Nebraska to Big 10!

Of course certain options are better than others, but that doesn't change my feelings on the situation as a whole.
only if we can get that many wins and only if it still matters even if we do. if the big 4 conferences lock out everyone else it won't even matter.
Of course we could be a dominate force in a mid-major conference RIGHT NOW.
Then, let's see what happens to recruiting in 4 years.

Ever looked at the admissions requirements of BSU? Or maybe their performance in sports other than football?
Chip Brown from OrangeBloods on ESPN right now saying Texas met together and they are saying "The Big 12 is dead" and that the 6 teams from the South will be joining the PAC-10 (including Colorado). Saying Texas said "They tried to save the Big 12 but they were unsuccessful"
Although this guy appears to be vomiting from the mouth on live TV- this is BIG stuff. Said this is all going down and will occur in 2012.
Holy crap

I mean recently. I know we've split with UNLV over the last couple years, we lost last time to TCU. I realize BSU isn't MWC, but a potential add ... Lost.
We'll see with Utah and I guess Air Force.
Who am I missing. We've beat Wyoming in the not too distant past.
BTW - this could really make our non-conference schedule interesting, couldn't it. In a year or two, a few of the teams on the slate might be conference foes.
Edit: We're 2-2 versus the MWC since 2000.

Wait so all 6 south teams plus Colorado? We need to pray Mizzou stays put or the Buy-Outs are voted out. We need 4 teams to stay to get paid.
Alright. So should this be right then:
-Sounds like Mizzou is SOL
-Notre Dame said, "No, thanks" or "We're waiting"
So it looks like a couple of things should shake out:
-PAC-10 will officially invite BU, UT, TT, aTm, OU and OSU
-This leaves CU, KSU, KU, Mizzou and ISU
The next big question is does the Big Ten, the SEC, or ACC respond to this by moving to 16? I would hope that the SEC would strike first:
-SEC pulling 4 from the ACC
-ACC responds by scooping up the 8 football schools of the Big East
Should that happen, Notre Dame's hand is likely forced:
-ND and Mizzou to the Big Ten
-CU to the MWC
That leaves the Lonesome Three: Iowa State, KU, and K-State:
-I think we're going to see just how "tied" K-State is to KU
-If KU can be freed of K-State (and from what I understand, it's not so much a legislative thing, but a tradition thing) then I can see Iowa State and K-State to the Big Ten and K-State and Boise St. to the MWC
-If not, then I'd look for Iowa State, KU, and K-State to join CU in the MWC.
That leaves a big question mark over Boise St. Does the MWC go for Boise, a football school and not much else, or Iowa State who isn't necessarily that condusive to MWC "footprint." It will be interesting to see how things play out. Could be a wild ride.
For I! For S! Forever!

Doesn't the NE board of Regents have to approve the move yet? It sure sounded like that in the one ESPN article where the regent was interviewed. Could they be kidnapped and substituted with body doubles?
Goddammit, we already jumped off the cliff, how are we supposed to get back up there?
IF true then college football isn't run by big schools any more or even conferences. It is run by corporate america and TV. These conferences are TV conferences...nothing more and nothing less. It isn't about tradition or proximity or student athlete experience. College $port$. F it.
