He did not say they made it out “the best”. He simply said they made it out so

much better than what naysayers predicted - that it is a huge win.

The last 13 years, the real winners of expansion aren't who you think they are.

Of course those are the real winners

At least for a little while, until the BIG comes calling

What a joke! Clearly you don't recognize who we are...

5/31/23 2:12pm

A league with no guerillas.... can't wait.

Those "winners" would take Texas, OU, A&M, or any of those teams back in a heartbeat.

5/31/23 1:27pm

You missed the point. They lost them, but still stayed relevant.

5/31/23 1:31pm

If the P12 survives this round, both they and the B12 will again be fighting for relevance in 4 years when they are

5/31/23 1:33pm

Yeah, but the Big 12 has been through contract negotiations w/o them already

I guess it depends on what your definition of “win” is.

5/31/23 1:44pm

Yeah, you missed the point (an easy one to grasp).... read for comprehension.

No I didn’t. He said b12 remnants were the “real winners”. They’re not.

5/31/23 1:48pm

They have a much better media deal than the B12 w/ TX & OU and the PAC.

Benfica1

5/31/23 2:17pm

You know darn well that a renegotiation this year with Texas and OU would have been more lucrative.

5/31/23 2:28pm

At this point you are either not smart or just being obtuse.

Personal attacks by you tell me that I've done well. Thx. Also relax

5/31/23 2:49pm

Compared to where Baylor, Texas Tech, etc. started, they're worse off now

No, he said “the real winners”. What does that mean then?

The Big 12 lost Oklahoma and Texas and still signed a big media contract

Belboz

5/31/23 1:53pm

But would you say that they’re the “real winners”? What does that statement mean to you?

5/31/23 1:57pm

Well, they're definitely not fake or imaginary winners

Belboz

5/31/23 2:02pm

Don't even try to be logical. He's in too deep to accept the loss.

Benfica1

5/31/23 2:18pm

Accept my loss? Ok, guy.

5/31/23 2:31pm

I get it, misery loves company. You are trying to drag the Big 12 down to where the PAC is, but it's not happening.

slatecoug

5/31/23 2:27pm

This isn't about B12 vs P12. He said that the B12 remnants are the "real winners." They're not, that would be the SEC

5/31/23 2:30pm

It's not really about BYU either. It's about Iowa State, Kansas, Baylor, etc.

Belboz

5/31/23 3:03pm

Exactly. And my point is they didn’t win bigger than B10 and SEC teams.

5/31/23 3:05pm

When you look like you're about to loose Power status, and now you are the clear #3 Conf, how's that anything but a win?

slatecoug

6/1/23 12:41am

Of course they are the real winners.

slatecoug

6/1/23 12:34am

You keep trying to compare where the Big 12 is and where the PAC remnants are as being on equal footing, but that's not

slatecoug

5/31/23 2:22pm

Nope, I'm comparing to the "real winners," B10 and SEC. I'm using the P12 as a comparison to show why that is the case.

5/31/23 2:31pm

For some reason the PAC remnants keep pushing the fallacy of a Big, but as long as the B1G has so many bottom dwellers

slatecoug

6/1/23 12:37am

The Big 12 and the PAC remnants are in very different situations right now.

They also are the winners because they have seen the underbelly of the Ute

5/31/23 1:32pm

Maybe "non-losers" or "still-did-okayers." Hard to call those schools winners.

I mean they didn’t lose but I wouldn’t say they won yet. They survive to
