Since both stayed, and A&M didnt jump to the SEC, thats hard to prove. Texas wasnt going anywhere, regardless what conference they go to, they would have all the clout. This is all about money. Texas has it, and they generate it at rates only one other school could even imagine it. Which by the way, if ND ever goes to the Big 10, guarantee they are your new Texas. ND only goes to the big 10 if they get a Texas deal. For now, you have to deal with the money and power that tOSU and Michigan bring to the table.
I hate seeing NU leave. I am a kid of the Big 8. But the grass isnt greener on the other side. The schools left in the BXII-II will benefit from NU and CU leaving in the short term. NU isnt a Texas/OU/A&M when it comes to CFB revenues. It just means there is one less school to split revenue with. With CU leaving, 2 less schools.
