It appears that the Big 12 lives, despite varying reports over the past two weeks to the contrary.
From Manhattan and Lawrence, Kansas to Waco earlier this week, college administrators breathed sighs of relief, knowing no one would be left behind...yet.
But, with Texas A&M still poised to hit the door after 2011, the Big 12 is really the medium-sized 9. With Missouri half-way to the SEC already, we're looking at 8.
Don't worry, I've got a way to change that.
