No, The B10 needs to add 2 more teams from the B12. Delany needs to take care of this issue himself. Texas and Oklahoma come on down.
Hell no, no disrespect but your conference sucks

Even if we wanted this, OU will/can not jettison Okie St, and I doubt the Texas legislature will let us leave without TT and/or Baylor. Sucks.
It's because it would be a defacto 8 team playoff. The 8 division winners competing in the conference title games. The 4 conference champs in the CFP.
Bowlsby just said we are going to strongly consider two more institutions.
Big12 gonna be big12 again
Nice....it's about time.
Mamba, is there a link to his statements?
Just blow the Big 12 up. The football is pretty solid, but long term this conference is dead

Statement?
wow. What a pety little man. Here was my response:
Funny. Big 12 looks likely to be in, especially after OSU lost Barrett. Outside of a blowout, I don't see OSU getting in. Big 12 is the only conference that has a shot at getting 2 teams in, but you think they are in the worst spot. Interesting take
The unlikely blowout happened. Sometimes longshots payoff
I laid out exactly what and why and predicted no Big 12 team in the playoff.
Pretty funny, I said worst case scenario and you go ballistic on it, but me not acknowledging your statement on blowout means I am petty.
Just admit you looked foolish.
I think it would be a stupid move at this point to expand. If there were a couple of ideal non P5 candidates out there then okay, but that's not the case. We would just end up with "meh" additions for the sake of going to 12. That would dilute the product and the schedules even more, and that's something we should be avoiding. You thought the old Big12 north was weak? Picture it with some of the other candidates out there.
Rather than expanding the conference, let's add another OOC and mandate it to be a P5 opponent. Boom. Everyone in the conference gets to 13 games and strengthens the overall SOS.
disagree youre not watering down the conference your beefing up the schedules with technically more P5 schools. if baylor had cincy on the schedule this year the cfp committee has less argument than buffalo. bamas win over kentucky count more than any orfinary ooc opponent would...hell this has been the exact anti-secers argument for years.
also think big12 would have to think outside the box in regards to divisions. simple east/west or north/south is not the answer.
