I almost went with "playoff inclusion" — but what I'd really like to know is what our chances will be in being included in a conference that actually matters.

I think it's obvious they're trying to consolidate a couple dozen teams to take 10 of those 12 playoff spots. And leave the rest of the NCAA world to fight over the remaining two.

There's about to be many more losers in this new endeavor. No winners.

Frankly, I think this latest move is a desperate attempt by UT to seize instant power & prestige it has steadily lost because of the turd of a product it's put on the field over the last decade.
