"they will want to affiliate themselves with UT, OU, OSU over the incoming CUSA schools I would guess. But long term, not sure it is in their best interests."

I think you're overlooking the TV money - over the long run, they would likely make more money on a coveted Big 12 TV contract than from the occasional BCS dollars.

Yep. I feel sorry for there fans. Seems they and everyone else cares more about money than winning games, conference championships, and national championships. WV came real close to being in the NC game a few years ago. Won't happen in the B12. Look at A&M as an example.
