Looks like BYU is making a pitch to join. They are independent now. The SEC and ACC rules for scheduling (and other conferences soon to follow) are hampering BYU's ability to schedule quality opponents.

Big 12 has an advantage by having three open dates a year vs the other conferences. No SEC or PAC 12 team would join the Big 12. Doubtful on Big 10 or ACC, let them get two out of Memphis, Cincinnati, ECU, or CO. State.

Don't everyone jump on me at once, at least count to 10 before you bring the heat. But maybe it's time we give the big 12 a call and offer to join along with byu. think about the advantages this would bring for a minute: Texas and OU will always want to play each other, so we would by default be in the opposite division from the 2 other powers. we would year in and year out be the favorite, big dog in our division. Plus, it opens the door to Texas recruiting more than we have ever imagined. Give Less enough cracks at the big 12 championship game and we'll be in the final 4 a hell of a lot more than we'll make it in the SEC. And we won't be at a scheduling disadvantage to bama anymore, but would likely be at a scheduling advantage for a change.

Count to 10, then blast away
