All of those schools except Kansas have better football programs than Nebraska does right now.  

If you're talking strictly about money, well, okay.  But then you just sound like an arrogant wealthy Texican.  Is that REALLY what you want to sound like?

I wish it wasn't this way, but it's what makes the world go round

 Believe a Longhorn fan when I tell you this-- money's completely pointless when it's not translating to on-field success.  I would know.  There's no Revenue National Championship trophy.

And not to belabor the point here, but if y'all hadn't made the move at all, the B12 would still be intact, in its original incarnation.

I agree, money doesn't buy championships

unfortunately, the greedy SOBs that lead universities are very interested in loads of money and only use athletic championships to help produce even more revenue

and your point about the crystal ball is interesting, but there's absolutely no way of knowing what might have been if UNL hadn't joined the B1G

froth (n.)

c. 1300, from an unrecorded Old English word, or else from Old Norse froða "froth," from Proto-Germanic *freuth- "froth" (source also of Swedish fradga, Danish fraade). Old English had afreoðan "to froth," from the same root. The modern verb is late 14c., from the noun. Related: Frothed; frothing.

I don't drink a cappuccino very often, but when I do, I expect some top notch froth.
