Very true. And itās an end game that I donāt want to see happen.
But let me ask you this, and this is not meant as an insult to the home team of this community here, why did the SECSECSEC need Texas and OU?
It was asked above why does the SECSECSEC need Texas Tech
Same can be said of the Sooners and Horns - while itās great for both schools, theSECSECSEC doesnāt need either of them.
The SECSECSEC is already dominating CFB and the playoffs. They are already printing money faster than they can spend. Their media presence is already huge - even in Texas. Their teams already get the pick of the litter in recruiting.
But there is one answer to all of it.
E.S.P.N.
They want to control, it is argued they already do, but they want to run CFB free and clear of anything the NCAA has to say about it.
But they donāt want the hassle of babysitting 120 schools.
Nope, they want a league made up of the elite few - basically the blue bloods and a few others.
So, start with the biggest conference first as your foundation. and then start picking off teams bit by bit.
They probably would have been cool to stand at 16 for awhile why GORd expire but the rumblings coming from the BIG/PAC this week that they arenāt ready for change means they need to give the elites in those conferences a little nudge and they do that by moving on without them vis-a-vie further expansion now.
And right now, the two biggest P5 free agents on the board are Tech and oSu.
(I say free agents because we all know the B12 as a P5 is dead)
