True.  I guess I could get used to playing Kansas State as much as whatever else we play now.

The B12 in terms of reputation, money, bowl tie ins and influence is on a whole other level than where we are now. I personally have always liked Ok State and Tx Tech, they are really entertaining to watch and it would be fun to reignite the rivalry that was starting with West Virginia. We will be lucky if we get the invite to the B12.

If there’s one thing we’ve proven the last few years is we have tons of luck.

If we do have our pick of all that, my order would be:

1. ACC

2. B1G

3. Big XII

 

This as well as the post you quoted is delusional. Our options are aac, sunbelt, downgrade to indy or fcs, or shut the football program down. Of our options I'd rank them:

1. Fold the football program effective immediately

2. Downgrade to fcs

3. Go independent 

4. Aac

5. Sunbelt

Could do option #3 and become the college football version of the Washington generals. Play all away games. Travel from city to city getting battered and collecting one off fees from schools happy to have a free win and an extra home game

Ding ding ding. We have a winner, Johnny.  If people don't like USF's opponents in the AAC, just wait until they see what it would look like independent - heck look at U Conn.  Not to mention the TV contract would be limited to having all games on Great 38 in Tampa.

LOL. Take a pill and step down from the chair.

Right now our option is AAC which is better than any option you stated.

Sooner than you think the Big12 will be a better option that we will be invited too.

Remember this post. Give 5-6 year max for the jump

Considering that this thread has amassed 2291 pages over 9.5 years, that is an average of 241 pages per year

Statistically speaking, your post will be buried by 1241 pages of stellar TBP discourse in 5 years

We’ll maybe someone will remember it in 5 years or so. But anyways I couldn’t careless if they did or not. The facts are that there is better chance that we are in Big12 in five years than the ridiculous choices I was responding too.

Gonna be hard to pay for a stadium that way.
