re: Houston Chronicle: Texas and Oklahoma reach out to SEC about joining conference

I’m an LSU fan, so naturally I would like LSU to win the SEC as often as possible.

Pure math and probabilities would result in LSU winning the SEC less often with OU and Texas in the conference. That’s true for all SEC teams, not just LSU.

Does that mean we would never win the SEC?… Of course not, we are and always will be a major player in this conference and nationally. But adding OU and Texas would certainly add more hurdles for us and all other SEC teams that I personally don’t want.

I’m all for having an annual “power” non-conference game against Texas or OU or Michigan or a comparable marquee program, but I definitely don’t want any of those programs in our league benefitting from the exposure and stature that the SEC currently enjoys.
