duckfandan Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 This is crazy person talk here, but if there are no more seats at the SEC/B1G table, would a 'best of' conference be able to at least keep a mirage of tenability? West Division Oregon Washington Cal Stanford Zona Colorado Kansas TCU East Division Clemson Florida St Miami Virginia North Carolina GT OkSt Houston Doubtful, but seems a lot better than sitting in the Pac-10.

Mano Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Just hoping Utah is left with a seat when all the dust settles. I fear that there are several schools from the Pac, Big 12 and ACC that will be left on the outside looking in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scscsc89 Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 I don’t see why this puts any added pressure on Notre Dame to suddenly make a move. It’s ESPN vs. Fox and the Irish have NBC all to themselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if either has the fortitude to do that, but if they did that for a couple of years, I can't see the Irish not caving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scscsc89 Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Just read that apparently NBC is going to be part of the Big Ten’s massive new media deal. Now it makes more sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes perfect sense, losing even more money will make the remaining teams stronger! FFS people are stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only question is whether UA, ASU, CU, and Utah will be in the Pac-12 or Big 12. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mano Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Sounds like B1G is going to wait for ND to make decision then go forward from there. Just because they are not adding Oregon and Washington at this moment does not mean they do not ultimately get added. My guess is once they have ND in the bag they all get together and decide on number and which other teams to add. I would guess tOSU, USC, ND and maybe UM will be driving the bus.

Mano Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Could see politicians throwing a wrench in this, but would end up hurting schools forced to stay behind more than benefitting the schools with the opportunity. I cannot see the B1G being strong armed by Oregon and Washington to take the Beavs and Wazzu. Perhaps if USC had insisted they take the original Pac8, but that ship has obviously sailed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tying WSU and OS to UW and UO could sink any chance UW and UO have of remaining one of the big boys. It's a lose lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
