[QUOTE="This Ain't Chopped Liver, post: 3044328, member: 74137"] It isn’t all about money and football. The PAC 12 is a proud academically prestigious conference, and a best geographic fit for all those schools, Colorado being borderline as it was once part of a good Big 12. They have stability, and some brotherhood that the Big 12 has demonstrated none of. People keep thinking the PAC is vulnerable; well, they are too proud to breakup, they stick out their chest as a conference - complete in academia and all athletics, not just as individual football schools. Many proud Texans do not seem to understand that the Big 12 does not have the prestige and tradition that the three Alliance conferences have. Academically, Rice, Texas and Aggies brought something, but they are gone. The only thing the Big 12 now has is Texas high school football players, and Kansas basketball. Time for some humility and reality. If lucky enough to be in the PAC 12 you are on prestigious bedrock. [/QUOTE]
