Nexus Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Last week, the Texas Longhorns announced a partnership with ESPN that will bring the school just north of $12 million a year for the next 15 years after partnership fees are shared. That money is in addition to the substantial sums of money Texas extorted from its Big 12 brethren during last year's conference realignment shakedown. AOL Fanhouse Quote Link to comment
mmmtodd Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 id lay money on it. Its no secret that the SEC has been trying to set up rivalries a la big ten style and has failed to find LSU a true one, that both sides care about equally. LSU and Texas A&M have been rivals for years, and have great history. Quote Link to comment
GrueneHorn Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 A&M may follow the Nebraska example: "We can't compete with Texas, so we're leaving!" Quote Link to comment

irafreak Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 A&M may follow the Nebraska example: "We can't compete with Texas, so we're leaving!" Not so much "compete" but "tolerate" oh look at the time...5 till 7 Quote Link to comment
husker_hurdler Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Bill Bryne had a nice quote on College Football Live......in a related note Dan Beebe was on to discuss the ESPN/Texas TV deal....sounded like quite a joke! Quote Link to comment
