Well what do you know, looks like the Big Ten is going to change a tradition.

Well, I guess it's a start. Did you read the comments under that article? They were asking who should the Big 10 bring into the conference so they could have a CCG. I think WV came up a lot. Some were saying that the Big 10 was the best and that if ND doesn't come in then it should not be anybody. Why won't ND move into the Big 10? The money?

ND is a law unto themselves. The Big Ten would be better off to invite 3 teams, Pitt, WVU, and Rutgers like one guy suggested and have 14 teams.

Now even Dolfan is agreeing with me.

Yeah, but the Big 10 won't send the invite. If they did would those school accept? So you think it would be good to be in the Big 10 instead of the Big East?

I think the BCS should force all BCS conferences to have a championship game. If/when they do the Big 10 would be crazy if they didn't invite them. I think playing in the Big 10 would be a good thing for all 3 of the schools, but it would end what we now know as the BE with regards to football.

West Virginia, Pittsburgh, USF, Louisville, Rutgers, Connecticut, Syracuse, and Cincinnati are the BE football teams. That's only 8!

Losing Pitt, WVU, and Rutgers would make it five. USF and Cinncy could go back to C-USA. Uhh, hmm.. Syracuse and UConn could go to the ACC. And Louisville, well, I guess you need an even number so I don't know where they could go. :D

What are some possible scenerios just for the fun of it? :lol:
