Hey, if the Big 12 can call themselves Big 12 while only having 10 then anything

It is the Big 12 (with 10 teams). I wouldn't expect anything else.

But they had one good season and they're in the northeast, so hey maybe they're worth a shot.

I just hope that we're one of the 4 teams that gets one of the final 2 spots.

Does Comcast own Fox or ESPN? Unless they do, they aren't a Big12 media partner
