Man, no love for my Huskies?
we were a bowl team last year with a team that couldn't complete a forward pass.
They won't even win much, but they can at least be a competent B12 program.

Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby said the analytics firm the league recently hired, Navigate Research, revealed that a 12-team league with an eight-game conference schedule and a championship game was the best model for putting a team in the CFP.
No. It hasn't been important since conference expansion began nor have other significant items IMHO...i.e..I can't recall Mizzou winning any of the minor sports when they were in the Big12. (A&M has been damn good in some of them over the years) The ONLY thing that has been important in conference expansion is how much viewership revenue you can bring to the receiving conference...period.Is being competitive in other sports important?
My recommendation is to report the actual increase and the variance of the results. Except then the data will be exposed as not supporting his hoped-for conclusion.Bowlsby, who said the computer modeling showed the 12-member, eight-game schedule would slightly increase the league’s likelihood of getting teams into the Playoff, believes the data “will probably persuade some people one way or another.” But he said he wasn’t sure what his recommendation would be.
