After the Cotton Bowl and this years College World Series, it seems that the Arkansas-Oklahoma rivalry is really growing. I know a lot of Hog fans who list Oklahoma up there with the hated, and Oklahoma fans who do the same.
IMO, its always good to have another rival, and I hope that someday Arkansas and Oklahoma will play each other in football, since they already do in mens and womens basketball, and baseball.

Ah, yes... Though we have met more than a few times in various bowl games, I think there is more of a bond than a split between the 2 programs because, above all, there is an undying hatred of the Longwhorns shared by both.

I'd love to see Baylor and/or osu banished to another league (where they could be more comptetive) and replaced by Arkansas.
That would only serve to make this conference (and especially the southern division) stronger.

I actually agree with you on that. My first reaction was to say that Arkansas would never leave the greatest conference in the nation, but as I think about it, Arkansas has much stronger ties to the Big 12 than to the SEC.
It would be easier for Hog fans to go to away games if we were in the Big 12, and our history with the Texas schools is very strong from the SWC.
Plus, if Baylor was replaced with Arkansas, I think the Big 12 would just strengthen its claim to being the top football conference in the country. Which, IMO, the Big 12 and SEC are tied for that right now.
And I would love to beat the crap out of Oklahoma in every sport at least once a year!

If you take Baylor out, another doormat will replace them and the same will be said about them.
Baylor wasn't always a doormat (see their teams from the late 70s-early 80s), and they won't always suck.
As for OSU, no way they're going to be in a different conference from OU.
