I'd be up for a home and home with Baylor. But whatever. They're just one team.

We already do a H&H with TCU every year. I'd rather play national opponents like we've done with Michigan, Gonzaga, USC, etc. It's not like football where we need help filling seats

An agreement requires two parties that will say yes

Spot on Callallen. Baylor won't play us in basketball now for just about the same reason Arkansas won't play Arkansas State in football. They view it as a no win situation for them. If they win they are suppose to because they usually recruit more highly regarded players but if they lose it could mean loss of credibility in recruiting especially in Texas and when they are recruiting them same player(s) that SMU might be recruiting. Probably the same reason UT, OU.OSU will not play SMU now that SMU is good.

Good point.

Wow, you are saying we are Baylor's Ark. St.??

Any Big 12 team except Texas will play in Moody.

This is false.

If (and that's a huge if) we got a series against Kansas, our "home" game would be at the AAC.

I'd hope we'd make them play their "home" game at the Sprint Center in KC if that's the case

B12 teams we can get at Moody: TCU, Tech, maybe K-State, maybe Iowa State. I remember we played OSU during the Doh era at AAC

TCU and Tech are the only Big 12 school's that will come to Moody with the current state of our program. As ECM mentioned, Okie St did several years ago but I seriously doubt they will now. The only way we'll get the other schools to visit Dallas is if we play them at the AAC in a two or three game set like a few years ago with us and TCU, OU and someone else.

Iowa State probably would but they are barely Big 12-2 anyway.

WVU might as well. Maybe.

Was that OSU game with Doh or Tubbs? I was thinking that was before Doh.

Big difference-nobody wants to come play SMU at Moody when we were 16-0. I doubt we could get many top Big 12 programs to play us home/home now
