Don’t leave out the MAC. They dominate the 110-132 spots in attendance rankings.

It use to be 8 before the SWC broke up :thinking::thinking::thinking:

Idaho went back to FCS years ago.

That’s WHY it broke up!

One whole conference with only Texas schools in it :face_with_monocle:

That’s what the internet says, and it’s never wrong!

Nah Texas has 32M people and is one of the few states where people are still having kids. So much in fact, that other states come here to get our players.

CA and FL have 4 each.

Honestly, of your list, the three that stick out and should not be there are Baylor, SMU and TCU.

Small private schools with small footprints and not much recent success (ie national titles). In comparison, USC and Miami have 11 national titles between them and about 11 Heisman winners.

ESPECIALLY SMU.

No ranked finish or conference title in about forty years.

We’ll see how they do against Tulane.

No way Jose. Texas is 2nd largest state in the Union and growing and we all know football is King here. We have schools in Big 12, SEC and ACC. Every Conference but Big 10 has planted a flag in this territory.

Oh hell yeah….used to get it at Coney.

If you’ve never had Delaware Punch you are missing out.

I’ll have to pour a little out for Delaware Punch…which, according to Wikipedia, isn’t actually from Delaware (the state)…

Delaware Punch was a fruit-flavored soft drink. Its formula used a blend of fruit flavors, with grape (Methyl anthranilate) being the most prominent. It was not carbonated and was caffeine-free.

Delaware Punch was created by Thomas E. Lyons in 1913. The brand was owned by The Coca-Cola Company, but has been discontinued since 2020.

Delaware Punch was named for the Delaware grape cultivar from which its flavor was derived. The grape was first grown in Delaware County, Ohio, and the drink therefore had no affiliation with the state of Delaware.

In October 2020, as part of their efforts to scale back on underperforming brands during the COVID-19 pandemic, The Coca-Cola Company had announced the underperforming regional brands such as Tab, Northern Neck Ginger Ale, Coca-Cola Life, Diet Coke Feisty Cherry, Zico and Delaware Punch will be discontinued by the end of 2020, in favor of focusing more on their popular brands.

Just goes to show that Texas is king in Football. However, it gives UH way too much competition on the recruiting trails…

Big mistake. Solid indentity in the colonial/coastal conference… a solid basketball conference. Not a good fit for a conference that’s on shaky ground at best. Bad move.

We proved we belonged before we were in.

Actually, UH and SMU don’t have to ā€œproveā€ anything. None of the ā€œP4ā€ ā€œP5ā€ P-whatever schools proved anything. They were all self-anointed.

It really kills me how people just eat whatever narrative is put in front of them. It’s not just ignorant, it’s really dumb. And it’s the reason the ā€œhavesā€ get to trample the ā€œhave notsā€. Because they can always justify themselves, and they know if the media amplifies their propaganda, the ignorant will always eat it.

I won’t even go into the aspect of a ā€œhave notā€ amplifying the narrative used to unfairly exclude them. That’s the worst, dumbest, and most unprincipled part of it…

Not personal to you. There are many here who do the same thing. It’s just so pathetic. And it really needs to stop. Or else don’t say a word when the Coogs are left out again after the separation.
