My thoughts exactly.
Yes, but as you can see from Baylor's shenanigans, the teams are dropping road nonconference games. All those teams, including us, are going to be looking for teams to play at home. Nobody is going to want to go on the road.
At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
any other big 12 schools dropping non conf games in 2011? so all the Austin Peay's of the world are going to get screwed and lose out on $1M payouts.
Depending if the CUSA stays together - Do they schedule one more conference game like all the rest? If A&M, Baylor, etc drop us from the future games. All the BCS will probably do the same?
did the sky fall? the only reason the Big 10/12 is going to 9 conference games is because they have lost the desired 12 teams/conference championship game set up. In case you haven't noticed, it happened because the Big 10 and PAC 10 wanted what the SEC and Big XII had.

seems like it's something to worry about with all the Non-BCS schools.
remember...the PAC 10 will likely add a non-conference game to offset the loss of Big XII teams. My guess is they will want their teams to come east and play Big XII, Big 10 and SEC teams. Those games will be played before it's "lights out" on the east coast. UCLA's win over Texas trumps Boise's beating Oregon State.

The Pac-12 will stick with nine conference games. It is more profitable for schools to play another conference game than to buy an OOC game.

Iowa State just dropped Utah from next year's schedule. However that probably won't create an opening as Utah will be playing nine conference games next year as part of the Pac-12.
Karl Benson (WAC Commish) and the AD's of the 6 remaining WAC schools (Idaho, Utah St., NMSU, San Jose St, Hawai'i and La. Tech) meet today with up to 10 candidates for admission. 6 schools known to be meeting with the WAC include Denver and Seattle (non-football) plus Montana, Texas St., UTSA and Lamar.
NT's lack of interest demonstrates that they have likely already discussed eventual C-USA membership.
UNT: The premier research institution of North Texas and only university in D/FW with both medical and law schools! Leading the way for D/FW now and in the future!

You are putting the cart before the horse. North Texas may not be interested in the WAC, but it doesn't mean that a CUSA bid is in the near future.
I guess it's time to call RGT and tell him that tomfoolery is a foot...he must quickly get on the phone and impose his will onto Banowski to once again keep the Dentonites from climbing out of the Suck Belt.

Very funny. Not only do I think that you cannot blackball us, I don't think that you want to. I imagine your adminstration is now ready to have one of its rivals be a conference game. Maybe we can schedule it during rival week at the end of the season on Thanksgiving weekend! Time to build traditions!
