NFL. Fro Daddy I wasn't trying to bash Missouri just helping you pick on Frank the Tank. So please don't get affended. Will the BIG 10+, Pac 10 make some announcements please i'm bored at work and need entertainment

Not only did we get screwed with that extra second added. But the only touchdown scored shouldn't of either. They was stopped on the 1 yard line colt then slid the ball across the goal line. It was very obvious on the replays that was shown on tv, with commentators stating it'll be called back but yet Big 12 officials called it a touchdown. I've searched for links I can't find one of a good view of it or anything showing the replay.

Well i've been getting friendly with Delaney's secretary at the local hotel. I was able to drill some info out of her. What she told me is that Delaney was inspired by a 90's cartoon called Pinky and the Brain. He has recently teamed up with Dan Beebe of the big 12 to take over the United States. Delaney is playing the roll of Brain the smart one behind the plots, while Beebe is playing pinky the bumbling idiot of the duo. Delaney has a great scheme to take over the entire ncaa by making one super duper huge conference. Only problem is Beebe can't figure out how to relocate every school to Texas.

Funny you mentioned this. There's a thread at another board where I lurk and supposedly this guy received an e-mail from a so-called "legit source" that said that ND would seriously consider joining if Nebraska and Texas joined. Furthermore, a Texas sports writer earlier this week (or late last week?) made a remark in one of his articles that he was trying to find out why certain ND officials were at UT this week and what the discussion was about? Rumors down there was it might be about expansion? Needless to say, it's all a bunch of speculation at this point. It's fun to follow the developments though. That's really interesting about the ND officials in Texas. That makes it sound some realllllly big things may happen after hearing about sports writers curious why ND officials was at UT campus. I'm half tempted to get a suit buy a hat from some bizzare team say Troy Trojans and head to Chicago with a bull horn and start screaming let us in Delaney. Best case scenario it might cause more sunbelt contriversy with big 10+ or just cure my boredom. Either way it's a win win for me

Here I'll help with the countdown. I'd love to get my hands one some tickets so I could be in the stadium to But waving the husker flag while everyone drives by my house on 14th street will be just as sweet

2 things: 1. The UT-A&M game, A&M is UTs #1 or #2 rival, and they seem to be a package deal. 2. If I read this correctly, there WON'T be a Big 10 championship game, instead each member will play one additional (13) game per year to add another week to the season, keeping the conference relevant while other conferences (Big 12, SEC, ACC) have their championship games. It seems plausible, but I have a hard time believing that the other Big 10 schools would sign off on giving a 7-0 UT/ND the auto BCS game, while an 8-0 Big 10 champion tOSU, Mich, PSU, or Neb have to hope for an at large BCS bid. Well, now that you think of it, the chances of that happening are pretty good, especially if the Rose Bowl tie-in is still in play. 7-0 UT gets the BCS champtionship game while the 8-0 tOSU gets the Rose Bowl. Really, it doesn't sound that far fetched. The problem I see with that is this. Say for example Alabama is undefeated ranked #1 Oklahoma stays in whats left of big 12 is also undefeated and ranked #2. Then wouldn't a undefeated Texas or Notre Dame undefeated ranked at highest #3 automatically go to the rose bowl which could leave a undefeated Ohio State, Michigan, Penn State, Nebraska out of the bcs game? If that happens the best they could hope for is an at large bid for a different BCS game at best. The only way it would be doable is if the 7-0 Texas/ND team would automatically go to the National Championship game leaving the Rose Bowl open for the undefeated true Big 10 Champ. Would that scenario happen every year no. But it could and probably would happen quite frequently or at least have a good potential to. If that goes through that way then the current Big 10 members more than likely would vote it down. As it would pretty much state the current and future members of Big 10 are important but not as important as Notre Dame and Texas.

If we left Big 12 for the Big 10+ it might affect recruiting somewhat. There will always be kids that want to stay close to home where family can see them play. Those kids might decide against coming here for that reason. But also there are those that don't care where they play, they just want to be on national tv for the exposure. So joining might get those who hadn't thought of coming here before looking at us now just for that increased tv exposure we will have. To the OP I forgot your question after looking at your pictures. What did you ask again? lol

I don't see the big 10+ giving into any team out there. The only reason they would want Texas is for the recruiting. I think the big 10 would be great for Nebraska because of the revenue we will supposedly get from joining. But if Texas joins i'd be just as happy with us sticking with the Big 12, since it'd be a lot better without that conference killer Texas in it.
