How are the Husker boards? This has to sting.

This is nice. The problem is that they're using old, used footballs (at least in the OP's eyes):

Did they just say that NC State might be the Cyclones of the ACC if they beat Florida State?
Not sure if I heard correctly or not. I'm really only watching for Buckeye touchdowns.

Yes it was irrational spite that did that. I'm actually pretty excited about TCU and WVU, but it really should be WVU in the SEC as #14, it just was a better fit. A&M was going no matter what, Mizzou got duped into it and the SEC just saw them as more $$$ than WVU.
At least adding better football teams gives the impression that the Big 12 is improving and expanding.

Not sure how to take this.
Yes, it is a mistake due to loss of rivalries and additional travel to away games.
Otherwise, aren't you just slamming the Big XII? What are you suggesting would be Missouri's fate if they were still in the Big XII this year?

Agreed with this.

Right. It's problematic.
Watching Nebraska struggle in a conference that the whole nation admits is down is much better. That one, we can look down on very easily.
But with Missouri, it's going to be difficult to claim the Big 12 is the best conference if we keep arguing that the SEC is the toughest. They would have struggled here, too, I think.

I'll just say it this way: I hate Nebraska football.

Just Nebraska football? I hate everything about that state with the exception to Omaha.

Missery, the way they're playing, would be near the bottom of the conference. Franklin is bombing this season. He hurt bad in this game? 14-40 is a terrible passing line.

Generally agree. I don't get the OP's point with the title thread and then beginning with Missouri should have never have joined the SEC? It implies he thinks they'd be so much better off W/L's if they'd stayed?

The Kansas game is about the only sure thing they'd get this year in the Big XII. What do they have to look forward to this year? Kentucky? Do they play Ole' Miss? Maybe aTm? I think top to bottom Big XII is tough, too.
