I'm not sure, but the KU football program is what is holding them back. Basketball is not that big of a deal to those conferences. I think Iowa State is in the worst situation, they might just end up in the MVC.

I paid attention to the ACC/Big East realignment a few years back and I don't live in the area. Buck is a pup though, he may have been in grade school when the Big XII was formed and probably didn't care.

Smart money says that these 3 teams include Iowa State. The question is who the other 2 teams will be.

I don't know why people assume it's Iowa State. Iowa is a more populous state than Kansas is. While I agree w/ you, I don't think it's that cut and dry.

Kansas State might be one of the teams left out. That would be pretty funny considering we've been to a BCS bowl, where the other 2 most certainly would not have been.

The Hawkeyes already dominate the state. ISU doesn't add a market. They don't add a large fanbase. They don't add good academics. They don't add good athletics. It seems pretty self-evident. They would be better off in the MWC or Conference USA.

There's not going to BE a BCS in 2013. Anyone who thinks that these power conferences are being created in order to let MORE schools in the club is delusional. There will be 4 power conferences with a total of 64 teams. The rest aren't in the club. It's as simple as that.

Want to bet?

If anything, there will be one 16 team conference, and I don't even feel 100% comfortable saying that.

I'm on the outside looking in. I think that this is such a big deal here especially because its pretty much affecting 99% of this boards user base, since most people here are fans of Big 12 or Big 10 teams (Iowa I guess).

Four sixteen team conferences sounds stupid to me honestly, but I guess we'll see.

Another post from a memphis board -

Quote:

I have a little more information on this! KU is not interested in joining a conference that has partial members, it must be 12, 14, 16 full time members. KU officials have / are going to meet with several Big East presidents. There is some interest in forming another conference featuring a merger of schools that remain in the Big 12, Big East schools, and several Conference USA schools in which there will be a western division and a eastern division. I found this information about the possible line up:

West
KU
KSU
Baylor
Iowa State
Houston
Mizzou
Memphis
South Florida

East
WVU
Cinci
Louisville
UConn
Pitt
East Carolina
Syracuse / Rutgers / Central Florida / Temple

Each division leader would get their own BCS spot. The value of the TV network revenues is still under evaluation as there would be a network in each state where a school is present.

HerculesRockefell 06-10-2010 07:48 PM

Even though it was 20-30 pages ago, apparently CU and Texas were the only 2 Big XII teams that were for sure going to get Pac 10 invites.

Hmmm. Take these 4 power conferences, tell the NCAA to get stuffed and go out on their own. Pay players some amount of compensation and do their own championship elimination bracket for even more $$$.

It makes a lot of sense to me. You would have 2 divisions in each conference. The winner of each division would play a conference championship game to whittle it down to 4 teams who play for the title. The Big (10) winner plays the Pac (10) champ in the Rose Bowl, the SEC champ plays the ACC champ in the Orange Bowl, and the winners of those games play each other in the Sugar Bowl for the NC.

It would be incredible. Then, you wouldn't have to waste your time during the regular season by watching a bunch of terrible non-conference matchups. You could eliminate the I-AA garbage games and allow teams to play 2 games maximum against teams from outside the power conferences.

It doesn't seem like the SEC wants to expand. Even though they are southern cousin fuckers they have this dbag attitude in football that they are better than everybody else, and they already make a ton of money per school. I don't know how intent they are of adding anybody unless it would be to the west - IE Texas, Texas A&M, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State. I would think if the SEC could do that and go to a 16 team conference that would be what they would do. I know if I was the head of the SEC I'd try to get everybody on board w/ that right now.

I don't think they really see any teams from the Big East and ACC as great football schools they want to pick up. At least I wouldn't if I was in their perspective. If I was the SEC commissioner right now, I'd just offer to those four and call it good.

That part is pretty much a given. There are already 8 schools who don't have football. If you want to get a little crazy, I could see a basketball only conference forming:

Givens:
Marquette
Seton Hall
Saint Johns
Villanova
Georgetown
UCONN
Depaul
Providence

Possible:
Memphis
UMASS
Temple
Xavier

Longshots:
Duke
Kansas
Wake Forest
North Carolina


That would give them 16 teams. Obviously it's a little crazy to think that some of those teams might give up football, but it would be interesting.
