That's a really weird way to put it "Oregon State, Washington State Will Expand to the Big 12" It sounds like those two schools are absorbing the others.
That’s a great school but exceedingly tough to get into. Our kids’ college counselor puts it up with the schools like Scripps, Bates, and Williams for selectiveness.
Engineering may be different but for my business school ass and for my friends in Liberal Arts, Journalism or what have you, where mattered more than what by a gigantic margin. I specifically recall a Big accounting /consulting firm offering jobs to UT English majors but telling BBAs from directional schools to go to grad school.
That TEDCUXYZPDQ Stadium is so weird. On TV it looks gigantic. But when you see it in person it looks like they took a 100,000 seat stadium and just shrank it. All the decks have like 10 rows and all the rows are short.
I guess I simply have a different philosophy on college than most here. I don’t want my kids to look at majors based on earning potential. That’s what grad school is for. They’re looking at small Liberal Arts schools, primarily on the East Coast.
You really only have to watch 3 minutes to get the idea. Especially if you got an earful of “Everything goes through Lubbock” and “Dark Horse Conference Champs” all summer from your company’s assistant office supply manager. These guys were all in on that
They can’t wait for 2023 to be over and it’s week 4.
I'm pretty sure their football will go back to its pre-Briles mean, but I'm honestly curious what happens to their basketball program. The 2024-on Big XII is full of tough basketball teams no one really cares about and Kansas.
I assume baseball will be OK.
I wish I had watched the Oregon-Tech game. I cannot understand how they almost beat/should have beaten Oregon given what I saw against Wyoming and WVU. Home vs. road? Extra tortillas?
There was a Bix XII ad during the Baylor game that focused pretty heavily on both Texas' and OU's championships and Heismans as proof of the conference's right at the big table, and then another ad that basically said "we're gonna be bigger and better next year without them." Seems a bit inconsistent.
