This is the only reason I'd ever want us to join the Big 12. The fact that there are alot of closer schools. The ability to road trip. Our closest in conference game is Ole Miss which is 400 some miles from Fayetteville... in that same distance, I'm told you could travel to seven Big 12 schools. Oklahoma, Oklahoma St., Mizzou, Kansas, K-State, probably Texas Tech and...Nebraska? I don't know.

It's like a civil war in Africa; you know, it doesn't really concern you too much. - P.J. O'Rourke
