Apathy Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Why would anybody watch Texas play Baylor over games like Ohio State/Wisconsin vs Nebraska/Michigan State/Michigan/Iowa in the Big 10 Championship game or the SEC Championship and PAC 12 Championship games? The only game worth watching is the Oklahoma vs Oklahoma State game but Texas and Baylor.......BHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Stinky Linky The Conference will continue to have a strong presence on "Championship Saturday" with two games scheduled for December 3. Texas will travel to Baylor while Oklahoma State hosts Oklahoma in the annual Bedlam matchup. Times for each game will be announced at a later date, but will be at either 2:30 or 7:00 p.m. CT on ABC. 1 Quote Link to comment

Fuzzy Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Maybe its just me looking too far into it, but you notice how they feature only former Big 12 south teams? Truthfully a better matchup would be Missouri vs Kansas rather than Texas and Baylor. 2 Quote Link to comment

Why not watch the 2nd longest rivalry in the nation to this date than watch Baylor vs Texas. Quote Link to comment
Husker from Kansas Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 because texas owns the big XII and couldnt stand the thought of not being the featured game! Quote Link to comment

Reason why no KU-MU: Kansas Population: 2,818,747 Number of people in Kansas who care about KU or MU football: 5 Number of people who care about KU football outside of Kansas: 0 http://quickfacts.ce...ates/20000.html Missouri Population: 5,987,580 Number of people in Missouri who care about KU or MU football: 47 Number of people who care about MU football outside of Missouri: 1000 http://quickfacts.ce...ates/29000.html Texas Population: 24,782,302 Number of people in Texas who care about UT or Baylor football: Everyone Number of people who care about UT or Baylor (but much more UT) football outside of Texas:....A LOT (Number who care about UT football even when they play Baylor: MU-KU interested parties X 100,000) http://quickfacts.ce...ates/48000.html Quote Link to comment
fro daddy Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 There is talk about playing big games that weekend every year in the future, but the schedules are alittle messed up this year and next with games that were already set. Once they are able to properly set up schedules based on 10 teams it will be better. Quote Link to comment

If the B12-2 doesn't have interesting matchups that weekend, then the B12-2 is to blame. Heck, they could have just not said anything about the final weekend, but instead they're trying to compete with the biggest matchups. It just looks silly. Quote Link to comment
