[quote]Where? I'm pretty sure you are reading troll posts where the point isn't to point out a teams success for winning them, but rather to point out the lack of success for a certain team who doesn't have them.[/quote] The SEC created the concept of divisions leading to a conference title game....

And yet there are many posts about who won a division title—especially in Football. The SEC championship game is one of the best games in the nation every year. ...

[quote]No, you claimed Mizzou had been thriving since coming into the SEC[/quote] I stated that [quote]I had a hunch Missouri would flat in the SEC, but they have thrived. They already have as many SEC division titles as they do in the Big 12. [/quote] The first thing I learned on this bo...

[quote]But hey, I guess if that is what you call thriving, then I guess yes, Oklahoma may "thrive".[/quote] I have repeatedly stated OU will be fine on this board. I will expand, OU is going to win some more Natties, Stop projecting what you think I meant to say....

By all means, Bama is the top dog in CF, but OU is clearly not a bottom dweller, but to suggest otherwise because of a hunch? I had a hunch Missouri would flat in the SEC but they have actually thrived. They already have as many SEC division titles as they do in the Big 12. [quote]So you thi...

In the direction college football is headed, OU or any SEC team will not have to be a top 4 to make a 12-team playoff. The SEC has dominated college football this century, and the expansion of adding Texas and OU only enhances the strength of the conference. There isn't any reasonable College f...
In other news, The Grambling Volleyball coach cut the entire team and plans on using the portal to import an entirely new roster. That is one way of reducing the athletic budget and lowering expectations. ...

Sorry my cat walked across my keyboard and managed to ruin my first post. As a Nam vet, I certainly stand but then again, American Vets fight for people to have the right to choose how they live their life. Often it has little to do with the rights of the homeland. Having said that, if I see an idio...
From what I recall, every team I have played on wanted to win every game. But it isn't about your post as much as even ESPN is spreading the same line. Which is another reason to question it....
[quote]Games are removed from records because of ineligible players playing in said game. Please layout how this proves ineligible players played in 2019?[/quote] I cannot think of any previous example to question this post. It is a good point until somebody can show something from history to sho...
What does the Aggie Proverb mean? Should or can be translated as an awareness that their tradition in football is on par with many of the group of five teams. I admit It is difficult to explain. ...
[quote]Chickasaw Nation is loaded.[/quote] The Native tribes in Oklahoma are in great shape other than suddenly having to expand their Police Departments, crime labs, and etc. I spent a summer on the Navajo reservation 3 or 4 decades ago. Interesting as hell but depressing. But if you like ancient ...
Texas on the other hand has the state funds to offset the difference but I wonder how many times I will lose power in the next 12 months.[link=(https://www.texastribune.org/2021/11/29/texas-power-grid-winter-storm/)]LINK[/link]...
[quote]Is it? I thought it was about tu blaming OU for being poor.[/quote] oh that too but it is based on the fact OU is debating if it is worth more than 80 million for one less year in the Big 12? I wasn't sure of your position but decided, either way, I had something to add to it. I was taug...
[quote]You want some of the poorest people in the country to bail out your athletic program?[/quote] Id be more than happy to trade 15 million for 80 million dollars. That is what this thread is really about, So any takers?...
[quote]Espin might help pay to get rid of LN faster. The original deal was 20-year $300 million contract for Longhorn Network but reports are it loses much money per year. So cutting it short gets ESpin out of the balance. Knowing they’ll make more once both teams join its a no brainer to help pay m...
I know it must be disturbing to have to admit a bunch of rejects won the BIG 12 conference in football 14 times versus once for a and m. Having said that, why let personal opinions affect a business decision approved by your own school. [quote]A&M will allow it (no choice) but good luck getting ...
It doesn't mean they cannot afford to move, it means a budget plan has not been approved. Every School, Corporate world, and our own country have budget plans. OU is on the Forbes list of most valuable College football teams. They have been on lists like this for most of my life. Back in my time,...
