Could also do a divisional split that’s an East/West split but splits up the state of Texas.
B12 Board
- Thread starter BraveKnight
- Start date
Where does OuT sit if they stick around until 2025 (don’t think it will happen, but just incase)
I want nothing to do with those divisions just due to travel.
Maybe something like:
Old Timers
Iowa State
Oklahoma State
Kansas State
Kansas
Baylor
Texas Tech
Young pups
BYU
WV
TCU
Houston
UCF
Cincinnati
Besides the board you mention, Cyclone Fanatic includes an area for Big 12 discussion and Heartland College Sports is dedicated to covering the Big 12, including the incoming teams, and has a Members Forum (I don't know how much it is used).
On CF:
SPORTS
Big XII Conference New
Everything relating to the Big XII Conference that isn't ISU specific.
But if you think the travel is bad in the one I suggested, imagine having schools in Morgantown WV, Provo Utah, and Orlando FL in the same division. That would be twice as bad.
I see, and I’ll definitely check it out, but I’d like to have a board with fans of all B12 teams, not just 1 or 2 at a time. The board I mentioned has fans from UCF, Kansas, BYU, Houston, Cincinnati, WVU, and Baylor already, even with an Iowa State fan that posts occasionally. I personally like hearing the perspective from all the different fanbases and schools in the conference.
Is this about basketball because I don’t think Kansas plays football?
And I thought Legends and Leaders were bad division names...
Eh. Original 6 shouldn’t be separated, we’ve been through enough.
I like basketball too. Contrary to popular belief, UCF actually plays basketball too
The East/West split is my preference too.
If you want to care about geography/travel at all, then BYU cannot be in a division with either WVU or UCF, and probably not with Cincinnati. That limits your options. East/West is the best resolution.
OK, I just looked at that board. Not opposed to it or the idea, I just don't like that format. I guess I am spoiled by CF. I will probably still visit from time to time but MUCH prefer the visual layout and structure of CF.
I agree, the board skin is definitely outdated, I’m trying to get the owner to update it, he said he would a little while ago. If you guys just started posting every once in a while that would be a big boost, as we are trying to get more old B12 posters.
Lol I meant fans of old guard B12 teams, not old age posters
I don't understand why conferences have rigid divisions, I think the SEC/Big 10 could benefit from a rotation every 2-4 years to maximize match-ups, yet also keep some traditional annual rivalries as well.
The new Big 12 has a pretty clear North vs South divide. East vs West gets a bit muddled as to possibly splitting up in Kansas and Texas.
