Right, but they have more traditional rivalries than only the three I listed.

I keep asking this and no one has an answer - Why?

They have a perfect set-up now. How does that change if there are 12 team conferences, 16 team conferences, or 100 team conferences?

Obviously there would have to be a financial incentive. If they could double-down on their own TV contract plus Big XII revenue, that would be a benefit. Alternatively, they might have to make a move if they're squeezed by the BCS to join a conference to be an automatic qualifier.

Otherwise, you're right; it would be pointless for ND to change anything.

Heh thats why Texas A&M is leaving, Colorado left, and about 4 other schools looked into leaving last year.

The only schools that left were ones that got routinely embarrassed on the football field and the bball court, lets be real.

That being said Colorado won the skiing national title in 2011 and Nebraska won the Bowling national title in 2009 so I guess it wasn't all that bad for those two schools.

ATM informed B12 that they're exploring options. They're peacing out for real.

1. wrong
2. quit mentioning bball as if it has anything to do with a school's conference decision making process

They both would the competitive level for football and basketball. They aren't a terrible fit geographically either.

Arkansas could step in a replace Texas A&M in the south as well. They would actually broaden the market for the Big 12 south since A&M and UT overlaps a little.

There is simply no chance ND joins the B12 the way its structured.

Negative chance.

There is a better chance Blue Springs High School joins the Big 12.

CU and NU both hold national championships in football. NU is a storied program. Next time you are 'making some calls' to get yourself back in the green you can ask somebody.
