SpectatorOk so I was doing some thinking about the whole conference shuffle that is coming.
As I see it, there are several situations that may unfold.
Situation 1: Notre Dame joins Big 10.
– In this situation, the Big 10 would probably just stop at 12; Big 12 would probably stay together; Pac 10 will probably try to take a couple teams from MWC or will stay at 10 and the world goes on as normal.
Situation 2: Notre Dame tells Big 10 to *edited* off.
– This will *edited* all the conferences
– Missouri and Nebraska will bolt for Big 10.
– This causes Texas to bolt for Pac-10, bringing Texas Tech, Texas A&M, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, and probably Colorado with it.
– Big 10 sucks up Kansas, Kansas State, and Iowa State
At this point, things could either stop, or get *edited*ing haywire.
**If SEC decides not to expand, Baylor will join MWC, along with Nevada and Boise State, and MWC will effectively take Big 12’s place as a BCS conference.
**If SEC becomes intimidated and decides it will also expand to 16 teams, it will likely take 3 from ACC plus USF from Big East
– This will cause ACC to expand i.e. engulf Big East, taking UConn, Pitt, and Syracuse. At this point, ACC can either stay at 12 or up to 16 to match the other conferences. Not sure if they would want to take some of the other remaing Big East teams (WVU, Cincy, Louisville, Rutgers) because of academic concerns (believe it or not, ACC actually cares about academics).
– If ACC decides to go to 16, taking those other 4 schools or perhaps some C-USA schools (Memphis? UAB? Southern Miss? Marshall? god I hope not ECU), MWC would probably expand again to 16 teams as well, taking Fresno State, New Mexico State, SMU, and UTEP.
This brings us the following conferences (changes in bold):
Big 10
- Ohio State
- Michigan
- Illinois
- Wisconsin
- Penn State
- Iowa
- Purdue
- Michigan State
- Indiana
- Northwestern
- Minnesota
- Nebraska
- Missouri
- Kansas
- Kansas State
- Iowa State
Pac-10
- Washington
- Washington State
- Oregon
- Oregon State
- Cal
- Stanford
- UCLA
- USC
- Arizona
- Arizona State
- Texas
- Texas Tech
- Texas A&M
- Oklahoma
- Oklahoma State
- Colorado
SEC
- LSU
- Auburn
- Arkansas
- Mississippi State
- Alabama
- Ole Miss
- Tennessee
- Georgia
- Florida
- South Carolina
- Kentucky
- Vanderbilt
- Florida State
- USF
- Clemson
- Georgia Tech
ACC
- Boston College
- Maryland
- Virginia
- Virginia Tech
- Duke
- UNC
- NC State
- Wake Forest
- Miami
- Connecticut
- Pittsburgh
- Syracuse
- Cincinnati
- West Virginia
- Louisville
- Rutgers
MWC
- BYU
- Utah
- Air Force
- TCU
- San Diego St
- New Mexico
- Colorado State
- UNLV
- Wyoming
- UTEP
- Boise State
- Nevada
- Baylor
- New Mexico State
- Fresno State
- SMU
5 super conferences, all the leftover schools dont get *edited* basically, though conference USA might expand to take over some of the remaining schools.
So long story short, I hope Notre Dame joins the Big 10 lol.

SpectatorSo is this primarily for football, because if it is basketball, the ACC would rape everyone.
Dear god, WVU, UCONN, UNC, Duke, Pitt, Syracuse, Cincy, Wake……..VT…… (lol)
I mean I want to see the Big 12 die as much and anyone, but srsly… Its a pretty far fetch for the Pac-10 to allow 6 new members. I thought I read sumwhere that the PAC10 comish was saying yes they are open to expansion, but no they won’t expand greatly?
ill try to find the link for that.
ACC has already stated that they also are interesting in taking ECU if the opportunity arises. ECU plays nearly all the ACC schools anyways.
I doubt the SEC will want to expand though, historically they like to keep it simple only lettings one or two teams leave and come.
Colorado has no business in the PAC10 – they needs to be in the MWC cause they are *edited*ties.

I read on ESPN that the Pac-10 is ready to offer invites to all 6 of those schools. Of course the only school that matters there is Texas. Texas will bolt if Nebraska leaves the Big 12.

ECU brings the ACC absolutely nothing. They already own that TV market with the triangle being so close by, ECU would be mid pack at best in football, and ECU doesn’t fit the ACC’s academic demographics.

Really the SEC doesn’t have much reason to expand; they already have a very lucrative TV deal and unless they can grab schools in a different region they don’t already own (NC State? Baylor? USF? Kansas?), it really makes no sense for them. I mean GA Tech, Florida State, and Clemson don’t get them much of anything as far as new TV markets go.
MajorMajorMajor said:

Colorado would be perfect for MWC if PAC10 took Baylor instead. I mean if MWC could grab up Kansas, K State, Iowa State, they would be a pretty decent conference after all is said and done.
Honestly though I think Notre Dame will join Big 10 and that will pretty much end all this; Pac 10 might expand to 12 by grabbing a couple MWC schools and MWC might grab some WAC schools to compensate. I’m still surprised that MWC didn’t invite Boise State though.

SpectatorNickname, the last thing texas would do would be to follow in the footsteps of Nebraska. Texas has way to much money and pride to follow someone to a different conference. Regardless, Texas a&m is going to have a say in all this, being that the last game texas plays for the rest of eternity will always be versus the aggies. Don’t believe me? Come ask anyone in Texas.
There is a texas/texas a&m meeting going on with the higher ups happening today to discuss what exactly will happen. Some say texas a&m are in talks with the SEC, and if that happens who knows where texas will go. SEC sucking up Texas would be madness.

um reread my post; texas leaving the big 12 (for big 10) would make texas devalue the big 12 and move to the pac 10. that means texas would NOT be following nebraska anywhere.
Also, Colorado to the Pac-10. That is one prediction come true.

Spectatorone time in 7th grade Science class, i was asked to read out loud a paragraph about volcanoes. I got to the word debris, pronounced it “Deh-BRIS”, and kept on reading. Everyone laughed. It took me a good 5 minutes to figure out why they were laughing, lol
