There's NO WAY the Pac 10 allows Texas to be the bullies they were in the Big XII.

I'll believe that when I see it. I think Texas believes they'll call the shots wherever they go; otherwise they wouldn't be going.

I think it's a dark day for the Pac-Whatever if Texas brings its flunkies and invades. Just like it was a dark day for us when the ruined the Big 8.

<!-- end mod-article-title --> <!-- begin story body --> Colorado is poised to announce as early as Thursday that the school is leaving the Big 12 to join the Pac-10.

Colorado's conference move was first reported by The Sporting News.

Colorado's impending move might spell the end for the Big 12 conference. Nebraska is also poised to announce its move from the conference to the Big Ten.

A Big 12 football coach, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, told ESPN.com's Mark Schlabach on Wednesday night that if Nebraska left the Big 12 the conference would dissolve, according to his athletics director and university president. The coach said Texas, Texas A&M, Texas Tech, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State and Colorado would join the Pac-10, leaving Baylor, Kansas, Kansas State, Missouri and Iowa State behind.

"Nebraska is the key," the coach said.

The coach said the Pac-10 favored Colorado over Baylor because of the Buffaloes' presence in the Denver TV market.

Another Big 12 coach said Wednesday night that an anticipated Nebraska announcement of moving toward the Big Ten Thursday would indeed trigger the death of the Big 12 and a mass migration west.

"If Nebraska leaves," the coach said, "everyone has to look."

The new conference would be split into divisions with Texas, Texas A&M, Texas Tech, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State and Colorado forming an Eastern Division with Arizona and Arizona State opposite the former Pac-8 (USC, UCLA, Stanford, California, Oregon, Oregon State, Washington and Washington State) in the Western Division.

The coach said it's possible the Pac-16 would push for two automatic bids to the BCS, one for each division champion. That potential bonanza could open the possibility of the two division champs from one league playing for the national title, and it would eliminate the need for a conference championship game.

"The Pac-10 doesn't believe in a championship game," the coach said. "And coaches in the Big 12 don't like it anyway."

They owned the Big XII because they owned the majority the TV markets and had better resources than rest of the schools, I don't see them having those advantages over the Pac 10, or more specifically the California schools. Although USC is going to be hurting for a few years, but they won't stay down.

But you're right about their arrogance, and that's why I still don't believe it's going to happen. I honestly think they'd rather try to make a go with the Big XII minus CU, NU, and MU so they can continue to be the big fish.

Nobody even comes close to Texas in P10 in terms of money. Texas is going to be the dominant school no matter where they go. You're kidding yourself if you think otherwise.

Well if that's the case, and the Pac 10 isn't smart enough to learn from the Big 8's mistake, then I'm not going to feel sorry for them at all.
