So instead of having in-state games against Baylor, Texas and Texas Tech every other year and seven-eight home games every year, the Aggies are now looking at seven-eight home games with closest trips every other year being to Arkansas, LSU and Ole Miss. What's the difference for in-state kids?

Well, Waco is a close trip, as is Austin. Those are gone. Texas Tech is a haul and similar to the trip to Fayetteville.

Really, what it comes down to is one less game within 2-3 hour driving distance every year. Not as big a loss as you're hypothesizing.

Necessary evils if nobody better is asking.

Fortunately, somebody evidently is.

Is that Tommy's Rent-a-Flight airlines? Do you get to crop dust en route?

By "several" are you referring to the one conference game per year played in Texas that North teams averaged?

Yes. I support Mizzou, so I hate America. Stewie taught me that.

Aturnis has assured me that you support Al Qaeda if you think Jonathan Baldwin runs bad routes.

I guess I said that to him or something. I haven't quite figured it out yet.

Kind of like the Big 10 accepting Nebraska.

"We are an academic conference! Football is secondary!"

"Yes! We are academeea!"

"Whew! I thought for a minute you lost AAU certification."

"Oh. What?"

"AAU?"

"Oh, that! Were smart hear in Nebraska!"

"Yeah."

I don't recall seeing a Colorado score until this last weekend. ROFL

The next six years should be great for the Big XII, but after that?
Do you think it would be to a conference, or as an independent?

Granted, you will get a different experience depending on which American Eagle route you take, as I believe they are independent carriers that are contracted out by American Airlines.

Of course, the ones that fly to and from Manhattan, KS are among the best in the world.
