Happy game day Cowboy fans, go Pokes. Three Thoughts • Game preview, kick time, and TV info to go with predictions for today’s South Dakota State game (PFB) • Seeing that Utah has won two of the last three Pac-12 titles, it’s reasonable to have them as the favorites to win the league with OSU as a dark horse (CBS Sports) • These two pods are excellent previews for today’s (!) home football game – Feels like 45′ Podcast and Bleav in OK State Two Quotes • It’s so pretty: chefs kiss

Fun to see guys leave OSU for the right level and thriving. Gunnar Gundy made his Emporia State debut last night, leading the Hornets to a 30-14 win against Washburn. He was 27-for-41 for 292 yards, three touchdowns and one interception. Also ran for 99 yards, leading the team. — Marshall Scott (@MarshallScottOK) August 30, 2024 One Question • Is there a world where adding UConn to the Big 12 outside of a basketball-only addition makes sense to…
Even if you give UConn time to invest in its FB program (2031), I think it’ll still drag the conference down.
Personally, I would do the following:
Add UConn on the condition that their FB program drops down to FCS
Add three other Big East schools to further strengthen the basketball side of things
If and when the ACC implodes, add four schools from that conference, giving the Big 12 20 football schools and 24 basketball schools.
That team down south looks very average after watching yesterday, like, below .500 for the season.
