Trying to figure out WTF this implies. 

This implies TX and OU in the BIG12 through 2024, that sucks if true. 

So 14 teams, if divisions then that's 6 games within your division and 3.5 games cross division games each year to play everyone at least once, very awkward.

If no divisions then maybe 3 teams twice and 5 once over 2 years for 8 conference games , or 5 teams twice and 4 teams once over 2 years for 9 conference games, this would make the most sense to me, since we already have 9 conference games a year.

After seeing an article I realize the tweet refers to basketball,  not football. I guess we should see a football schedule soon.

Keep in mind that the two losses that Texas has is not bad losses at all. They played both teams really close. This is a fun conversation to have.

Going to have to disagree. The Tech loss was a bad loss. Texas should have won that game by at least 2 touchdowns.

Yeah but some of the blown up coverages should have been avoided. Regardless it was a good game

So he faced in the first half and obviously overcame it, right?

Maybe one quarter.  Half of our time was spent on the orange side in the first half. 12 plays maybe. 
 

… but he loved every minute of it.

Going to be able to attend a home game for the first time in a decade.  Looking for two (2) tickets to the UT/Baylor game. Drop me a DM if you are looking to sell.

No surprise,  if we are going to stay for another 2 years with 14 teams this seems like the way to do it.

To get to 9 games implies we play 5 teams both years and the remaining 8 teams once in the 2 years.

We know we will play 049u and TT both years, all that is left is to find out who the other 3 teams will be.

I'm surprised and disappointed that they couldn't figure out an early exit, maybe it can still happen for 2024 if they get a new early TV deal, but I'm not holding my breath.

Is it just me or are the hype videos better when you actually have hope?
