You'd think with all that Cody Campbell cash Tech could have a paperwork guy on payroll to keep track of that stuff...

But, the same internal jealousy, bickering (Prop 48 eligibility?), and lack of foresight killed it. C'est la vie. Once aggy, CO, and Corn left it was over.

Lulz, both of you forgot about Missouri. While they didn't bitch nearly as much as those 3 they did make a stink too on their way out with aggie. The best part is how well all 4 of them have done in their new conferences without evil Texas since their departure.

August 29Aug 29 An OSU fan somewhere sold their soul and the future of the program for those two last Bedlam home wins. He looked damn good in the two dives he got. Defense was a lot better. OL still stinks.

Not going to argue where they've done better, but if you're basing it winning the SEC East twice, Missouri won the Big 12 North twice. In 2007, they were #1 in the AP and BCS going into the Big 12 Championship game.

August 29Aug 29 Mizzou felt like they should be Big10 even when they were BigXII. They still do, IMHO. Lotsa pasty white people.

September 3Sep 3 Re Farmageddon: So both ADs want it protected like BYU-Utah, etc., but the other programs don’t? I can’t think of a single reason the other programs would care much less be actively opposed. The unanimous opinion should be to protect the game. Is there anything out there providing any reasoning? @Al_4_ISU? Edited September 3Sep 3 by 'stache
September 3Sep 3 I have no idea. If Gene and Jamie want to keep it going, just fucking play it as a non-con game in '27. I've heard guys suggesting that we get a bunch of washed up ex-ISU and KSU players to meet up on a high school field somewhere in NW MO or SE NE (to keep it neutral) and keep the streak alive. Fuck the suits.

It seems to me that if you’re a second tier conference in this environment, one thing you can do to generate interest is to preserve what historical rivalries exist and make sure that they are played every year. Keep the UT AZ, and KS in-state games, the games between the old SWC and Big 8 members, and Farmageddon is definitely on that list.
September 3Sep 3 I do think it's kinda dumb that people keep saying it's "going away". It's not going away. It's just getting played 75% of the time. KU/Mizzou went away. UT/Aggy went away. Backyard Brawl went away. This isn't the same. It's dumb, but it's going to keep getting played on a regular basis as a conference games.

I’m focused in their statement that it was the other programs that opposed. Why would Utah, OKST, Tech, UCF, etc., be actively opposed to protecting that game? You can’t just say something like that without support.

My guess is they weren't opposed to Farmageddon specifically - they were opposed to schools having differing numbers of protected rivalries, so the compromise was in-state games only.

They were opposed to schools having differing numbers of protected rivalries based on whether they have rivals in the Big 12, so they decided to give teams different numbers of protected rivalries based on whether they have another in-state team in the Big 12.

With UT becoming a conference game, I think OU was just fine not having Nebraska every year. Now of course they said that was a reason things went south, but that's exactly like Nebraska leaving for equal revenue after they voted against it forever.

Stoops didn't want the rivalry to continue, cause Nebraska was good back then, and he didn't want to be guaranteed to play Texas and Nebraska every year when no one else did. Considering ALL his recruiting was in Texas, there was no way he was going to give up the Texas game. That was Nebraska's original butt hurt, and they never got over it. Oklahoma was Nebraska's big rivalry, but Texas was Oklahoma's big rival.

September 4Sep 4 I think the expectation was that OU-NU would be a common matchup in the Big XII title game. It’s Nebys fault for sucking shit since ‘99.
