No one is saying the Big 12 sucks. I'm finding more and more that people will openly attack someone's taste in football conferences or teams without being first attacked.
i.e. I have a friend who is a Nebraska fan and last time I saw him all he did was say 'Big 10 sucks'.
Seeing has OSU could be in their 3rd Nat'l Championship game in 5 years and Big 10 routinely sends 2 teams to BCS games. I think the Big 12 has some great teams, great rivalries and great tradition. Nebraska has a great tradition and Oklahoma and Texas are perennial contenders. Colorado has been an upset machine this year and look at KU coming out of no where.
I don't even have a problem with a statement like "Big 12 football is better than Big 10 football" That doesn't mean another conference sucks, it only means one is better than another.
Why do many people go around saying ND Sucks, Cubs Suck, Yankees suck, Big 10 Sucks, The SEC is the greatest Conference evar? If I started a thread and said 'Mizzou is the most over-rated team in history' wouldn't you be a lil annoyed with my waste of space and clearly inlammatory if not trollish behavior?
Why did this thread have to go to 'Big 10 sucks, they shouldn't have any nationally broadcast games' when it could have been "I have no interest in the Big 10, I wish the Pac-10, SEC and Big 12 got more games than they do."
