I'll be the first to say that if Texas and Texas A&M wanted to save the Big 12 conference they could easily do so. They are probably asking themselves the same question we are though...is the Big 12 worth saving? I think it's only worth saving if they broker an alliance with the Pac 10. If that's not possible then we'll have the same problems we've always had in the Big 12; too much of the power (TV) is in Texas.

Well to be fair at the time Nebraska was one of those mega popular powerful teams...while they still have a big following, they no longer have the same clout they did when this was negotiated, during their 3 national title run
