The Big 12 expansion groundswell

[Mormon Red Death]

So what do people think the schedule will be for football for 2024? https://kslsports.com/506206/big-12-...rgets-release/

I'm thinking they probably do Pods
West pod
Utah
BYU
AZ
ASU

Plain Pod
Colorado
Kansas
K State
Iowa St

Texas Pod
Ok St
Texas Tech
Baylor
TCU

The Rest Pod
Houston
Cincy
West Va
UCF

Basically you would play the 3 in your pod then 2 from every other pod

Basketball will be complete 20 game round robin with Rivals always playing twice (Utah/byu, az/asu, col/iowa st, KU/kstate, Okt St/Ttech, Baylor/tcu, houston/ucf, West Va/Cincy

Several ADs have gone on record stating there will be no pods, but I could see a "scheduling philosophy" that tracks with what you have here. It makes the most sense historically and in travel miles reduction. Personally, I would like BYU to play as many Texas schools as possible.

Are you in Texas? If not, why the affinity for playing Texas schools?

Not in Texas but I think it is beneficial for recruiting, for eyeballs on games/exposure, and less travel burden on the athletes.

also, livecoug is in Texas, so that is better for him as well.

I'd really hate to see the Rocky Mountain Rumble go away. Such a great rivalry, once again ruined by realignment.

This is such blasphemy. KC is one of the three great BBQ cities in the world.

I will defer to your expertise on this, but is this still true (other than in a historical sense)?

There are three food trucks within a hour of my home that have better bbq than any place I've eaten in KC (Oklahoma Joe's, Jack Stack, and Q39).

Q 39 was really good. But the other two did not impress me much.

In the "cons" column, Texas cities are hellholes! I travelled to Waco this year--what a wasteland.

You must not have visited the Silos.

Is that where the apocalyptic cult was decimated by the deep state? Yeah, I saw that.

I never knew being back in a conference with Utah would be so fun. Thank you, Ute fans for being the most unlikable and entitled fanbase in America.

Did something happen?
