The Big 12 has a final list of candidates they're interviewing. They are: -The entire American, minus Tulsa and Navy -BYU -Boise State -Colorado State -New Mexico -3 more unidentified schools, so a better question is who is NOT being considered.

The Big 12 was ecstatic that an SEC team applied in Sewanee.

https://twitter.com/mcmurphyespn/status/764086215897251840 drat. 14 seems like a way better idea than 12. Wonder if maybe the other schools are trying to limit the possibility of Texas and OU leaving. I'm surprised Arkansas State and New Mexico are on the list. Although I have thought of Arkansas State as being a good fit geographically (and to steal recruits from Arky), and if I'm not mistaken Texas Tech had a rivalry with New Mexico at one time.

The funny thing is I'm pretty sure New Mexico was considered, along with BYU, when the Big12 initially formed.

I mean on the surface it's honestly not any worse than having the second string schools from both Iowa and Kansas in, those two just got lucky and joined a billion years ago.

PostNouveau posted:OK so Tulane, UCF and SDSU for maximum cool road games, and then gently caress the rest. Big 13. Oh man, if we got Tulane, UCF and BYU I would be so happy. BYU because they are the biggest brand up for grabs and and they embarrassed us so badly in our recent home-home, so it's a pseudo-rivalry game. UCF because it's a fun trip and gets us in to the biggest recruiting hotbed in the country and it's a school in Florida with a massive enrollment which probably equals football success in the long run if they commit to it. Tulane because it's a fun trip and gets us in to Louisiana. In a dream world we would somehow win Colorado back and ditch BYU because fall-winter Boulder trip with Texas Football game gently caress yes. When you get right down to it, adding a lesser team from a sweet vacation destination is the most baller move. It means you can plan a dope vacation that (probably) includes watching your favorite football team win a game. And your team can expand their recruiting territory as a bonus. Although tbf Provo appears to have some gorgeous nature too.

I'm a firm believer that the reason why the Big XII's national perception went down is because we don't have enough cupcakes to inflate the win % of the good teams. We have 2 bad teams and one of those has a magical ability to destroy dream seasons in 1-off games.

Tulane is actually about to improve because they have a real AD now. No more extending guys after 3 win seasons.

Apparently Rice is one of the 20 schools to apply. While I appreciate the athletic department trying, there's no way that happens; the best case for us is probably that Houston joins the Big XII and Rice takes their spot in the AAC (which is basically C-USA from a decade ago anyway).

With 20 teams already I don't get why there are schools that haven't thrown their hat in the ring. Especially schools like Utah State, Southern Miss, WKU, MTSU, and Wyoming that are on the periphery of the Big 12.

I dunno, in a vacuum it's not like inviting Rice (who was in a power conference barely 20 years ago) would be any weirder than inviting Tulane.
