    Not gonna happen. The Aggies are a sure veto and Oklahoma would have to bring Okie State with them.

    I say let's go! Once again Winston is in the deep with short pants on. OU doesn't "have" to do that and might not. This would/should put the gumps and aubie in the east

    It requires a majority vote of current members. I think they are in if both schools want in.

    Don’t like it. Too many great teams in one conference. Not a good competitive balance.

    Here's the rub

    The conference is going to want this. With the cfp going to 12 it is inevitable that expansion is back on the table and those 2 were smart to go first. If we don't take them we are left with a bunch not as good.

    Problem is they need .75 vote to approve. Mizzou is a no, atm is a fuck no so that leaves only 2 schools in the east that don't want to play Bama every year to kill it. Shouldn't be hard to find them. Hello Ga and FL.

    Flip side is atm is arrogant as fuck and think they deserve the world. Tell them, psst if we do this you don't have to play them every year...might work.

    Going to take a lot of money and even more blackmail to pull it off
