Thank you for proving OK's point once again why the BigXII should not expand to 12 members and have a championship game.

I know right, and really if the BIG EAST would offer a "Football Only" membership I would be for it.
It is not right that a 11-2 Conference Champion is going to be stuck in the BBVA Bowl against WKU.

I agree Maize,they should be in a better bowl. But with that said knowing their fan base and their hate of the Big East, I won't be shedding any tears for them

Not true, the Big XII gets a BCS bid regardless of a conference title game. CUSA had only one shot and blew it. Also its TX that doesnt want to expand. OK pres Boren said he wants 12.
As for Houston, this will surely push them in the BE now. Over here they win the conference and dont need to be perfect to get a bid (at least for the next two years)

USM has the worst fans on these boards. Obnoxious, rude, and not very witty or creative. Just pure hate. I hope they enjoy their "cluster", um ... I mean "alliance".
They make the ACC fans look good (not easy to do).

Also, it's funny when a fan says something like "We are C-USA" when he and his school would dump C-USA faster than Brent Mussberger could pull the thumb out of his mouth if they got a bid from the Big East.

Southern Miss fans, I already knew you guys played good football. C-USA problem has always been perception and bad tv and bowl contracts. Look I would love to get the old band back together with Cincinnati, Louisville, Southern Miss, TCU, and Houston all in the same conference but its not going to happen.
The new Big East v.2 and the Alliance are still going to be pretty good football conferences. They might not have the respect that some of the other conferences get but they should.

Not about the BCS bid but having an undefeated team lose in the 13th game is something the Big XII has been burned by and isn't a fan of.

Not only 'would' dump C-USA, their school was instrumental in pushing the Alliance. If UH had the choice to actually stay in C-USA or go the Big East that would be one thing - but that isn't even an option. Anyone that stays is going to be relegated to an even weaker entity for less $ because a few schools got a hair up their ass about some way to contrive to get into a BCS bowl. The funny thing is, you often hear from posters that there is no sense in adding schools to the BE if there is no AQ, when in fact the opposite is true - there is no reason in the whole wide world to be in the Alliance if that happens.
In fact, the money is going to get so slim in relation to the increase in expenses, that I think the better option is now to stay in C-USA or the MWC for all-sports and go independent in football.

What took you so long? You hadn't won a depleted CUSA since 2003.
