    Whoops. 4 threads.

    B12 expansion
    P12 expansion
    B1o expansion
    Ohio State

    No worries. It is all good. It really impacts everything.

      With USC joining the B1G ND might be more interested. The per team revenue for the B1G and SEC is getting crazy high. But ND still does very well as an independent.

        Maybe they can just get rid of the college football playoffs and just let the winners of the SEC and B1G play for the national championship.

              Lots of leftovers for the Big 12.

                    This makes sense. Put everyone on hold until ND makes a decision.

                      Exactly. But guaranteed if ND stays put Oregon and Washington bolt for and are accepted into the Big 10. And even if ND comes along the Big Ten might still grab Washington.

                        Not only wait on ND but it’s the SEC turn to make a move in this chess game. ND’s action could force the next move.

                              I’m channeling my inner AA here, but I don’t see B10 being hungry for Oregon. Don’t get time wrong, their athletics and connections with Nike are fantastic, but B10 presidents are typically snobbish in academics.

                              But that may not matter as much as $$$.

                                Oregon may be the best chip left on the Pac 12 table:
