What strategy should the B1G use as we approach the 2 super conference era?

I see three major strategies the B1G can use going forward.

1. Only add teams that will increase a per school share. Not to many of them left, might just be Notre Dame that would increase the revenue share for everyone.

2. Keep the SEC contained. Add any school that would allow the SEC to access outside the SE. Would look to add an Arizona school to keep them out of Arizona, probably lock up the PNW and NorCal, Colorado, maybe even Kansas. Let the SEC have Texas East and the Mason-Dixon line South, while controlling the rest of the country. Maybe secure some northern ACC teams like Virginia and North Carolina.

3. Invade the SE. Try and get teams to join like Ga Tech, FSU, Baylor, TCU, Miami, Clemson. Gets schools in new big population areas, but goes head to head with the SEC.

Sure looks like major college football is headed to 2 superconferences. I wonder if the B1G would be open to talking to the SEC and coming to some sort of agreement going forward as they are obvious the only 2 players that matter. It will be interesting to see how it all shakes out.
