Realignment Rumors Swirling

Notre Dame is the lynch pin in this round of dancing, for sure. I must admit, I don’t understand the Big 10 infatuation with Korn, but hey – to each his own. And if Korn and Mizzou are gone, then the Big XII is kaput. And the Big 10 REALLY wants to have meaningful football game in November.

Now, A&M can still upset the apple cart if the SEC decides to get proactive and expand their brand to try and stay #1. But y’all could always just go ahead and take Baylor in our place.

That video from Office Space is my favorite part.

Ag_in_TX: if you are trying to weasel a compliment or admission of need from us you’ll have better luck with your boyfriend.

You sure are on a Geto Boys kick. Have you been hanging out with Willie D at the Nickle Sandwich Shop?

Naw, I’m guessing it was an ‘Office Space’ bender.

Let’s go west! Afterall, California’s full of whiskey, women, and gold.

Toby Keith AND Willie D reference in the same comment, ftmfw.

Sounds like in that case the SEC would invite FSU and Miami. But even if you guys did somehow manage an SEC invite, it wouldn’t upset anything. Like you said, both Baylor and Colorado would go to the Pac-Whatever.

Poop.

Too bad. I was thinking if ND hit the bid and the conference stood pat that we had a potential nice little moneymaker in selling them the Big 12 moniker. We could even discount it if they’d be willing to take Dan Beebe and give him a job in their call center, or maybe HR.

We don’t like that motherfucker.

This was just an attempt to get a thread to hit 50+ posts today, wasn’t it?

OR … Big Televen’s Delaney is going to try and get ND, Texas, atm, korn, mo to form the Death Star Super Conference (attributed to Frank Teh Tank).

Remember, don’t think like a sportsfan!

why would the big 10 not want what will end up being a minnesota to wisco level school. For the big guys, the wins still give them street cred even though they will win 70% of the time. Northwestern and Illinois are just happy to be in the mix.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t sound like Big Red will never get their PQ’s again. I guess the increased revenue will be adequate compensation.

An acquaintance whose career path once led her through the innermost circle of Okie Lite recruiting, including perks such as private planes and the most credible inside information, said that at one time almost every one of OSU’s PQs were athletes, specifically football players.

Convenient tool.

@ java – If I’m not mistaken, the Big 10 doesn’t have any restrictions on admitting partial qualifiers. Other than moving out of UT’s shadow & influence, perhaps that’s THE reason for NU’s Big 10 love?
