I'll catch hell for saying this, I'm sure, but the SEC does one thing I like.
When they split into East/West to facilitate a championship game, they paired each school with one traditional rival from the other division to play every year.
I think OU has benefitted greatly from playing A&M and Tech regularly, but giving up the annual Nebraska game was a high price to pay.
So what if the Big XII paired up teams? How would you pair them? Here's my proposed matchups:
Oklahoma - Nebraska
Texas - Colorado
Texas A&M - Missouri
Texas Tech - Kansas State
Okla State - Kansas
Baylor - Iowa State
