Big 10 adding FSU?
- Thread starter HBK4life
- Start date
Well FSU has been vocal about leaving the ACC for a long time now. BUT the ACC media rights poison pill has prevented them from doing so. I don't see that anything has changed on that front unless they can bust up the ACC like what happened to the PAC.
it would be a killer move if the BIG could convince nw to join the ivy then replace them with nd...
then add 5 acc schools....nc, clemson, fsu, smu and miami...
then add houston...
that would be 24 teams from ny to la and washington to miami, with a definite recruiting footprint better then the rust belt.
hey it's the offseason...

True or not, I figured that story would come out right after they missed the playoff. My guess is more truth than not.
I mean by the time its all over, there wont be any reason to poop on the BIG anymore. It'll just be all the teams in the BIG.
Why? FSU AND Notre Dame are the way to wrap it up
Can’t wait for a 64 team conference with 8 , 8 team divisions. Every team will end up coming full circle playing regional opponents.
The financial situation is an obstacle to that vision. The B1G and SEC schools are unlikely to want to give up their huge current financial advantage over all the other schools.
Yep. Big 20.
Big Ten Division
All those old boring teams who will no longer have to play anyone but themselves (and Iowa State).
National Ten Division
FSU, Rutgers, Maryland, Penn State, Notre Dame, Nebraska, Washington, Oregon, USC, UCLA.
No crossovers, just a title game after a division round-robin. Then settle in for the playoffs.
You’re right. But it’s pretty ridiculous what 10 teams in each of those conferences will have fan bases that expect to win 10 games a year.
Houston will also never be in the Big Ten, but he'll still repeat that fantasy another 1,000 times.
Not happening. FSU is not a member of the AAU.
At least UN was when they were admitted. I'm surprised the Big Ten didn't give Nebraska the boot when the AAU did.

i think folks are past the AAU thing now. 10 years ago...it mattered. today, not so much.
edit: i say that based only on my opinion which is negatively biased towards AAU. looking at facts, the new B1G with 4 west coast teams, 17 of the 18 are AAU members. maybe it does matter.
but---if Alabama/Georgia wanted to jump conferences to B1G, would B1G shun them because of no AAU? I dont think so.

AAU....is that an acronym for enabling pedophiles and other sexual deviancies?
come on now. a few bad people did bad things, at a few schools of the many that are AAU.
i dont like the AAU status, has a stench of elitism and class division...but lets not associate everyone with a few really bad people.
Adding FSU and Clemson is good for both sides. More exposure and recruiting inroads in the SE for us.
Other than FSU being mad about the playoff snub, has anything changed in the past year? They were ranting and raving a year ago but were stuck contractually in the ACC as was Clemson.
Te willingness to just eat the contract money if necessary grows. It's possible the ACC will just fold and the institutions will agree to nullify the contract. ESPN is party to the contract and could see far more $$$ working with an expanded Big 10 and SEC.
It matters if you're trying to get into the Big Ten.
Rutgers, Maryland, UCLA, USC, Oregon and Washington - all AAU members.
At least Nebraska is trying to get back into the AAU - according to former Chancelor Ted Carter.
As I recall it was Michigan that was the key vote to kick us out of the AAU. And the powers that be refused to recognize the Omaha medical research as part of the University system.
It's just a matter of time before there are 2 super conferences and the rest. The PAC is all but dead and the ACC and Big 12 are headed that way
false. it will be three. the b12 will add pitt, nc state, louisville, and the like. three 20-team or more super conferences all buying players in an nfl light model and acting otherwise.
Add all they want but it's about the huge TV markets-MONEY and why is that so hard for some to understand. The B!G will control 53% of all CF TV markets in 2024 - by itself - NYC, Los Angelas, Chicago, Seattle, Philly, D,C,. Baltimore, Cleveland, Cincy, Columbus, Detroit, Indianapolis and on and on. I know I'm missing a few
The Big 12 can add all they want but if no one is watching........ TOAST. It's not that hard. Where do you think that $90 to 100 million B1G payout to each team in 2024 and 2025 is coming from?
that's absolute bullshit. last year's tcu/k-state b12 championship vastly outdrew this year's with texas. it also outdrew all the other conference championships on a look in basis. it's about the quality of game as well as the schools at play.
Your mindset is what is wrong with the morally corrupt BIG. You say you surprised NU didn't get the boot because of AAU. Although NU is one of the very few universities that is NOT affiliated with Pedophilia, sexual related scandals, racism, or hazing scandals or cheating in the BIG. How much has Iowa paid out for racist lawsuits? It's a cesspool in the BIG.
TV markets as a whole......including during the regular season. It's not that complicated. Again, 53% control by one conference. You're using one example. DUH?
No matter how loud you scream it, the Big 12 will be nothing more than a glorified G5 league from here on out.

Yup, that's it... all of those "old boring teams" continue to beat Nebraska's ass on a regular basis.
Why Heavens to Murgatroyd!!! Why must the foul Philistines on this board be so testy and contentious???
Did I do that right, Miss Manners?
I need some North Carolina teams to join the big ten so I can see the Huskers play live!
It didn’t even outdraw Mich-Purdue despite the bigten game being in the same time slot as another P5 conf championship game
Frustrating, no doubt. This year's team, however, was able to break even with the "old boring teams" in the West this year (3-3). Beats 1-5 each of the past two seasons and 1-4 in 2020.
maybe we could start playing teams like Kstate, mizzery, the Oklahomas and Colorado? Il admit, I miss the old days and the hatred of mizzery and CU, a lot would change if we ever start winning again but I just don’t get up for Illinois and the purdues of the B10
