Big Xii would be stupid to quit now. Might as well hang with the Big Boys as long as they can!

Even with no postseason?
Even with no postseason!

FWIW, Bowl Games are not beholden to the 50% rule. No reason, some of the bigger Bowls couldn't put together an exhibition.

Regardless of Bowls, CFP, etc., the Big Xii holds some pretty strong cards right now - especially if they really want to entice a team or two to expand.

Strike while that iron is hot!

I wouldn't count on these coaches that say they'll play anyway. They have bosses and none of them are in position to override the school administrators.

But school administrators, at least in the ACC are Listening to professionals in virology and infectious diseases who say that the season can easily proceed and there is no need to cancel anything at this date.

Ou sent the players home for a week before school starts because they don’t want to use up all their practices. Nothing more than that.

OU will gladly play Nebraska and if we can make sure that Baker is free we would gladly plan to plant a flag in Columbus again too.

Didn't the NCAA say that in order to have postseason play, at least 50% of the teams need to be playing? If the PAC/B1G go, it might nuke the bowls/CFP for everyone.
Don't really care. Want to beat the brakes off of UF, Auburn, UTjr, Bama. Winning the SECC means something to SEC teams. If we can also get a NCG, all the better. With our luck, we win it all and then everyone says "there is an asterisk by it, 1980." I would love a 10 games season, SECCG. If that's all we get, I'm good. If we can a playoff with the 3 conferences, NCAA approval or not, I'm for that. I just want some CFB, so long as the medical people say it's good to go.

OU will plsy anyone, any place and any time. I don’t necessarily agree with that but that is how it is.
