ChiefsPlanet - View Single Post - Other Sports Big 10 Report: Conference Realignment

I'm ready for A&M to shit already or get off the pot.

If the Big 12 is successful in convincing Notre Dame (very unlikely IMO) or BYU (probable?) to replace A&M as the 10th member, I think the Big 12 could stick around for a bit. If ND is the 10th member, then I think that completely turns the tables on conference expansion, and makes the Big 12 a net consolidator in the superconference process.

If the Big 12 has to add a team like SMU or Houston as its 10th member, then the conference is toast and every program will be working behind the scenes to get into a new conference.
