  • but I suspect tailgates and CFB games on crisp sunny Saturdays will continue to be enjoyed by millions of fans nation wide.
    The true CFB experience will take place in smaller places. The big venues will be commercialized and expensive. Johnny Rocketarm is going to need his guaranteed 1Mil endorsements. I doubt that will be necessary in Mt. Pleasant or Adrian.

      Shoot man, you're just trying to justify your trips to see the Chips instead of the mighty Wolverines in AA. Mike and I will miss you. Besides, whose going to block the cold wind for me in November?
      Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished. But the shine on the NC Trophy is embarrassingly wearing off. It's M B-Ball ..... or hockey or volley ball or name your college sport favorite time ...... until next year.

        • The SEC voted unanimously to officially invite Texas and Oklahoma. They could accept as early as tomorrow.

          • Someone in the Big Ten needs to be speaking to just about every team remaining in the Big XII. We can live without WVU.

            I'd have no problem with taking on Okie State, both teams from Kansas and Iowa State. WVU can go to the ACC.

            For divisions, I'd bring Purdue, NW, Illinois and Wisconsin into the BTE, and send all four newbies into the BTW.

            I'd also look for negotiations to take place between the Big Ten and Pac 12 to form some sort of alliance, and also bring in the Rose Bowl to preserve that tradition.

            • Why do we want the Big XII leftovers, we aren't the ACC.

                I wouldn't be thrilled about it, but if we just add 2, Kansas and Iowa State maybe, only one team would have to move from the West to the East. Purdue seems like the obvious choice

                WEST
                Kansas
                Nebraska
                Iowa
                Iowa State
                Minnesota
                Wisconsin
                Northwestern
                Illinois

                If we added all 4 then two teams in the West would have to switch. But if we're going to go to 18 or even 20 teams, then we honestly need to at least TRY and land bigger fish than Kansas State or Oklahoma State.

                  The one team that should be in the West is Michigan. We have a fight song to protect. We are a second-class team and should be allowed to go to the second-class division.

                  Seriously, though, a full SEC schedule adding Texas and Oklahoma is going to be difficult to navigate and go undefeated. Expect Finebaum to begin lobbying for at least 6 SEC teams to automatically qualify in the 12-man playoff.

                  The B10 has said it was only going to allow AAU teams into the conference. USC and Washington?? I still say Virginia is the best get.

                  • I would be fine with Virginia and actually prefer them to any of the Big12 leftovers, but I'm not sure how much mutual interest there is. There was a lot of talk about us approaching them the last big realignment rodeo that came to nothing. Maybe things have changed

                    I don't see the Pac12 stuff happening unless it's for football only.

                    • There should be just one 128-team conference with a 7-game winner take all playoff. No need for this regular season mumbo-jumbo.

                      • Well, the thought DID occur to me that conferences themselves will eventually just go away and we'll all be independents

                          • That'd be like frying up a bunch of great chicken wings and pouring Kraft BBQ sauce on them.

                                Re 12 team playoff... The answer has always been to do a 4 team playoff AFTER the New year Day bowls.
