    Mostly because of the dumb times they schedule their games. I think the Texas at Cal game ended some time between 11:30 and midnight PDT. That is just illogical to agree play games that late.

    K State vs Ok State doesn't qualify for network TV....But K State vs Stanford did? K-State Wildcats at Oklahoma State Cowboys: kickoff, TV info | The Kansas City Star

    seems like a violation of the sacred bylaws.
  4. Jasper_Jester
    so, a gentleman's agreement....Hopefully Oklahoma is doing the same right now with OSU.

    150M people use Prime Video? that is crazy! there is nothing on that service ever!

    It seems strange to me that Amazon's revenue (which is primarily from AWS and then retail services) is lumped together with its revenue related its entertainment arm, but ESPN, which is part of the Disney, ABC, 21st Century Fox is being viewed as a stand alone entity. I highly doubt that an entertainment empire is letting a internet website, cloud storage, and mail order company with a side hustle streaming service (with third tier content) completely take over its bread and butter without a fight....But, we will see.

    I'll sing it every time, but I have to say, when I showed up on campus and we learned it my first thought was "what the fuck does all this shit mean?" We would be just fine if we let the wokes take a win on this one. We would have to work really hard to come up with a dumber replacement.
  8. Jasper_Jester
    Yeah, you are right, ESPN would never broadcast Texas A&M at Texas or Alabama at Texas or Florida at Oklahoma...Because they hate money. If it came to that, they would broadcast all the games and wish us luck in court. Just like Texas let Joe Wickline do shitty coaching even though he breached his contract with OSU.

    here are some now, already heading over

    Sure, but rivalries are good for sports, even invented ones. Since Texas is every one of the I8's biggest game each year, we have to give them replacements.

    Or the Chili Bowl - Cincinnati vs Kansas (with a cinnamon roll)
  12. Jasper_Jester
    what about the Holy Bowl, Baptists vs Mormons?

    Tell us you aren't ready to be the man of the house without telling us you aren't ready to be the man of the house. Just take our buyout and let us be free!

    I still have a beef with some of these Big 12 schools who screwed us in Coaches polls hurting our chances for better bowl games. And other than Gundy all of those coaches are long gone now. In my mind you can hold on to these petty things for as long as you like.

    I personally don't think ISU should be grateful. But they should have been prepared. Oregon State isn't sweating (right now) because there is more tradition in the Pac 12. But they should be nervous.

    Feels like you are just making grievances up now. I don't know that anyone is saying Iowa State should have scheduled Notre Dame and Alabama (Texas does, but that is neither here not there), I think people are saying everyone should have stopped scheduling FCS schools. That certainly would have helped the prestige of the conference. And, We are Texas, we like bragging, if the conference bragged, we would have gone right along. But, I'm not going to lie, this thing was broken from the jump and got worse when people bailed. But, Texas did commit to sticking it out when they could have bailed long ago. So, whatever transpired since, 10 years ago Texas was committed to making this work and it is going to cost a lot of money to get out of the commitment so this isn't happening lightly.

    What does Fox have against OU? That is the network that has the OU vs Nebraska game. The conference was supposed to leverage Fox to give up the game so ESPN could put it on in Prime Time.

    First rule of Alliance is you don't talk about the "Alliance". Second rule is you have to do whatever the Big 10 decides. Third rule is Big XII schools stop asking to join the other conferences in the "Alliance." Fourth rule is have fun in the "Alliance"
  19. Jasper_Jester
    Since I've been mean to ISU in this thread, I will continue the trend and take Iowa to win outright.

    what does it say? I feel like I am color blind, though I know I didn't use to be. Maybe this broke my eyesight?
  21. Jasper_Jester
    Maybe they should have a play in competition. Have a 64 team tourney and the final 4 get a Big XII invite. It would be one of the few times in its history the Big XII was entertaining to people not affiliated with the schools in it.
  22. Jasper_Jester
    The GOR is basically the only thing that gets an enlarged Big XII a chance for more broadcast revenue than the AAC. Bowlsby is going to come knocking for a renewal of the GOR so you can get your contract renewed. And if you don't sign, you are home wreckers like us and need to show up with $80M... Everyone else in the conference is voting yes on extending the GOR (including the new family members you are inviting to come play). Does T Boone's family have interest in buying you guys out? Where does Kansas and ISU keep their $80M stacks of cash?
  23. Jasper_Jester
    ok, but by that definition, Texas also was in the driver's seat in 2017, 2018, and 2020. So, I guess the Big XII clown car has multiple drivers.

    The recency bias is strong in this post. Congrats on washing away all the 2 and 3 win seasons. I respect your fan base, but it would take me longer than 4 good seasons to to make that claim if I was a Cyclone fan.

    Sorry if already posted, but this is how one lawyer sees this playing out in an article he wrote 8 years ago. I think the variable here is Fox. Myth of the Big 12's Grant of rights | FOX Sports
