Message: [QUOTE="dayooper, post: 1473193, member: 3859"] It very well may. Then again, things are changing so quickly in the sports world that teams may feel they have to move to keep relevant and bring in enough revenue. The Big12 has a huge problem in that their exposure is so regional. Most play a very regional schedule against lower level opponents. Baylor's non-conference schedule is a joke. If Texas and Oklahoma can get back to the national prominence they had a decade ago, it may give them the exposure they need to take their universities where they want them to go. The big problem is that's a very difficult thing to keep going. It's much easier playing a schedule that sends you to the places where you want exposure. Isn't that what ND was/is doing with your Big East and ACC scheduling agreements? While Texas and Oklahoma are scheduling nationally in their non conference schedule, it's only one or two games a year. Games against teams like Michigan and OSU (whom they are playing on future schedules) will bring a national audience, what about the other nine or ten weeks? I have thought for a while that the Big12's days are numbered. I have no clue where the teams will go, but I'm not sure they will, in their current level, last until the GoR expires. [/QUOTE]
