McCall Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 GabeDeArmond and Dave_Matter are the Missouri guys and GSwaim is a Big XII guy. Then they often retweet other guys who follow closely though I haven't personally followed them since I end up seeing them anyway.And evidently there's some talks of Notre Dame joining the Big XII for everything but football. Doesn't seem of high likelihood, probably just ND looking for a way out of the Big East. Quote https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCall Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 You have to realize that ESPN doesn't want Missouri to leave the Big XII, so of course they're going to report on all the positive things that happen between the Big XII and Missouri. They left a lot out about what happened at the meeting yesterday and reported on what seemed like Missouri was staying. As I've said before, I have a source that comes from Big XII country as well and I've been hearing very similar things as McCall. When it's all said and done, I'll be completely surprised if Mizzou isn't sitting in the SEC.Dude, what the hell are we gonna do when this is all over?

Cujo Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 With West Virginia and TCU joining the Big XII, the Big East MUST be stripped of their automatic BCS bid. As of now, that conference is no better than the WAC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

logodawg Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I'm just waiting for when these schools realize being in these 14-16 team "superconferences" isn't all it's cracked up to be and start looking for greener pastures.

That could be what these conferences are reluctant about. It seems the 12-14 range is a for-sure increase in revenue from TV, marketing, bowls, etc. However, the jump from 14-15/16 may not be as certain as the jump from 12-14.

Chicageaux Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Just in case no one's heard, Missouri and SEC Officials are meeting right now in Birmingham to discuss Missouri's move. The hope is that they can announce Missouri as the 14th team this week, especially before the game against Texas A&M on Saturday. That all being said, Missouri isn't expected to join the SEC until the 2013 school year, however I'm sure that can change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
