So Okie has to suck it up and keep letting Texas run their shite?


Can we just give A&M back and pretend none of this dumb shite even happened?


Or OU comes to the SEC, hat-in-hand...

It could happen and may be the only way they can escape Texas. Would the SEC take Okie State though?

Yes, will act like we would at wal-mart. Simply tell the big 12 a&m is shite, and we want to return them.

Best part of all this...

Realignment has come down to A&M/Pitt/Cuse. 5 combined AP top 25 finishes since 2000. Big time movers and shakers here.

fricking ego-maniac, I cant wait to see how Dr D spins this into a Texas-centric response. Even when it's not about you, it's gotta be about you
pathetic


the comment in the press release about "culture of equality" maybe? draw some lines there buddy. it isnt that hard.

With Pac-12 not expanding, this likely means that the Big 12 will stay together with the exception of Texas A&M, which will move to the SEC. Missouri would stay in the Big 12 and the SEC would invite WVU as #14.

Would be slightly humorous if the SEC was like thanks but no thanks to A&M. I think texags would implode.

I still hope this happens, though I don't know if they can.

Maybe A&M could maybe take legal action on the SEC if we did this?

Maybe. But I'm guessing how this shite plays out this Saturday could be the litmus test. I hope everything goes as well as you think it will. Concerning the fans and stuff. How well will most folks take an on the field beat down?

I think we're going to play with a lot of heart! Anything can happen in college football on any given night when the hills of West Virginia resound with the sounds of Gold and Blue football!

*Big 12 awkwardly comes together* "Hey what's up guys?! I swear I've been happy this whole time!"

My guess...
1) Pac-12 got OU and OSU on board
2) Everybody tried to convince Texas to come, but they didn't like the whole revenue sharing thing.
3) Pac-12 reached out to Mizzou (and possibly Kansas) who chose the SEC, causing the Pac-12 to not have anymore good pairs that would be a good fit within the conference.
4) Pac-12 tells OU and OSU thanks, but no thanks.

here we go this is what happens

sec adds aTm, Mizz, OU, OK ST.

big 12 is texas, TT, Baylor, kansas, KSU, ISU, Houston, Louisville, Cinn, WVU, USF, TCU,if they go to 16 teams add new mexico, new mexico state, UTEP, SMU

acc adds rutgers and Uconn

Pac-12 eventually adds Boise state, Fresno state, Nevada, BYU

B1G eventually adds no-one

ND, Navy, Army stay independents.

Big east is reduced to a basketball only conference.

I'd be surprised if they could since their admission to the SEC is technically still pending due to the lawsuits from Baylor and co. Just because there is a deal on the table, it doesn't mean the SEC can't withdraw it before A&M is allowed to get to the table.

You think TexAgs would implode? The site would burn to the ground. Billboards would go up throughout SEC land.
