Colorado Joins the Pac 10 Before Nebraska Leaves - Does Colorado Get the Blame For Breaking Up the Big 12?

PrintIt's official - Colorado has accepted an invitation to join the Pac 10 conference. At least they're not going to be left out in the cold.
A quick question for you fans, though. If they're in another conference, are Husker fans still going to hate them?
And since they officially went first, are they going to get the blame for breaking up the Big 12 instead of Nebraska?

Wow
Roughly 24 hours of reading this site, and already I’m in the plurality opinion regarding who killed the Big XII…

We hate Colorado, when did that happen?
I thought we had to care about them before we could hate them. :-D
88 votes for Texas and we're trying to preserve the Big 12
Bitter much? :)
Hate to see y’all leave but I’ll enjoy the Rose Bowl of 2013 against ya.
Stumpy: It's called the '80s. Ford was president, Nixon was in the White House, and FDR was running this country into the ground. I was bummin' in a hole-in-the-wall town in what is now called "Utah".
Wait, what?
Texas is trying to preserve the Big 12? Give me a swig of that Kool-Aid when you’re done, will ya?

how
did you vote?
for Nebraska?
I’d be curious to see the same poll on a non-biased web site.

UT, aTm, & OU
Now KCTV5 is reporting that UT & aTm are pursuing the Big 10, and OU is pursuing the SEC.
High level sources in multiple conferences have told KCTV5 that Texas and Texas A&M are looking to move to the Big Ten Conference and have petitioned for membership, while the University of Oklahoma is planning on petitioning the Southeastern Conference to become a member of its conference.

My head hurts. Make it stop.
Oklahoma Looking To Move To SEC, Needs 1 Other School
Hey guys – I hear Baylor is looking for a seat.

I… don’t …believe it….
I thought B10 would surely lose UT and A&M to Pac 10
I’m calling rumor mill on that article.

KC TV reports Texas & Aggies to Big10, and Oklahoma to ... SEC
Missouri would be a good team to join SEC with OU
Big Buff fan here. Great day for us and a good day for the Corn as well. Someone had to stand up to the UT big-brother, alpha-dog nonsense coming from that state.
The Corn did, and CU did. It was about time someone showed those guys the Big XII did not revolve around UT. The move to the Pac-10 will be good for CU. The Big 10 will be good for NU. Keeping the Big XII the way it was… was best for UT.
If I had one of those stupid looking corn hats you guys wear, I’d put one on for 10 minutes. The Corn done did well but telling UT to stick their ultimatum where the sun don’t shine. Well played and well done. My thanks extended to NU.
I'm rooting for Team USA at the World Cup!
So.. about northwestern
Who gets the NU abbreviation??
I mean… they technically are the older school?
Within Nebraska
The school is always UNL, so I don’t think I’ve ever referred to it as NU. Online, though, no one outside the state knows what UNL means, so…

Northwestern already has an abbreviation,
jNU.

No matter what they do or how many times they beat a top 10 Iowa team, they're still...
just Northwestern.

I prefer jNW, but that's semantics.

Media outlets all over Texas...
are refuting the KCTV5 story. It’s 100% bogus.
[Osborne's] school has this ultimatum from Texas to either spit or get off the pot. Commit to the Big 12, Texas is saying, or we'll take this Pac-10 offer, rake in more cash and kiss the Big 12 goodbye. It's on you, Nebraska. Texas is good at this sort of thing -- it could blame Cadillac for those Toyota brake problems and get away with it. - Dennis Dodd

HUSKERS IN THE BIG 10
Can someone bring us new Big Teners up to speed on the obnoxious fans that will replace Colorado, Missouri, and Oklahoma’s? Oh yeah, Texas’ too.
