    Good Game ISU

    I agree, hell of a game. You could just feel that Jantz was going to make the big play every time it was needed.

    *****The Super, Mega, Huge Big 12 Expansion Thread*****

    Worst case scenario for A&M is that they become independent for a year while playing the SEC teams as a non-conference game, then joins the SEC in 2013. A&M will not be in the Big 12 next year. Baylor and the rest of the Big 12 should focus on keeping OU happy now.

    Sporting News: OU and A&M may look at SEC

    This is just posturing. Dan Beebe needs Texas, Oklahoma, and Texas A&M in order for the conference to remain intact. Oklahoma and A&M are always going to try to counter Texas to keep the conference balanced so that Texas doesn't become to powerful. For that reason, there will be opposition to...

    Rhoads: Don't sleep on Kansas

    The Kansas defense is awful. I watched A&M run through huge holes all night. Expect A-Rob to have a huge day on the ground. Here are the A&M offensive highlights from last week's game against Kansas: YouTube - Texas A&M Offense vs Kansas

    Leach to U of New Mexico?

    I would say that there would be a 50-50 split on Aggies that would take Leach. He's whipped our butt for a decade, but Sherman is here for the long haul. There were rumors that there were talks with Leach about being the offensive coordinator at A&M this past spring, but everyone knew that him...

    Is ISU safe? Could the Big 12 still implode?

    I would guarantee that SEC would gladly take A&M independent of OU and Texas. By just adding A&M, the SEC would gain the Dallas-Fort Worth (#5 TV market in US), Houston (#10), and San Antonio (#37) tv markets. It would be easy for them to find another school from the east to match A&M. The SEC's...

    Is ISU safe? Could the Big 12 still implode?

    False on the fact that A&M would have had to take OU or Texas. "For anyone who's not clear on the matter: A&M had a verbal offer to join the SEC, no matter if Texas chose to join the Pacific-10 or stay in the Big 12. All A&M had to do was call. The Aggies passed on the chance to play in the...

    Big 12 will have 12 teams by next season...

    The Big 12 sticking together was contingent on A&M staying, otherwise with only 9 members and with SEC and Big 10 expansion, Texas, Tech, OU, and OSU would have joined the Pac-10. I know Texas tried to play the hero for saving the conference but in reality it was more A&M, but all 3 played...

    Big 12 will have 12 teams by next season...

    A&M is one of the main reasons the Big 12 is still together. If A&M would have gone to the SEC, the Big 12 would have fallen apart and Iowa State would be in a lesser conference. "Our revenue share from the Big 12 this year is $9.2 million. In the new agreement, we will have a base of $20...

    Big 12 Reprimands Tuberville

    You lose all credibility with the bolded statements. A&M was 5th in the Big 12 for revenue sharing for 2009-2010 with 10.2 million, while Tech was 9th with 9.2 million. http://www.omaha.com/article/20100613/BIGRED/706139829#nebraska-drops-to-eighth-in-big-12-revenue Also, in Fortune 500's 2007...

    Who is/was your favorite Cyclone?

    My favorite Cyclone to watch was Seneca Wallace, but Todd Blythe still gives me nightmares from watching him destroy my Aggies on Kyle Field:eek:

    Big 12 Reprimands Tuberville

    The unequal revenue is all about who watches game, and the money is set to go to those who have the most viewers, and the fact that OU, Texas, and A&M controlled the fate of the conference and Beebe sold his soul to save his job. Here's the average attendance numbers the past 3 years along with...

    Joe Schad Reports $32 million in departure fees

    Dan Beebe and the teams that were going to be left out of a major conference sold their souls to Texas, OU, and A&M. Those 3 schools could have broken up the conference with a simple move, either Texas or OU going to the Pac10 or A&M to the SEC. If one of those would have left then the big 12...

    Big 12-2 staying together

    I hope to make it to a Cyclone game here in the next few years, I've always heard about the tailgating. I hope the Big XII does stay together, but Texas ruined the SWC, and has damaged the Big XII. I wouldn't be surprised in 5 years if they were looking to leave the conference again.
