Oh boy, I can't believe someone actually brought up that flushed turd of an argument after all these years. If it makes you feel better as a Texas fan then what the hell keep using it.

Everybody but Nebraska says the same thing. Texas got under your skin and you couldn't beat them. Osborne saw his chance to bolt and he took it. He lobbied hard to make the move and the rest is history. I still go to an occasional Huskers watch party and the atmosphere is not the same. I know a lot of Nebraska fans who regret the move for football reasons. You can rave about being part of THE BIG BOYS CONFERENCE but the football program is a toilet with a failing coach that can't recruit the same way you did for many years. It's been like watching a former beautiful movie star get old, wrinkled and fat. About all we recognize is the voice. Now watch your athletic department morph into Maryland over the next 20 years.

tl;dr - But I am sure it would make sense in more than just your mind if Colorado, Missouri, and A&M didn't leave the conference and Oklahoma didn't get rejected in their attempt to enter other conferences.

I just noticed on winsipedia that Iowa is now claiming 5 national titles. I know ya'll have been taking a lot of racism hits lately from players speaking out about you're bullshit, but fake claims... really?

I used the waybackmachine - check out these before and after pics... talk about the biggest loser.

That is an incredible turn around. I tried doing the same with wikipedia, seeing if that changed and is what caused the change, but for some reason I couldn't access wikipedia on the waybackmachine.

Funny stuff. Nine of meeeechegan's eleven NCs happened while Babe Ruth was still playing.

Ohh dang.

Minnesota has literally finished season ranked 3 times since 1967. Literally 3 times and that was the coaches poll in 1967. All of their NCs save one happened before 1942. Yet Freddie still sprouts off like Minny is a gump dynasty or something.

Freddie's a funny fella. No doubt his custom homer goggles are on way too tight.

Tight enough to cut off the blood flow to his brain.

No doubt about that. And where has that overly homeristic fella been, was he put in SportsHoopla timeout due to his dumbfuckery?

There you have it. Iowa is at the pinnacle of the 11th highest peak in CFB. Right there with you Bugeaters. I wonder who'll reach Natty number 6 first?
