Not really serious.

But then again, they would pay a king's ransom to get a school with LSU's brand name over a Cincinnati or BYU. And in the "playoff era," the Big 12 might be the easiest route. Ask Oklahoma.

Depending on HOW bad it got, and what the actual options are...leverage isn't terrible.

It would be received as an empty threat.



for what it is worth, i'd cancel my season tickets if LSU joined the Big 12

I have no interest in watching LSU play Iowa state, Okie lite, tech, baylor and TCU anytime in the near future.

I think LSU should hire a better PR team and AD

we should at least flirt with the 12, 10, and ACC. let the SEC picture a world without us, without a founding member. NO ONE could replace us.

Joining the Big 12 would give the Tigers a great opportunity to win consistent conference championships.

For the first time in my life, this weeks shiteshow from the SEC powers that be actually has me considering the legitimacy of this idea.




Ok. Back to reality. Would be a colossal mistake on the part of LSU.

The biggest weaknesses are obvious.

1. We trade a conference that is Alabama's bitch to a conference that is Texas's bitch.

2. The traditionalists would throw a shitfit if we lose Alabama/Ole Miss/Auburn/etc. home games.

HOWEVER, if we flirted with a hard-up conference and told them "WE ONLY PLAY AT NIGHT AND WE HAVE A DEAL," could that be worked out (within reason)? And would you be okay with that?
