Around the Big Ten

[Whitley]

Feldman had said that UCLA and USC reached out to the big ten months ago.

USC had been reluctant because this would mean leaving UofC setup they have. The reason for leaving is the disparity of dollars between P12 and Big Ten.

If they come to the Big Ten that is huge for the Big ten brand. This would push to 16 teams. Would think you would get 8 teams in each division. 7 games on division. 3 against other division.

I remember back in the 80s when UNL beat the bejesus out of UCLA several times. Perhaps FROSTY!!!! could start that tradition back up. Or, perhaps, the tradition of not sucking goat anus.

UCLA, not USC.

And, yes, it's $$$$$$. To paraphrase SC message board fans...."I'm sick of USC making $20M less per year than Minnesota"

They'll abolish divisions entirely or it'll be like Leaders/Legends again. It won't be geography based. Like I said, they aren't joining in order to play Iowa, Illinois, and Minnesota all the time.

Makes it easier for Frosty to restart Dr. Tom's cocaine-laced pipeline to Southern California!

Californians for Nebraska! Pedarasts for Nebraska!

Just.. Stop.. Please.

Some reports saying this is a done deal saying that there could be a press conference tonight!

...or Rutgers v UCLA...mmmmm baby

Heh. I texted some friends that I can't wait for UCLA - Rutgers.

Pete Thamel --, yes, PETE THAMEL! -- says this is essentially done.

I hope to fucking god the first "New" B10 game is a Big Noon game with M at UCLA.

[iam416]

We're also moving closer to the B10 and SEC basically telling the entire collegiate sports world to eat giant bowl of rhino dick.

If/when UM and OSU play at UCLA, I predict it will be 60% fans of the road team.

[Jeff Buchanan]

If this happens, I think its great. Next step is tiered CFB - two tiers and two leagues among the top tier teams.

60%? UCLA barely fills 40% with no market competition. Closer to 118%. Plus, when it's a 9am local kickoff, only B10 dunderfucks will be silly enough to traipse out to Pasadena for that!
