If college sports were fair, there would be a Super Conference for programs like Texas, Florida, USC, etc. and the one who sucks the peniss would just play each other and leave the rest of us alone. God, I'd love that. Seriously, what business does a school with a $150 million sports budget have playing in the same conference with a school that has a $40 million sports budget? Yeah, that's fair.

5 bowl games since 2000 but those are generally 7 8 win seasons and last year 6.
It hurts recruiting the state of TX mostly that is one of the huge downfalls. Although ISU doesn't pull only 3 stars or less from down there and FLA that is what makes up most of the quality in their recruiting classes.
All depends on what conference they actually join and who else does too.
ISU still fills out 40 k for FB and travels very well. That's all the bowl game last year and them getting the bid over MU was all about money.
