Seems that Nebraska and Missouri are looking to get out of the Big 12 to go to the Big 10 (making the Big 10 another Big 12??????). Which opens the door for the Pac 10 who has been wanting to expand to pursue 6 teams mostly from the big 12 making them the Pac 16 (texas, Texas A&M, OK and Ok state, Tex Tech, and either Colorado or Baylor). I assume if this gets approved it will be a few years down the road. I also assume that it's about money. I did here one report that a benifit for the Pac 10/16 is that with Texas in the same Conference as USC (they didn't mention Oregon ) tht the pairing will help the west coast teams get better coverage on the east coast (the time difference kills the pac 10 for east coast viewing... it's hard to watch a non conference game that starts at 10 pm). Not sure how I feel about it, but two things really stick out at first;
First is hopfully it will bring the fans one step closer to a college football play off system and get rid of the dammmmmm BCS.
Second and on my mind the most is the my beloved Ducks will have to go up against my sweeties beloved Aggies on a bit of a regualr basis...... that won't be good no matter what happens. :shock:
Here's a link, any thoughts?
