I’m surprised they didn’t take a hard look at NIU.

The power 4 and a half. Not that the ACC has room to talk.

Except for USF in their current conference, they had to fly to every conference game anyway.

Subtraction by addition? Does this make the Big 12 any stronger?

 

[Skydog]

Well at least the Big 12 gets a recent National Champion

2017 UCF Golden Knights

 

[ScionOfSouthland]

Big 12 now the Little 12

 

[CarsonNewmanJacket]

UCF gonna have a hell of a time traveling

 

[goose]

Good for them funny that my team is a bottom feeder of the acc and dissing it.

 

[BigDanT]

We would have lost against every team in the big 12 last week. Even Kansas. Thank God that’s never happened.

 

[JJacket]

Is USF ded now?

 

[GT flunkout]

This is a pretty solid lineup for the Big 12. Cincinnati is a good dancing partner for WVU with lots of recent success, Houston helps keep their Texas footprint and creates lots of in-state rivalries. BYU was always a P5 program with a national fan base. BYU will have the largest stadium and highest average attendance in this new conference.

UCF is kind of the outlier but best-case scenario for them and gets Big 12 into SEC/ACC territory.

I think they are going to do just fine and will certainly retain being P5 with this lineup. The AAC fades deep deep into the G5 now though.

 

[Olgoldandwhie]

Good for them. Okie State should run the table every year. I hope a Big 12 team gets in the playoffs every year while OU and Texas sit at home.

 

[wesleyd21]

So this will be the new PAC 12 on the field.

The ACC is so up and down it’s ridiculous.

I still think Clemson is pretty good and FSU may have something this year. The rest of us are complete dog öööö this year. Especially us.

These directional, 2nd rate city schools look like another Conference USA
