    Maybe the Big 12 can do West/East divisions...

    West: BYU, Texas, Tech, OU, OSU, TCU
    East: WVU, ISU, Baylor, KU, KState, UConn/Cincy/UH/???

    The Gibbon is correct: OU and UT will be in different divisions but will play every year in the RRS.
    West: BYU, TCU, Baylor, Tech, Texas, Houston
    Rest: OU, OSU, KU, KSU, ISU, WVU
    Annual cross division games: Texas/OU; BYU/KU; Houston/WVU; Tech/OSU; Baylor/ISU; TCU/KSU
    Other two conference games will rotate home-and-home

      Yeah, I guess I could live with that... The longest drive would be to Lubbock: 4 and a half hours down I-20. Do you have good sound system in your car?

        Hung up? I'm just excited for the new Provo/Jordan River Rivalry and the new stadium to be built.

              Certainly could, but I don't think it will. I have to believe that this is a push by ESPN and Fox to get the Big 12 to stop at 12 teams rather than 14. Additionally, ESPN and Fox already agreed to the terms, so I am not really sure how they can stop expansion should the Big 12 actually want to expand.

                Nope. I think it's more logical that they at least add 2 teams but going all the way to 14 is likely out of he question now

We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                    "Guitar groups are on their way out, Mr Epstein."

                    Upon rejecting the Beatles, Dick Rowe told Brian Epstein of the January 1, 1962 audition for Decca, which signed Brian Poole and the Tremeloes instead.

                      Fox and ESPN are just starting the negotiation process for expansion. The next move is OU and UT will threaten to join the SEC, B1G, or PAC-X. Then Fox and ESPN will give in and pony up the money for the expansion.

                        Big 12 wants to create Big12network
                        Networks say we are tapped out until 2024. Big12 decides not to expand
                        ACC gets a huge deal for ACC Netwok
                        BIG12 - you want to play that game. screw them we are going to get our money by expanding per contract.

                          I like that you didn't capitalize "ute".

                              I was mocking ute fans on social media. Not questioning your loyalty.

                                Texas is not going to give Oklahoma a division it can win every year, especially when Texas would be 3-4 in that division right now.
