Wow. Only the internet can provide an up-to-the minute two-week history that just occurred.

And I still say the haves and the have-nots will end up splitting itself into two.

Yeah, the Big-12 minus two won't live beyond the term of the current BCS and ABC agreements. Missouri will bolt at the first opportunity, and A&M will follow soon after. After that, it's gonna be a free-for-all.

The only certainty is that Texas and OU will play every year in Dallas, forever.

Agreed. Teams will be looking to leave as soon as the Contracts expire if not earlier.

JMO But I believe everyone would have been better served if A&M bolted to the SEC, with Texas leading the procession to the PAC 16.
