Oklahoma to the Pac-12?

According the ESPN there is a lot of leadership at Oklahoma that is still interested in moving to the Pac-12 from their current conference the Big 12.  They are also reporting that Texas officials met with Oklahoma big wigs and they left Norman feeling very doubtful that Oklahoma would be staying.  What does this mean for the Big 12?  Well there are a whole lot of situations at this point the worst one of which being that both Oklahoma and Oklahoma State move over to the Pac-12.  That would leave the Big 12 in a very bad position.  Texas has already made it clear that it would not consider a 7 team Big 12 viable.  We all know what has happened since last year when Colorado and Nebraska decided to go elsewhere.  Now Texas A&M, Oklahoma, and Oklahoma State are all looking elsewhere while everyone else in the conference minus Texas is talking possible lawsuit against everyone leaving the conference.  If you are a Texas fan like us, you are just sitting and waiting for everything to unfold. Lets be honest with each other, short of a death penalty there is not a whole lot that could really hurt Texas athletic program.  Texas A&M will not get in if there are

2009-2010 Big 12 North and South Predictions

I will start out by reviewing what is in my opinion to be the roughest toughest part of any conference in the NCAA.  The 2nd place Longhorns look to take it all this season, but with the intensity of their schedule at this point could lead a sleeping giant in Oklahoma State.  I know that you boomer sooner fans out there are not going to like what I have to say, but I just dont think its your year boys.  I am hoping not at least.  WE (My fellow Longhorn fans) crushed you once and will do it again.  Some key games to look at this season are the following (all times are Central Standard Time):

• September 5th
  • (9) Oklahoma State vs. (13) Georgia ABC at 2:30PM
• September 12th
  • (22) Iowa at Iowa State 11:05AM

• September 19th
  • (2) Texas at Texas Tech ABC at 7:00PM CST
  • (24) Nebraska at (7) Virginia Tech ABC at 2:30PM
• October 8th
  • (24) Nebraska at Missouri ESPN at 8:00PM
• October 17th
  • (2) Texas vs. (3) Oklahoma ABC at 11:00AM

  • (2) Texas vs. (9) Oklahoma State TBA
• November 14th
  • (24) Nebraska at (25) Kansas TBA
• November 28th
  • (9) Oklahoma State at (3) Oklahoma TBA

These are the games that I am looking for and will hopefully be able to attend all of them.  We will see though it depends on ticket prices and what not.  If I do, you can be sure that I will be uploading pictures soon after.  You know how we roll at SidelineBlog.  Anyways, if you guys know of any other games you would be interested in seeing let me know and I will try to find out how you can watch them when they come up.  Here are my quick predictions in case you were wondering.
