Which Tech? I know there were some Va. Tech rumblings at some point."They're good. They've always been good" - David Shaw.
Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

Sorry. Texas Tech. The thinking was to expand their footprint in Texas with more than just A&M (that is, Texas A&M).Originally posted by DrumNFeather View PostWhich Tech? I know there were some Va. Tech rumblings at some point."If there is one thing I am, it's always right." -Ted Nugent.

Oh, please, PLEASE, let that be true . . .Originally posted by Uncle Ted View PostChip Brown on the radio just said that there has been some talk between Tech and the SEC.
And as I think about it, why wouldn't it be? The SEC needs a 14th. It can go to West Virginia, Missouri, Louisville, or pick up another Texas school. Texas doesn't appear interested. Who's to say that Tech isn't the next best choice?
Nah, this is probably me, the BYU fan, being desperate.τὸν ἥλιον ἀνατέλλοντα πλείονες ἢ δυόμενον προσκυνοῦσιν

BYU's only chance in all of this is Big 12 stability.

That BYU and not Tech would be the 16th Pac team.Originally posted by smokymountainrain View PostAlright, i'll bite. What did viking say?
Except Colorado won't have that, because it would put them in the same spot with OU, Okie State and Texas. Though a regional pod of Utah, BYU, ASU and Arizona would be fun.

I actually believe Viking was right with BYU going to the BIG 12 and an announcement, but Oklahoma threw the monkey wrench in it all. I still have a hard time with his prediction that BYU would be in the PAC instead of Texas Tech. I just don't see any love coming from the PAC... ever.Originally posted by TripletDaddy View Postthis dog hunts!

This is an interesting article regarding conference geography and the number of fans in different markets. BYU comes in at 43. I won't say what Utah came in at. I'm already bitter."To the man who only has a hammer, everything he encounters begins to look like a nail."
