I don’t blame them and I would be too, if I were them, which … eek. They finally achieved what they thought was parity with SMU.

Oops.

It was interesting that at the official announcement, head coach Rhett Lashlee seemed to make a point to say something like "SMU is the only Div. I program in Dallas, the only program in the Metroplex in a top-three conference."
Didn't seem like it was said by accident.

TCU and Baylor are envious as they wonΓÇÖt get to play the big boys, including Notre Dame, like we will.

but, but, but Fort Worth is in the "Dallas area" isn't it?

TCU and Baylor should have a lot more to discuss on their message boards after yesterday.

Tech, tcu and baylor truly proved to us the superiority of big # conference football by losing to massive underdogs the opening game of the season! As their posters have been saying, we don't belong in a conference with them. At least they got that right.

It's funny because it will get under the skin of the Big 12 teams. Also, basically true, since unlike the ACC, SEC, and B10 of 2024, the Big 12 will have had 0 football championships in the last decade or even the BCS/CFP era, and only 3 championships since the inception of college football (TCU - 1938; BYU - 1984; Colorado - 1990) compared to dozens for each of the ACC, SEC, and B10.

I have a friend who went to Baylor who said he goes to some board that has people calling for Aranda to get canned after one game, too.
