Not according to Paul Finebaum. He stated that the Big 10 was by far the best conference this year. At some point you actually have to look at how teams perform on the field. Just for comparison: BIG bottom 3 Illinois Purdue, Indiana OOC is 5 - 4 and 0 - 2 vs P5 ACC Bottom 3 Syracuse Virginia, NC State OOC is 4 - 4 and 0 -1 vs P5 SEC Bottom 3 MSU Kentucky Vandy OOC 4 - 3 and 0 - 1 vs P5 You aren't scoring points by quoting PF. Laughing

I think South Carolina will be below MSU. I also think Penn State, Maryland and Rutgers are in the running with Indiana. Illinois and Purdue are pretty bad. BC isn't exactly tearing things up in the ACC....

Laughing Anything I can use to my advantage Hero:) Isn't Paul Finebaum the Gospel in the south? At first glance I thought I hit a homerun with that one. When you got a week between games you got to find something to get the conversation going. Anyway all of the conference stuff means next to nothing. Probably the only thing that I would say about conferences is that the BIG 12 has really hurt themselves and when comparing teams with the same number of losses, they will have a hard time getting the nod.

PF is a Bozo. I am not much for my conference can beat up your conference discussions but I agree the BIG12 has hurt itself on a regular basis. Why Texas and Oklahoma have not cut loose is a mystery to me.

The real question is, why hasn't the Big 12 cut US loose. :-(

I think we will see Oklahoma cut loose though....once things get closer to the GOR expiring

The real question is, why hasn't the Big 12 cut US loose. :-( From an outsiders perspective, if I am Oklahoma I would be feeling out the other P5's to see what there options are. Oklahoma and Texas are the Flagships of the Big 12 but Texas has a huge revenue advantage with the Longhorn Network. All other P5's do equal profit sharing and to me it would only make sense for Oklahoma to move on if they get the chance. The BIG, P12, and SEC all seem to be potentially good fits assuming the BIG and SEC are considering 16. This would leave Texas in a tough tough spot. Keep the Longhorn Network and remain affiliated with the B12 or move on likely killing the revenues form the Longhorn Network.

There have been rumors that Texas and the texas teams want to grab Houston and BYU and go their separate way... Furthermore, the GOR doesn't look like it will be extended when it expires in 2023 I think A lot of foreboding for the Big XII....maybe this should be turned into another thread?

They have one, you know.

Oklahoma would make some sense for the SEC but the Sooners may want to act soon. I have though the SEC would look for a team in North Carolina and possibly Ohio. Texas can go anywhere at anytime. They were less than 24 hours from an announcement about the PAC12 a few years ago.

That's a big part of the bitterness we have toward them now.
