Wyoming to the Big 12?

[OregonDucks]

Thoughts?

That'd be a bigger mistake than Rutgers to the Big 10. If they're going to grab anybody out of that conference it should be Boise St.

 

[Justin Tyme]

Thoughts?

No!
The B12 isn't desperate enough for that. A few years ago, yes, they were desperate enough to take West Virginia. They found out that desperation leads to stupidity and when they woke up the next morning, there was WVU laying next to them. They got their mentally insane CCG so they don't need any other teams.

...but what the fuck do I know? College football just gets stupider and stupider each year.

Is OD smoking Viagra again?

Let's see....
- The state of Wyoming is ranked last/50th in population with only approx. 585,000 inhabitants.
- The University of Wyoming has an enrollment of only approx 12,500 students.

.... so, if that school and/or state would disappear from the face of the earth, the rest of us wouldn't even hear/know about it for probably 4 or 5 days.... and even then it would most likely be some cryptic Twitter message stating that someone had better check on Wyoming to see if it's still there.


Wyoming is where space aliens go on vacation when they don't want to be disturbed.

Let me check with ESPN to see if it's ok first.

Baylor
Iowa St
Kansas
Kansas St
Oklahoma
Oklahoma St
TCU
Texas
Texas Tech
West Virginia

Will they just play their round robin schedule (9 games) and take the top-2 teams or will it be 2 divisions of 5 with the two division champs facing each other in the CCG in addition to the round robin schedule?

 

[outofyourmind]

ESPN said they aren't going to pay for that so the answer is no to Wyoming.

Wow, I had no idea it was that small of a school. Most cc schools here in Washington more students.

 

[Deep Creek]

Errrrr NO! Shit, El Paso has more people than Wyoming!

Wyoming 586,107
El Paso 649,121

Might as well add my lowly Miners as Wyoming.

Now, if the Big 12 needs a good rodeo program....

 

[romeo212000]

I heard the mountain west is considering bringing in Oregon to replace Wyoming if they leave, but they're not sure they'll be competitive enough in football.

Not no but Hell No!

Expansion is soooo Obama administration, nobody does that these days...

 

[USCDoom]

I feel so bad for the Big 8. They tried to save some of the SWC and ended annihilating themselves.

 

[Wild Turkey]

I think it's a great idea and the should bring in North Dakota State with them. Should automatically be the top 2 defenses in the league right from the start.

 

[7Samurai13]

Can you, @OregonDucks explain what Wyoming would bring to the Big12 to make it make sense. Because it's not quality football, televisions, fans, or tradition.

Any conference with Iowa St in it can't really talk about standards

Or WVU for that matter.
