They wanted UT and didn't get them. They wanted OU and did not get them I almost guarantee they would love to have ND but wont get them They want UNC, but most likely wont get them if the ACC dissolves They want UVA (see above comment) There are many schools out there who would love to go to the SEC, but let's not kid ourselves there are big fish they want but most likely wont land. |

Right now, most rumors are speculating on the new wild card in the whole situation: PSU. Does the current controversy warrant an expulsion from the B1G? If it does, what does the B1G do to get back to 12, and how soon?
Some of the scenarios being floated: Missouri (SEC has no withdraw penalties, would Mizzou be that bold if offered?) Virginia Tech (are the academics up to snuff and would this be preferable to UVA at a possible later date)? Pitt/Syracuse (they just settled to get out of the BEAST) Rutgers (exit penalties to consider) Maryland (are they worthy enough) Also, would they sit at 12 again, or use this to expand quickly to 16?

Could the Big XII survive as an 8 team league if they lost, say, Tech and Iowa State?

I think the contract requires a ten team conference, so they would have to replace those schools quickly if it ever came to that.

That aside, would it be a viable conference in today's world? I feel like it could be a better with only eight teams if they were the right eight.

ISU would probably be the easiest to lose because of its location. TT would be really difficult to let go because of Texas politics. Obviously, if you have less mouths to feed, you get higher percentages of revenues, but I don't know that those programs detract that much to even really being a consideration.

PSU isn't going anywhere, and Mizzou wouldn't even answer the phone, anyway. That ship has sailed.
