Damn, Big Ten took too long. And I completely forgot about this thread. :D Become accustomed to using the General NCAA thread. So now, who does the Big Ten go after? Assuming WVU also enters the SEC, who do they go after for #16?

Smart play by the SEC with Mizzou. WV I still do not get but this was smart getting the KC/St Louis market. I really thought the Big Teeeeeeen+ would have been a better fit but looks like they are just sitting back.

No way anyone leaves the ACC for another conference. They'd have to pay $20 million to leave. That's not happening.Quote:

Big East officials are meeting tonight in New York for something. Not sure what yet.
Fake Don Beebe is on twitter and it's hilarious, especially since OU has demanded he be fired and blames him for losing Nebraska and A&M.
It's alright mors. It may not be the SEC, but there's nothing wrong with the Big Ten. :DQuote:

Oklahoma/Oklahoma State to the SEC now? It sounds like the only way Oklahoma is going to stay in the Big 12 is if some MAJOR changes are made regarding Texas, the Longhorn Network, Dan Beebe, etc.
And according to ESPN, the SEC and Missouri informally have an agreement. So that makes Missouri and A&M. If Texas/Beebe don't agree to any changes or work with Oklahoma on their issues with the league as it stands now, I could see Oklahoma/State bolting for the SEC since the Pac-12 doesn't want them right now.
Report: Missouri, SEC Have Deal
Quote:
The University of Missouri is reportedly headed to the SEC after all.
The SEC has informally agreed to add Missouri to the conference and move Auburn to the SEC East, according to a report in the Birmingham News.
The News, citing two sources familiar with the discussions, said a majority of SEC presidents have endorsed the agreement, though a timetable for the move remains unknown. Missouri would become the conference's 14th member, as the SEC already plans to add Texas A&M as the 13th member.
Earlier Tuesday, the Kansas City Star reported that the SEC was going to offer Missouri a spot in the conference, and would wait until the Big 12 dust settled for an answer. The Star cited a Mizzou booster who spoke directly to a school official. Another source told The Star on Tuesday that an Oklahoma official had said the SEC is interested in Missouri, the Star reported.
But the SEC said Tuesday afternoon that the only invitation it had issued was to Texas A&M.
The Oklahoman, citing a high-ranking Big 12 official, reported Oklahoma president David Boren said Monday the school would decide between applying for the Pac-12 or staying in the Big 12. The source stressed that reforms would be necessary for Oklahoma to remain in the Big 12.
The Pac-12 conference affirmed their decision late Tuesday night against expanding from their 12-team alignment, leaving open the possibility of the Big 12 staying together.
The University of Oklahoma's board of regents and its counterpart at Texas granted their school presidents Monday the authority to take action regarding conference realignment.
Leave it to Texas to screw things up because they're so damn greedy :DQuote:

Motherfucker, I hate college football. It's a fuckin' atrocity.
Yeah, leave it to Texas and their stupid Longhorn network. They are greedy and that is why we call them T-sippers.
What to do what to do.. I still say if we would have grabbed TCU and Houston back when he could. 12 team league, conference championship. Just move OU and OSU to the South and voila, you had a solid conference (this was back before Aggies jumped ship of course).
And OU is asking for a handout in the form of a percentage of the (I'll agree, "stupid") LHN's revenue. Which is why they call you Mobilehoma. ;)

We tried the Sooner Network but nobody could figure out how to get the satellite up and working. :P
