  1. I said similar & got blamed for mushroom breath..? Haha, no this seems logical… Ironically, at two conferences of 24, we may see regional divisions once again..?
  2. Well mushrooms on an old pizza, but r am I just “Nostradumass” (joke)… ACC buyout, at $165 million & dropping annually, anything can happen… I look for SEC to add North Carolina/ NC State/ Clemson/ Florida State… And B1G adds Miami/ Georgia Tech & both leagues reach 20 by 2026… This could happen in time for new CFP expansion to 16 team bracket… XII might possibly lose a team or two by 2031 as SEC & B1G go to 24… Then between the 2 leagues both play a 9 game conference slate eh..? As well as 1 (or 2) annual cross-division non-conference games also…
  3. SEC East: Virginia Cavaliers North Carolina Tar Heels NC State Wolfpack South Carolina Gamecocks Clemson Tigers Georgia Bulldogs Florida Gators Florida State Seminoles SEC Central: Kentucky Wildcats Tennessee Volunteers Vanderbilt Commodores Alabama Crimson Tide Auburn Tigers Ole Miss Rebels Mississippi State Bulldogs LSU Tigers SEC West: Texas Longhorns Texas A&M Aggies Oklahoma Sooners Arkansas Razorbacks Missouri Tigers Kansas Jayhawks Colorado Buffaloes Arizona State Sun Devils
  4. If I was commissioner of CFP & realignment for a day, I would: Expand both SEC/ B1G to 24 members split into pods of three... 11 game in conference slate (& 1 crossover game vs SEC/ B1G)... Expand CFP to 16 teams, keep home games & tie in top bowls... B1G East: Northwestern Wildcats Notre Dame Fightin' Irish Purdue Boilermakers Penn State Nittany Lions Rutgers Scarlet Knights Maryland Terripens Duke Blue Devils Miami Hurricanes B1G Central: Iowa Hawkeyes Minnesota Golden Gophers Wisconsin Badgers Illinois Fighting Illini Indiana Hoosiers Michigan Wolverines Michigan State Spartans Ohio State Buckeyes B1G West: Washington Huskies Oregon Ducks Stanford Cardinal UCLA Bruins USC Trojans Arizona Wildcats Utah Utes Nebraska Cornhuskers ACC/ XII/ PAC backfill 16 members each & hold own CFP also... Season start week of Labor Day for all teams, end in January... NCAA March Madness stays at 68 team tournament in March...
  5. I think B1G needs Clemson & 1 team in Florida, along with Georgia Tech/ Duke +Notre Dame and probably Stanford to seal Irish... If B1G is locked out of Texas/ southeast, well B1G will likely be lucky to win 2 titles per decade, long term there needs balancing...
  6. #MakeSECGreatAgain.?!
  7. Yeah I think even if Oklahoma & Texas along with 4 best buds had left for PAC in 2010, Sooners & Longhorns would still be in SEC by 2025.?? The same outcome at that point would lay in path of USC & UCLA to B1G, I surmise all 4 would see the higher $ of "super 2 recently & bolt... On a side note I do think that there is a chance by 2030 where SEC/ B1G absorb top brands of ACC/ PAC while XII absorbs top brands left... SEC in four pods of 6 members each: pod #1 Alabama/ Auburn/ Florida/ Florida State/ Georgia/ South Carolina pod #2 Kentucky/ Virginia/ North Carolina/ NC State/ Tennessee/ Vanderbilt pod #3 Ole Miss/ Mississippi State/ LSU/ Arkansas/ Missouri/ Kansas pod #4 Texas/ Texas A&M/ Oklahoma/ Colorado/ Arizona/ Arizona State B1G in four pods of 6 members each: pod #1 Penn State/ Rutgers/ Maryland/ Duke/ Georgia Tech/ Miami pod #2 Michigan/ Michigan State/ Ohio State/ Notre Dame/ Purdue/ Indiana pod #3 Illinois/ Northwestern/ Wisconsin/ Minnesota/ Iowa/ Nebraska pod #4 Utah/ California/ USC/ UCLA/ Oregon/ Washington XXIV in four pods of 6 members each: pod #1 Boston College/ Syracuse/ Pittsburgh/ West Virgina/ Cincinatti/ Virginia Tech/ Wake Forest pod #2 Clemson / UCF/ Memphis/ Louisville/ Iowa State pod #3 Kansas State/ Oklahoma State/ Baylor/ TCU/ Houston / Texas Tech pod #4 BYU/ UNLV/ San Diego State/ Fresno State/ Oregon State/ Washington State
  8. Welp sounds like there are others that think in the future (maybe 2030's) B1G &/ or SEC may look at brands like Utah[& maybe / Arizona/ Arizona State/ Colorado]: Oddly enough, in last 5 years Utes & Sun Devils have better football stadium attendance than does Virginia/ North Carolina/ Georgia Tech who SEC/ B1G may eye...
  9. Meh, I'll wait until Oklahoma is playing in a real conference next season to rep & tailgate new spots, besides the Utes are better anywho...
  10. Well, it's fan fiction based on what I would like to happen the probability is minimal, but "possible" anything can change in 12 years time... Just same as the #PXC I used to post on & on about, only thing is OU/ UT went 1 way, USC/ UCLA another, but movement was possible... An athletic director years ago joked there will be 2 superconferences 1 called ESPN the other called FOX, can 24 or 32 happen..? maybe...
  11. Two random tweets from folks that (may) have a finger on the pulse of ongoing in PAC & ACC respectively: A mock-up of prospective 24-team SEC with four permanent rivals for all teams vs other 20 foes in 4 years: SEC West: 4 permanent rivals & compete vs 5 SEC foes per season/ 3 out-of-conference games: 12 total... Arizona- Arizona State/ Kansas/ LSU/ Mississippi State Arizona State- Arizona/ Colorado/ Texas A&M/ Ole Miss Colorado- Arizona State/ Oklahoma/ Texas/ Missouri Kansas- Missouri/ Oklahoma/ Arizona/ Mississippi State Missouri- Kansas/ Colorado/ Arkansas/ Mississippi State Oklahoma- Colorado/ Kansas/ Missouri/ Texas Arkansas- Texas/ Texas A&M/ LSU/ Ole Miss Texas- Colorado/ Oklahoma/ Texas A&M/ Arkansas Texas A&M- Texas/ LSU/ Arkansas/ Arizona State LSU- Texas A&M/ Arkansas/ Ole Miss/ Arizona Ole Miss- Mississippi State/ LSU/ Arkansas/ Arizona State Mississippi State- Ole Miss/ Missouri/ Kansas/ Arizona SEC East: 4 permanent rivals & compete vs 5 SEC foes per season/ 3 out-of-conference games: 12 total... Alabama- Auburn/ Tennessee/ Florida/ Vanderbilt Auburn- Alabama/ Georgia/ South Carolina/ NC State Florida- Florida State/ Georgia/ Tennessee/ Alabama Florida State- Florida/ North Carolina/ Virginia/ Vanderbilt Georgia- Florida/ Auburn/ South Carolina/ NC State South Carolina- North Carolina/ Georgia/ Auburn/ Kentucky Tennessee- Vanderbilt/ Alabama/ Kentucky/ Florida Vanderbilt- Tennessee/ Kentucky/ Alabama/ Florida State Kentucky- Tennessee/ Vanderbilt/ Virginia/ South Carolina Virginia- North Carolina/ Kentucky/ NC State/ Florida State North Carolina- NC State/ Virginia/ Florida State/ South Carolina NC State- North Carolina/ Virginia/ Georgia/ Auburn Currently it seems B1G is dealing with a bit of headache from the 3-6-6 model as well, may be easier by 2030s..?
  12. Welp, don’t punish Disney/ ESPN (as the Mouse owns Simpson’s house now)… As far as expansion for B1G/ SEC I could see both going to 24 & a 3rd league… Current/ future B1G 16+ Washington-Oregon-Stanford & Notre Dame-Va Tech-Duke-Ga Tech-Miami Current/ future SEC 16+ Virginia-N Carolina-NC State-Florida St-Kansas-Colorado-Arizona-Arizona St Some amalgamation of PAC/ XII/ ACC/ AAC will remain at about half of the P2… Playoffs eventually expand to 32 & maybe NCAA hoops tourney is folded in eh..?
  13. What I would (now) like to eventually see is an SEC expanded to compete with B1G… It seems that B1G may look to add #17 Notre Dame, then #18 Stanford/ #19 Oregon/ #20 Washington & swing for a fractured ACC taking (I guess) #21 Virginia/ #22 Duke/ #23 Georgia Tech/ #24 Miami… That makes B1G a national conference while SEC is “regional”… It would be a good idea if SEC countered with: #17 Virginia Tech/ #18 North Carolina/ #19 NC State/ #20 Clemson/ #21 Florida State… Then expand the footprint with 3 solid brands: #22 Kansas/ #23 Colorado/ #24 Arizona State… This gives content in 3 time zones of east/ central/ mountain & covers a swath from DC/ Atlanta/ Orlando/ Nashville/ St Louis/ Kansas City/ Oklahoma City/ Dallas/ Austin/ San Antonio/ Houston/ Denver/ Phoenix… It also keeps both OU & UT with a “toe hold” in the market of California by proxy of PHX & DEN markets… and allows a few old “filler games” but with quality brand names… Here is a prospective Saturday lineup in a 24 team SEC (with 3 MTZ schools):Auburn vs North Carolina 11:00am ESPNOklahoma vs Georgia 2:30pm ABCColorado vs LSU 3:30pm SECNTexas vs Florida 6:00pm ABCFlorida State vs Alabama 6:00pm ESPNClemson vs Texas A&M 6:00pm ESPN2Kentucky vs South Carolina 6:00pm SECNTennessee vs Arkansas 9:00pm ESPNNC State vs Kansas 9:00pm SECNOle Miss vs Arizona State 10:00pm ESPN2bye week for 4 SEC brands, but 10 games in ETZ/ CTZ/ MTZ with a late game…#SECAfterDark could be solid recruiter for capturing west coast athletes from ‘Cali…
  14. What Big8 & SWC should have done is dissolved & reformed (in 1990): Texas Texas A&M Arkansas Oklahoma Missouri Iowa State Nebraska Kansas Colorado BYU Pick 2 brands to tag along in Texas Tech/ Oklahoma State ect (my choice, those 2)
  15. I still post mostly on the Sooner site… I’m fine since OU & UT are staying linked… USC & UCLA made the wisest choice available at the disposal as OU/ UT bolts… I do have to admit I worry about Arizona State long term as PAC may be ‘shaky’… B1G- Miami Georgia Tech Duke Virginia Notre Dame Maryland Rutgers Penn State Ohio State Michigan Michigan State Indiana Purdue Illinois Northwestern Wisconsin Minnesota Iowa Nebraska USC UCLA Stanford Oregon Washington SEC- Virginia Tech North Carolina Clemson Florida State Florida Georgia South Carolina Kentucky Tennessee Vanderbilt Alabama Auburn Ole Miss Mississippi State LSU Texas Texas A&M Oklahoma Arkansas Missouri Kansas Colorado Arizona Arizona State That’s the list I’ve been selling long term for both SEC & B1G (for 2036ish or so)…
  16. To me it would seem a good idea to place the best brands in 1 league… Washington Oregon California Stanford *San Diego State *UNLV Arizona Arizona State Utah Colorado Iowa State Kansas Oklahoma State Texas Tech TCU *Houston In doing so it leaves room to regain part of Los Angeles tv market eh..?
  17. But I get your joke, 55-20 says differently... Tiger/ Hog/ Sooner & 'Horn in same quad... I messed that up somehow on the upload: Texas-Texas A&M, one of the nations' historic whoop ass "rivalries"... Oklahoma-Tennessee, both schools had Josh Heupel, at one point... Arkansas-South Carolina, the original add-ons that gave SEC CCG... Miss St.-Bama, it's an ol' game that means more to Cowbell for win..? Ole Miss-Vandy, same as the sentence above I don't know much on... Auburn-Georgia, I know this is a heated old school tilt with ol' class... Kentucky-Mizzou, welp they aren't in the same division so it works..? Florida-LSU, this is a pretty solid game the last few decades lately...
  18. Texas- Texas A&MOklahoma-Tennessee Arkansas-LSU Miss St.-Bama Ole Miss-Vandy Auburn-Georgia -Kentucky Mizzou-South Carolina Florida-
  19. Could this have been put in place to keep Mizzou from 'overtures' of leaping to B1G with Kansas..? A Tiger/ Jayhawk pairing and Border War in regaining rivalry with Nebraska would be interesting...
  20. Well there is plenty of logic in your thesis, I think a majority of us Sooner fans feel like the kid on the trike right now, when reality ask what are we waitin' for:
