No way Mizzou comes to the Big Ten....unless ND has already signed on the dotted line. Mizzou isn't the kind of school you add as #13...could be a #14, but I doubt that is even the case.

UNL gets the Big Ten a lot of exposure in St. Louis/Kansas City - adding Mizzou seems like a "meh" addition at best.

Let go of ND to the Big Ten. It isn't happening. We are actually number 14. Us and Misourah.

You people are crazy. You do realize the informal invite they had was contingent on the Big 12 collapsing?

Look how long it's taking A&M to leave. Missouri would face many of the same legal issues. They aren't going anywhere.

As I have posted several times in this thread, ND is never going to the Big 10 NEVER according to a couple ND insiders that DP interviewed last week. They are PAC property if they go anywhere they said as it will strengthen their national brand and increase their rivalry with USC.

I'm fine with Tier 3 staying with the school. It just makes sense. Why should we share Cyclone Radio Network with Baylor? Ridiculous.

Tier 3 encompases a whole lot of stuff. The conference could easily pool TV rights but still keep radio rights reserved for individual schools.

Why is it ridiculous for us to share tv if everyone is sharing. Your argument here is the only thing ridiculous.

Neinas saying 10 teams. For those who were blaming beebe for this conference's problems, i hope things like this show you he wasnt the problem. Keeping this 10 team, 9 conference game schedule is idiotic.

The B1G is moving to a 9 conference game slate...and they have 12. Having 12 teams no longer means having only 8 conference games.

Either way, 9 games is bad for the conference. Just means one more week of conference members beating up on each other (lower total wins, increased chance that less will qualify for bowls) instead of on other conferences.

A side thought: it might be better for the big 10 to be playing each other and get 5 wins and 5 losses, than to be playing the b12 or SEC and probably amassing a worse record.
