An executive at a Big 12 school relayed to The Omaha World-Herald on Tuesday that he expects Nebraska to become a member of the Big Ten — as early as Friday.

Algernon Brown : The offensive brain trust at BYU likes to play running backs that are 210+ pounds and that are adept at not only running the football, but at pass-blocking, lead-blocking and catching the football. Brown appears to fit this mold...

It’s all about the BYU Cougars this week on The Mtn.Sports Network. All day, every day this week The Mtn. will broadcast classic moments throughout BYU sports history.

Each day of broadcasting features a different BYU sport. Monday’s schedule...

So reported by the Idaho Statesman. I don't know how to link with my BB so you'll just have to take my word for it

Should the MWC vote to add Boise State by July 2nd?

79% previously said yes to adding the Broncos by today:

That vote may have been cast mostly before the Big XII's future became so murky. We still have 3 weeks left to watch and wait, see if...

We need a new temporary forum for expansion rumors and predictions.

I just finished watch the MWC news conference regarding expansion. Commissioner Thompson noted that models for expansion included not only 10, but also 12 and 16 teams. He also noted the 16 would only happen if all the major BCS conferences went to...

I just heard...

...That the Big XII Presidents have been up all night trying to decide what to do. And tomorrow afternoon, they will officially invite Arizona, Arizona State, BYU, and Utah to join the Big XII.

Here's everyone's chance to put which conferences they think schools will be committed immediately before the 2010 football season begins. Since expansion hinges on a few teams, the easiest way to do this is to have a list of teams and everyone list...

They added Boise State!

:lol:

Very good article on how the Big10 and Pac10 are screwing over college football.

Enjoy.

I believe this is Texas attempting to force its hand in getting the big12 to remain in tact. If they are planning on bolting then i think they consider the pac10 offer much more seriously.

if the commit to the big12 then Utah probably has a better...

...and the Big 12 is decimated by the Pac 0 and the Big T1E1N, leaving Iowa St, Kansas, KSU, and CU/Baylor...

...if the MWC powers + Boise were to join these teams under the umbrella of the Big 12 (sorry SDSU and WYO, you're not invited), rather...

With the Pac-10 Conference planning to discuss expansion later this month, San Diego State has indicated it wants to leave the Conference. And a member of the Holiday Bowl board of directors is urging BYU to form an alliance with Colorado of the...

Because we could very well be upgrading the weakest link on the field (ILB)....with a true freshman:

If we can get some lateral speed in the middle of the field, our secondary will be able to focus on their real responsibility for the first time...

On a different board, I read a suggestion that the Big east should make an ultimatum to Notre Dame: Join the conference in all sports or leave. Which made no sense at all to me at first. Then I thought about it.

Either the Domers accept (good for...

Yeah!

Should the MWC vote to add Boise State on Monday?

A recent article said that the SEC is looking at adding Texas and Texas A&M, and then 2 (if successful) or 4 (if unsuccessful) of: Florida State, Miami, Georgia Tech, and Clemson. None of the last 4 schools improve the SEC's TV markets much, but...

If you are Texas, what do you do?

-Join the Big Ten?
-Join the PAC-10?
-Join the SEC?
-Stay in the Big XII?

We saw how well a 16-team conference worked when the old WAC expanded from 10 to 16 schools to gobble up Rice, SMU, & Co. My feeling is, the PAC-10 or any other conference would eventually meet the same fate, being crushed under it's own bloated...

The SWC had 9 members in 1990, the year Arkansas announced they were leaving. In '91, Arkansas joined the SEC, leaving 8. In 1993, Texas, Texas A&M, Texas Tech, and Baylor left to join the Big 8, forming the Big 12. But the 4 remaining teams didn't...
