I think that would work in A&M's favor because for some reason TU wants nothing to do with the SEC whatsoever.

With A&M, TU, OU, OSU, and TT, I think the Big XII(10) can still field some good teams on par with the other conferences but I do wish Nebraska stuck around but money rules all.
Sorry that The University of Texas has so many followers and top ranked sports programs that we can have a 24/7 Longhorn Nation channel! You said it....."Money rules" and most don't want to put up the money to watch aTm, or Neb. See, OU & Texas bring money to the table...they make money for their schools...BIG MONEY, winning programs = Mo Money.

OU & UT are in the drivers seat of Big XII football, and all others are just speed bumps along the way. I suggest until aTm wins conference, can stay in the top ten year after year, and play for a NC.........just keep on
