He made a lot out of the existing 10 in the Big 12 not seeing any fits for expansion that were "worth it." He's woefully uninformed about the Big Ten network and has his head in the sand regarding a potential SEC network. Here's the latest from Outkick the Coverage on a potential SEC Network and its value.

No, but he's now guaranteeing there will be 10 teams in league play in 2012-13...

I think not having conference pride is stupid. It's kind of an 'Only I'm allowed to pick on them' type relationship. Maybe you'll start to realize it after some time in the SEC when you see other schools thinking they deserve a title shot yet they haven't played the type of gauntlet a SEC team goes through.

I have always rooted for conference foes to lose every single game they play in nonconference situations. In conference games, I root for whatever is in best interest of my team. And if my team has no interest, I casually hope the team I hate less wins. And I hate all conference foes. You will never hear me chant "SEC" You will never hear me talk about the "SEC gauntlet." If the schedule breaks out particularly tough (like it did for Mizzou this year in the Big 12), you might hear something, but it won't be specific to "our conference." I will root for your team (Florida) to lose every single game it plays now, in all sports (unless there's a vested interest for my team). Nothing personal, I think you're an awesome poster. Conference pride is a substitute for being proud in one's own institution, IMO. I would rather stand on my school's achievement - even with the limitations that might bring with it - than ever talk about "conference" achievement like I had any part in it.

It seems a little more old-school to me.
My grandpa roots for everyone in the B1G, he's an Illinois guy. My dad roots for everyone in the IIX (or at least he used to; no idea what he'll do now). I've always been closer to Duncan's POV - !@#$ everyone else in the conference unless it somehow makes us look better. Come bowl season, I would root for the IIX teams (except for KU, KU can always eat a dick, even if they're playing the Taliban). And if Mizzou was going to be playing a tough game, I'd prefer see that opponent be ranked to help our strength of win or loss (and hopefully not anger the opponent we were soon playing). But that had nothing to do with pride in the conference, just wanting to see Mizzou's standing elevated. We'll see if that changes in the SEC. I can say this - I already want Arkansas to lose every game it plays (it's amazing how easy that transition from KU to Arkansas is going to be; Petrino makes that one easy program to loathe) and I don't think I'll be sad to see LSU stumble here and there either.

This especially when I've met Razorback fans that are already talking **** on us. If they get DGB as well I'll have more of a reason to hate the Arkytards. I want to see him stay in Missouri.

With Petrino and Anderson, I'm pretty sure I can drum up some Arky hate pretty easily.

Don't get me wrong - there's no love lost. I despise Georgia, Tennessee, Bama, LSU, etc. However, when they're matched up against a joke school from the ACC/Big10/Pac12/etc then I want the SEC team to prevail.
