Big Ten and other Conference Expansion

[muffler dragon]

I like it. For every heavy hitter we take (like Toledo), we have to take someone who will take the L (like Eastern m*ch*g*n).

EABOD.

The B1G could get to thirty in fifteen seconds by absorbing the MAC. Who the fuck did he have in mind to hit 16, I wonder.

Does scUM have veto power, cuz no way are they adding that many L's to their schedule every year.

Toledo's only a heavy hitter when they play Boise State, so unless they have a guaranteed game with trucker U every year they are no good.

Thujone's take on re-alignment part 17 - this could be copied into the shaggy bevo thread but it fits here too

Thujone is [censored]ing brilliant. My personal favorite? (Not Marlon Favorite, but personal favorite.)

Florida as the green Johnson? How appropriate!

Oklahoma may be looking at jumping ship soon:

NORMAN, Okla. -- University of Oklahoma president David Boren says multiple conferences have shown interest in the Sooners recently and he expects to decide whether to leave the Big 12 or not within the next three weeks.
Boren said Friday that he has received "interest from other conferences and other universities, so it's really a tribute to the strength of our program at the University of Oklahoma that there is so much interest in us."
Boren said Oklahoma will carefully evaluate its options and suggested the process could take as little as three days but likely no longer than three weeks.
Texas A&M announced this week that it planned to leave the Big 12 next year. That would reduce the 12-team league to only nine members.

Would be great to get them for football. US News & World Report has them at #111 for best US colleges, with Nebraska at #104, so they'd be in the same low-ish area... I don't know if we'd want them for their academics.
