Big 10 Report: Conference Realignment

A source in St. Louis familiar with the situation told NewsCenter 16 Thursday afternoon that Missouri will leave the Big XII and soon join the Big 10. Other schools expected to follow the Tigers are Syracuse, Pitt, Rutgers and Nebraska.

Many have speculated that such an expansion would include Notre Dame but ND athletic director Jack Swarbrick told me today that the Irish prefer to stay independent in football and in the Big East for other sports. Swarbrick said maintaining football Independence is such a part of what Notre Dame is.

He went on to say the Big East is a great partner for the University in other sports.

"We do have to monitor what is going on," Swarbrick said. "There will be significant shifts. "Hopefully we can navigate them by keeping our football independent and keeping our Big East affiliation because that is what we care about."

The move of Syracuse, Pitt and Rutgers to the Big Ten from the Big East could categorically change the landscape of the Big East itself. Thus, what Swarbrick is referring to when stating the University must continue to monitor what is going on.

The interview with Swarbrick was done before the late afternoon announcement.

With that said, I don't see what the big deal is that one team whose fans travel better might get the nod over one that doesn't. IMO NU fans have earned it.

Some people believe in merit based systems and some don't. I think the better team should be rewarded, and you don't. It is just a difference of opinion.

Imagine if NC would have been allowed in the big dance last season, and given a 3 seed to boot. I mean, they deserved it because of their great tradition and everything. Who cares that their team wasn't worthy of making the tournament?

If Mizzou was so much better, why did they lose to a KU team that NU beat?

Give me a ****ing break. We beat you at home by 35 points AND had a better record.

Maybe the official timekeeper in last year's championship game thought Texas traveled better than Nebraska. Is that okay with you?

Whoops, this statement is actually false as well, NU and MU both went 5-3 in conference in 2008. Maybe this isn't the thread for you beer bacon.

Regardless, we had the tiebreaker with the win in the head to head matchup and we had a better overall record.

Apparently getting beat by 35 points at home by a conference rival doesn't count in Nebraska.

DO OVER! DO OVER!

As I pointed out, conference records were the same. And as far as non-conference, did MU play any teams that went to BCS games?

Basically what you guys are saying is that MU should've got the bid simply because they beat NU to open conference play, nevermind the fact that MU stumbled at the end of the regular season while NU finished strong.

Fine, change it to Missouri finished ahead of Nebraska in conference play. It amounts to the same thing.

MU beat Nebraska in a blowout in Lincoln. finished with a better record, and finished ahead of Nebraska in conference. Are you disputing any of this?
