USC and Oregon To B1G rumor....

Both AAU schools, makes sense at some level. Think you have to bring 4 so you can do pods and they play a lot within their own pod. Not sure how true this is now, but this will happen no later than 2030. With the B1G and the SEC in the 110-120 million per year range, and the other three conferences in the 55 million range, those that can provide value will move - USC, Oregon, Stanford, UCLA, UNC, Clemson ... others.

Not sure it's a good thing, but CFB is going to be different in next 10 years. Seatbelt on.
 
Seeing that we went into the Horsehoe and beat Ohio State? Given that we beat Michigan the last time we played them and we simply don't lose to Wisconsin. Yes please, let's go.
 
This won't happen because once talks begin Ohio State will throw a fit and the B1G will never upset their prized program
 
Doubt it. I don't see the point in taking only those two. They would take UCLA, Stanford, Cal, and Washington too.

No chance. Unless they are only in the B1G by name and have their own pod of West Coast teams they play every year. The travel would be ridiculous on the student/athletes to have to fly across the country to a time zone with a 3 hour difference to play a conference game. Imagine being USC or Oregon and having to do it 4 times every year.

It sounds good, but it isn't happening. If the B1G adds anybody - it will likely be from the ACC. USC, Oregon, etc. would have to join what is left of the Big 12 or have the Big 12 join the PAC.
 
Travel across country for Saturday football games would be easy enough. Get on a plane Friday and kick back; play your game and then come home Saturday evening. It's not like you're on a train for days. However, what kills the USC/Oregon rumor about going to the Big Ten is travel in other sports that would be on all days of the week. And a lot of those sports are stone losers financially before figuring in higher travel costs. Nope. Not gonna happen.
 
Going to be a lot of player deaths and carnage for the guys having to travel 2-3 time zones away to play a noon game, which back home would be 9am. Isn't that right @ralphiewvu. Those 9am's are dangerous.

RIP to all the future dead players.

Only fag teams join the B1G, but being a PAC team pretty well means you’re a duck for every B1G school since the B1G says jump and the PAC asks how high. Two truly pathetic conferences
 
Not going to happen.

Guaranteed.

This. While not ideal, the football travel for West Virginia in the Big 12 has been a lot less onerous than it has been for the other sports.

Ever think we'll have "Football only" conferences? That's where the idea of "super conferences" belongs IMHO.

Another option would be for football to be independents and play in more regionalized conferences for the other sports.
