I agree, and if I recall, ND just signed an extension with Stanford for many years. This gets ND everything they want in their need to be seen as a "national university". They could be in a conference with all the benefits of that, a conference that rotates its regions in the SE (including the state of Florida), the SW (the state of Texas), the midwest (game with OU) and the NE (providing link to the large Catholic populations of the upper northeast states, preserves some traditional rivals like G Tech and Pitt, keeps them on the west coast with USC and Stanford as two of their OOCGs, and leaves two spots open for service academies and B!G opponents on a roatating basis.
