RT @kbohls: Top Big 12 school administrator tells me “30% chance of Big 12 surviving” w/out Neb, but I can’t see it.

About the only way I could see that 30 percent coming off is if Nebraska and Colorado go their respective ways and the Big 12 moves OU and Oklahoma State to the North. The South snaffles up a couple eager schools that are within reach (TCU, SMU, Houston, Sam State (!), Tulane, New Mexico, etc.) and hopes the Texas and Oklahoma alumni don’t mind having their schools play two out of every four years.
Actually, you’re right — 30 percent sounds awfully generous.

Why couldn’t they do what the SEC does, and give each divisional team one interdivision “rival” that they always play, every year? (Because there aren’t enough natural interdivision rivals, outside of UT & OU, so you’d just have to invent them? OMG IT’S THE ANNUAL BAYLOR-IOWA STATE GAME!!! lol)
