The Day Big 12 Football Died
?

But the good ol' boys of the Big 12 couldn't come to an agreement today. Their penis envy blew the idea up and they decided to not expand. Also, the president of FOX Sports didn't like the idea because of a clause that would distribute additional revenue to members if expansion happened.
So what's left a is a group of 10. Most whom will never be given the benefit of the doubt during playoff selection. Simply put, if you aren't Texas or Oklahoma, you will struggle from this decision. No one else in the Big 12 offers the same brand. And maybe that's how the suits in Austin and Norman wanted it all along. That's just me speculating. But there is simply nothing attractive about that conference anymore. And when they had a chance to write a new script they failed. And now they may as well write an obituary for the Big 12.
