SammyTiger Just to stir the pot - if LSU was in the big 12- better bowl options? Just different bowl options We are tired of these bowls because we go to them a lot, but at the same time, thats how it works. If you are good in any Conference you go to the same bowls fairly regularly.

2 team limit to BCS is killing us

Big 12 would be a clearer path to BCS games I think

Looking at the list, I'd say a resounding "NO".

I prefer the Sugar over the Fiesta; easier travel (obviously), but also more prestigious, more historic. Now, the Champ's Game starting next year might alter that, but it's still no more than a push.
Cotton- that game has declined to less than it used to be (one of the BIG bowls). And if you look, it's slotted higher for the Big 12 than it is for the SEC. In other words, you finish top 5 to get a shot at the Cotton in the SEC, top 2 in the Big 12. So, no, there.

Yuck. With the exception of the Holiday, I can't even recall watching any (and that one only because it used to have some high scores).

Now, to the argument that LSU would be "higher" in the Big 12- you have to take into account that we'd likely be in the South (which would revive with added teams). That's where Texas, Oklahoma, Oklahoma St, and every other competitive Big 12 team is; it's even more slanted (usu) than the SEC West over the East. If we somehow fell into the North, I think you could write us into their revived championship almost every year.

San Antonio is a cool destination for a bowl game.
