Rank the other 9 teams in the B12...

[Jkclone15]

...by how much you like being in a conference with them.
My rankings:
1. Kansas - Easy win in football, something to aim for in bball. Plus, all my interactions with their fan base have been surprisingly cordial.
2. Kansas State - Our closest counterpart culturally, it's nice having another midwest team that's within driving range.
3. Texas - Austin's cool, plus they add some prestige, even if they've been bad at sports recently.
4. Oklahoma - That CFP $$$
5. Texas Tech - They seem to have a collective chip on their shoulder and it's entertaining.
6. Oklahoma State - Gundy
7. West Virginia - Too far away, Holgerson's ******, Huggy's cool tho.
8. TCU - meh
9. Baylor - sucks

 

[ILiftWithRoyce]

1. KSU
2. Texas
3. Oklahoma
4. OSU
5. KU
6. Tech
7. TCU
8. WVU
9. Baylor

 

[WalkingCY]

Kick Baylor out. NOW please.

That is all.

 

[CYCLNST8]

Kick Baylor out. NOW please.

That is all.

Beat me to it. Happy with every institution but them.

 

[CySanka3]

1. Texas - $, prestige, keeps us in P5
2. Oklahoma - same as above
3. Kansas - Same as OP, BBall prestige
4. KSU - closest neighbors
5. Okie State - state school similarities
6. Tech - I love tacos
7. WVU - Riot Bros, never had an issue till Holgs this year
8. TCU - sure
9. Baylor - go away

Teams i miss most:
1. Mizzou - Regional love to hate them
2. Nebby - Regional love to hate them
3. T A&M - guess they're aggy but i dont like em
4. Colorado - lolz

 

[CycoCyclone]

1) Texas - you're too cool
2) OU - Same
3) KU - bb fans are super annoying
4) KSU is wildly lucky with the Snyder hire, otherwise a peer school
5) Okie State - Long live Van Gundy
6) WVU, - They fell some after Holgerdouche's comments, but another blue collar school. Love huggy
7) TCU - They're the weird cousin at the family reunion
8) Tx Tech - think they're UT, but aren't anywhere near as successful
9) **** Baylor - leave now

 

[awd4cy]

Most all the same more or less but easily would put Baylor at last and WVU second to last.

 

[surly]

"Like" is an interesting word in this context. I like being here with them because I loathe their sorry ass or because they're nice dudes? But here's mine:

1. Ku - love the rivalry, loathe their sorry ass
2. Texas - B12 credentials
3. OU - Texas-lite, plus long-time partner
4. ISU - bros
5. oSu - ISU in orange
6. TxT - us'ens with a twang
7. TCU - everything the right way
8. WVU - out of place
9. Baylor - nice stadium/awesome WBB/horrible reputation

 

[LarryISU]

I imagine ISU would rank pretty low on a list made by fans of the other B12 schools. Especially all Texas schools.

 

[CloneFan4]

1. Oklahoma - Loved Baker and Buddy Hield. Admire their CBB/FBB
2. OSU - Sympathy for 2011. Fans interactions have been solid.
3. KSU - remind me of us. Respect Snyder.
4. TCU - Underdog in CBB. Admire Gary Patterson
5. Tech - Hated Kingsbury. Still will hold that against them.
6. KU - Like Self, but dirty program. Thankful for the easy CFB win.
7. Baylor - Sexual Assault and stuff. Nobody punches my boy Monty.
8. Texas - Historical success. Ego and recent success of the hoks.
9. WVU - Geno Smith shoving an elderly Wally, the biggest puke of a coaching duo in CFB and CBB. Fans harassing Kane's mother, Monte being punched, thug style of basketball, laser beam gate, and fans overall unbearable.

 

[Al_4_State]

Not exactly in order, but close.

KSU - looking into the mirror
OSU - almost like looking into the mirror; just throw a little more "cowboy" into the mix
WVU - salt of the earth folks who like to have a good time
UT - some of the better road fans I've met; their presence makes us lots of $
OU - Don't have anything bad to say about their fans, they also help keep us paid
TTU - seems like we have more in common than we'd realize, don't have enough interactions with them
TCU - My interactions with their fans have been solid, but they seem like a blah fanbase overall
KU - fun for football, absolute **** lickers come basketball season
Baylor - Burn in hell for eternity

I don't think so, but I would love to see how each school collectively ranked us. I'm guessing that our fans have made a big impression around the country, good or bad. We are becoming successful in EVERY sport, so a bit of respect for the awkward kid that's now growing up. But I'm guessing our fans would dictate the polling, again good or bad.

 

[heitclone]

1. K State- always enjoy going to BSFS, fans are a lot like ours
2. Okie Lite- we kind of seem like Okie Lite Lite
3. UT- national recognition
4. OU- ^ + some residual of cheering for them against Tom Osborne
5. Tech- entertaining to watch, decent in most sports but beatable
6.WV- good fans but Holgs....
7.TCU- All of their fans seem like they belong to a country club
8.KU- the basketball equivalent to Husker football fans
9. Baylor- been summed up by every other post

 

[mj4cy]

1. Texas: Love or hate it, we don't have them, we're not a top tier conference. Plus always a big deal to beat them.
2. Kansas: Fun road trip/win in football and basketball rivalry.
3. Oklahoma: Hardest win to get in football and they're a national draw.
4. Kansas State: A lot like us. Loyal fan base, tough at home, not a great recruiting footprint.
5. Oklahoma State:
6. West Virginia:
7. Texas Tech
8. TCU
9. Baylor: the only program I would be happy to have gone.

Go read other schools' boards. A lot of other fanbases like our fans a lot, especially people who have come to Ames for a game.

There's a universal distaste for how much we boo at refs, but that's about all anyone has bad to say about ISU.

 

[knowlesjam]

1. K State- took on the favorite role after Nebby, Misery, and Colo departed
2. KU - *itch in football, arch enemy in bball and delicious to beat at any time
3. Texa$ - Simply a good win in any sport
4. Okie Lite- See K-State except further away.
5. OU - Texa$ with an inferiority complex
6. WV - like us, except for mullets, and burning couches, and huggy bear, and firearms
7. Tech - I like some of Tech's coaches...good for a football win...a challenge now in bball
8. TCU- honesty not a lot to say here...Ft Worth?
9. Baylor - What he/she said

We don't want to boo so much at the refs, but they leave us no choice!

 

[VeloClone]

OSU
KSU
Kansas - FB is harmless but BB makes up for it.
OU - Hate the horns down thing - horns down even when not playing Texas - WTF?
Texas - Ego EGO EGO
TCU - Still doesn't seem right to have them.
Tech - Always seem to be ass hats and I've heard their fans are the worst in the Big 12 to visiting teams
WVU - See post #10
Baylor - obvious

How much I miss old Big 8 schools:
Missouri - All Mizzou fans I know left the league kicking and screaming being dragged by their hair.
Colorado - Would have like to go to road games there but never made it.
A&M - Weirdos
Nebraska - Entitlement City, capital of state of Nebraska.

 

[kentkel]

My ratings primarily have to do with how much I like them vs what they "bring to the table" in the BigXII.
1. Ok State - They used to be on the lower end of the scale when I was at ISU (during the Byron Houston years of basketball - dirty, dirty player & we never won there). Nowadays, I generally like them & cheer for them the most - after ISU of course.
2. KU - I may be in the minority here, & I don't deny that they get extremely favorable treatment at the Phog, but my eldest niece attended and graduated from there - so they are ranked higher here.
3. OU - Lon is a class act & the fact that Hawkeye Bobby Stoops is no longer coaching make them my pick here.
4. TCU - Patterson & Dixon are tolerable
5. TTU - I hoped that Kingsbury had stayed (we have a good record against him) & Beard seems to be classy
6. WVU - Can't stand Thuggs & Basketbrawl. Holgy is annoying - but we have beaten him with some regularity (they are moving down my list, however)
7. KSU - They used to be the lowest one on my list. However, we finally beat the Vampire, he has retired, & I also have a nephew & niece who attend school there.
8. UT - The embodiment of arrogance (almost on par with the Hok fan base)
9. FUBU - Should kick them out of the conference!
