8 conference games for football ( guaranteeing a true division champ ) and allowing teams to reengage in old school rivalries OOC.
In basketball you play everyone one time and each team gets a natural 3 team rivalry from within their own division each year to get to 20 league games.
Each division would have 3 traditional blue bloods, multiple other teams who have been relevant ( top 10-15 ) frequently over the last decade , some traditional 6-7 won type bowl teams and a few cellar dwellers .
It would be the best conference in football AND basketball by a wide margin
I thought that's what a message board is? LolThat's a ridiculous idea - for multiple reasons. First off, West Virginia doesn't have the academics to be a candidate for Big 10 inclusion. Not sure if Oklahoma does, either. Second, an 18-team conference would be too unwieldly.
Got any more pipe dreams?
I see no way in hell the Big 12 can come close to the B1G and SEC TV money. I could be totally wrong. JMOThe LA teams will be in the division with the TX/OK schools, not WVU.
The Big12 is going for the throat next tv contract, it has to to stay close to the BIG and SEC the PAC does too for that matter but again, the interest/commitment/money just isn't gonna be there. When the valuable schools merge with the Big12 it will be for some of them at least.
It would be a huge drop in coin. The only two national draws are G-O-N-E, gone.That’ll be a sad day for us dude. No lie
It would be a huge drop in coin. The only two national draws are G-O-N-E, gone.
The same could be said if the 2-3 national draws in every conference left their current one. There are only a handful of teams that can draw a national audience on a weekly basis.
I dont think they catch them, just get closER than both are as is. About the only shot they have imo.I see no way in hell the Big 12 can come close to the B1G and SEC TV money. I could be totally wrong. JMO
When it comes to dissing Texas, I'm like 13 years old.

Oh crap. Just what we need! A bunch of imposter Aggies! (You guys ain't a cult like the real Aggies in Bryan-College Station are ya?)You have about four more that have come over.
@CowpokeU , @Stake , @The.Waving.Wheat , me, and 1 more I think.
Merge and purge
PAC and Big 12.
Merge, then kick out the six schools wit the lowest average paid home attendance leaving a 16 team super-conference
