@CBKReport It is rather astonishing that the North East has never really claimed a CMBB team of their own. They just waffle back and forth between Villanova, Uconn & ... dook? dook is in a slaver state & institution; they pour their love onto them. It's weird.
@CBKReport Kansas, Kentucky, and North Carolina have received no such mercy in down years.
It'll be interesting to see the transient east coast fans walk back & for the between UConn & dook for a while.
@lastsaskliner@TheSeaMouse@Noahpinion "the government demands 'you people' become national forest rangers for free."
"Isn't this what you were requesting of us?"
@JayhawkTakeover I'd appreciate the opportunity to discuss this topic with you via dm. My stance is that government provided insurance while inherent market failures exist is a good thing.
If I could rebuild the Big 12โฆ this would be it. A true regional powerhouse conference built for week-to-week action and season-long rivalries:
Colorado
Iowa State
Kansas
Missouri
Nebraska
Oklahoma
Oklahoma State
Wichita State
If I could rebuild the Big 12โฆ this would be it. A true regional powerhouse conference built for week-to-week action and season-long rivalries:
Baylor
Houston
Kansas
Kansas State
Missouri
Nebraska
Oklahoma
Oklahoma State
Texas
Texas A&M
Texas Tech
TCU
In-state bloodbaths every year:
Texas vs Texas A&M
Oklahoma vs Oklahoma State
Kansas vs Kansas State
Baylor vs TCU vs Houston vs Texas Tech
Interstate wars that matter:
Nebraska vs Missouri
Oklahoma vs Texas
Kansas schools vs Missouri & Nebraska
The entire state of Texas throwing hands every fall
No more coast-to-coast travel. No more diluted rivalries.
Just pure Midwest + Plains + Texas football, where every week feels like a rivalry game and every season ends with massive stakes. Regional football done right.
This Big 12 would hit different. This same concept could be easily applied to the other power conferences in the US.
