[QUOTE="Buckaineer, post: 131901805, member: 1428007"] They've pretty much crushed South Florida too if you compare what they were before the Big East was destroyed to now. And many many programs not in power conferences have essentially been harmed as far as exposure, and revenues in comparison to the highest paid conferences--essentially dropped to a lower level of competition. The Big East was ended as a football conference and the AAC is now becoming CUSA 2.0 with more future departures likely there. Trying to hang on with greatly reduced finances, no promotion and poor exposure could greatly harm all of the existing BIG 12 members as things change over these next few years. Could already see ESPN at work as they devalued the BIG 12 all season even with multiple only 1 loss teams. Everyone else with 1 loss was still in the playoff slotting, the BIG 12 wasn't even considered until the last week even though some very strong programs like Baylor and OK State had minimal losses deep into the season and compared favorably to one loss programs they pushed.
