Not really. It's 5 hours from Lawrence to St. Louis & they don't have a football following.Woody1968;1718002; said:I would guess that Kansas would have provided us with a significant share in those markets as well, plus a better basketball program.
The ?Texas problem? is never going away. Not for the Big 12, not for Beebe - who will try to jump ship at the first sign of shore - and, perhaps worst of all, not for Texas, whose appetite is insatiable and antithetical, frankly, to good sense. The Horns? reaction to the mere prospect of realignment was both childish and hypocritical, an impulse of jealousy and base greed. Think Jett Rink. Or Hud.
So Nebraska needs to walk away. No regrets.
And in a decade, you?ll see why. NU will be in a coffee shop talking research with its new friends. The Big 12 will be in another barroom brawl. Texas will be standing on a table, looking to dive into the scrum, a broken bottle in one hoof, a money clip in another.

Bo should not be complaining about the officials, he should instead be out on a football field with his place kicker making the kid run gassers until next September for kicking off out of bounds. Colt McCoy is good enough on his own. You don't need to spot him an extra 20 to 25 yards.

Its seems like most folks on this thread have no problem with the Big 10 playing cutthroat in terms of forcing the hands of teams (ND, Texas, etc) to join the conference in order to increase the $, power and prestige of the Big 10. So why get pissy when Texas does the same in their own self-interest??
I wanted Texas as much as anyone but I am not going to gripe about their actions in their own self-interest.

It's 2 hr 10 min from Columbia to both of those markets.
