Im actually more optimistic than most about the 'new big12' over at orange power.

The bottom line is that Oklahoma State fans:
1) don't want to be in a conference without any anchor programs. As that means we aren't in a power conference
2) don't want to be in a conference with as many mid major type programs as the new big 12 has

That said, football is right around the corner and this next year the above 2 problems don't exist. So I guess just living in the present helps....

1) So you are saying OK st is not an anchor program, and likely not wanted anywhere anytime soon outside of B12.

2) U are now simply a mid major program with other mid majors.

Ok now understand your fears.

god the ucf fans here and reading comprehension don't go well together. For the millionth time, yes Oklahoma State is not an anchor program. And no, that doesn't mean they are a mid-major program or that they are completely unwanted. That's a false choice. There is a large in between space between what constitutes an anchor program and what constitutes mid-major type programs. Programs like Oklahoma State are just one example.

Still a loser mentality. Oh poor little us Oki State fans, we NEEED a big brother to carry us along life's journey. Grow a pair.

Does a conference need one dominant program?

Isn’t balance better?

This guy must be a USF fan because he think he's entitled to certain things just simply because of history. You must be a hoot to be around.
