[QUOTE="Limey Frog, post: 3259968, member: 16969"] Here's one takeaway about TCU: if you remove Oklahoma and Texas from our schedule and plug in Cincinnati and Oklahoma State, it's still a pretty good-looking football schedule. Yes, I'd rather keep playing OU and Texas, but I don't want to be in an unstable conference with two malcontented gorillas. I've said this already numerous times, but my frame of reference for TCU's annual football schedules is the MWC slates we used to play when I was on campus, and the OOC games that were usually either one-and-done road deals, or at Jerry World, or garbage at home. The last decade of the ten-member Big XII has been good in many ways, but I think it was always unsustainable with Oklahoma and Texas's resentment and egos. The apt comparison of our future conference is not the past ten years but the ten before that. From that perspective I'm very happy indeed. It's going to be fun, competitive, meaningful, and hopefully cordial off the field. Also, I can't wait to start scoring 50 on BYU again. [/QUOTE]
