The last few comments in this thread describe perfectly why Nebraska, Colorado, Texas A&M and Mizzou all left the Big 12. There is ZERO conference pride in the Big 12, their own teams **** each other over and their conference commish fails to go to bat for them when necessary. The Big 12 is everything the Big 8 was not. The conference was ruined by the inclusion of the Texas schools. It ruined the Big 12 and made it what it is today.

That's why so many fans of Big 12 teams don't take any pride in their conference and don't understand why SEC fans do. It's called loyalty. Something the Big 8 once had, but has long since gone . . . . .

I wanted Oklahoma to win. Don't some dipshits in a meaningless pissing match sway your opinion. Texas is the only team guys root against, but honestly I wanted Texas to get Saban to shut the SEC crowd up a little.

Sorry if I lumped you in with many others that have posted in here, but my point still stands.

Texas ruined the Big 8/12 and its why many Big 12 fans today don't understand conference pride/loyalty and look at SEC fans like they're crazy when they celebrate that very thing.

It's really a shame, but it is what it is.

I've been awake for 2 1/2 hours this morning and have yet to see anyone wearing an "SEC" shirt or have to listen to some idiot scream "SEC SEC SEC" in my face.

It's been glorious.

So you rooted KU when the Big 8 was around? If not, what you just wrote is complete nonsense.

When will that dumbass Saul slink back in here and show his face again? Should be great theater!

So, because OU upset Alabama, that makes someone who predicted otherwise a dumbass?
Is that today's thesis?

It looks like you sat out the past six months of this discussion on OU sully. Why don't you continue that trend a while more.

Good win for OU. They finally beat a good team.

For a bunch of fans who don't care, some of you are sure beating your chests.

Uh oh... I'm pretty sure Sagarin had Alabama winning this game. In fact, I'm sure every computer did.

My Atari certainly did NOT.

I am sure Prison Bitch's computer will magically re-calibrate its formula to say that OU was the better team all along.

Good on OU for showing up. So now we know that there's one quality football team in the Big 12.

We are mocking you, Saul. If that wasn't being clearly communicated by now, let me reiterate it.

Cool. Still waiting for the SEC to show us one.
