Interesting DB. The spread from first to last is 45 places. But 9 of the 16 are in the bottom part of that range. 2 in the 20s, 2 in the 30s, 3 in the 40s, 4 in the 50s, and 5 in the 60s.
Wonder how the spread and distribution compares to other conferences.

We really need some kind of offset measurement for portal loses.
Overall I would say Bama and Washington’s talent actually fell once you factor in what they lost.
Michigan is losing a lot but that is to the NFL as I don’t think they had the portal loses like UA and UW.

Had a thought today, what if Holgorsen were to go back to Stillwater to be Gundy's OC again? They had a helluva offense when he was there before. I would think that if they could get close to that again in THIS Big12 minus Texas and OU.... that they'd like the results.
What say yall?

Actually what sucks for KU fans (and their opponents fans) is the NFL/Kansas City don't give a shit about them or their game day experience.
They'll get the minimum treatment.
I've been to two Nebraska games at Arrowhead. One was the Big 12 Championship where it had snowed 10" the day before. They didn't even clear out the stadium. We had to clean off our seats and our feet were in 10" of snow.
Both games had literally zero traffic control, so there were one and two hour traffic jams from every direction. By the time we got parked and into the game, it was near the end of the 1st Q.

Oh man, fuck that. Is this Kansas' fault for not being organized with the reno or did something unforeseen happen?

does it really suck? that stadium looked worse than high school stadiums around my area.. For traveling fans who want to see their school play KU at KU (ewww).. Kansas City is a better feel.. sure it won't be close to 70% full, but hotel, food and entertainment outside the actual game should be improved

I mean it sucks if you're a college student that wants to go and not worry about taking a 50 mile Uber. I've also heard Lawrence is an underrated college town. I used to have a client in Chicago that was a KU alum and he loved it there.
