Rhetorical questions, for some of the posters in this thread:
Where are you getting this impression that Big 10 academics are so great, and OU/Nebraska academics are so bad?
Where is it written that A&M and Texas have to be in the same conference?
Question for UT fans:
Why the hell would you want to go to the Big 10?
Arkstfan is the realignment guru and is making complete sense, as usual. I can't see Texas bolting for the Big 10 - at least not being the first to leave.
What I would believe is the Pac 10 pulling Utah and Colorado. If that happens, chaos time.
Pitt seems like the best fit for Big 10 expansion, assuming Notre Dame will never stoop to that level.
