You hit on the points that kept this from happening previously. Travel times/costs would be negligible considering most current games would be in your division, so mostly 1 hour differences. The B1G is also a fit, no doubt.

But I fear you underestimate the level of regard in the sec. I wouldn't be surprised at all for them to kill a deal with UT and ou.

If you Think the SEC won’t jump at the opportunity to Add Texas your just in denial,,,I hate how cocky Texas is to, but come’on Man, an opportunity to add a brand that big, I doubt the SEC doesn’t use that avenue, and even if it is a block, they’ll look for a way. 

But I doubt Texas wants the SEC, you go from being able to make the playoffs every year to, maybe once every 5 with the tough schedule . 

I wish there’d bring the old SWC back 

Texas never wanted in the sec and would never join that conference as is.  A&M has no problem and has now gone to a virtual open admission policy.  Not long ago, aggy was right behind Rice and UT in admission difficulty.   In the SEC, and in their quest to try to one up Texas they have fallen behind most of the bigger schools in the state, including UofH.   Texas publicly thumbed their noses at the SEC and ruffled some feathers.  But you are right, from a financial standpoint, Texas is the crowned jewel of college sports.  

I envision it all blowing up eventually and the blue bloods reorganizing it all.  Should be funny to see how quickly aggy may have to come sniffing for a burnt orange jock.   They better hope it happens after Abbott is long gone.

Diaz hired Major Applewhite as the new OC...
