just heard from my boss (OSU d-lineman for Bob Simmons) a pretty amazing if true rumor...the Big 12 is adding 4 members of the B10 for one year. Want to guess which ones? think BIG
Big 10 & Big 12 Super Con
- Thread starter Tollboothmgr
- Start date
New rumor. The Big Ten is voting to not have a 2020 football season. I've read that the vote was 12-2. My guess is that Ohio State is one of the two. Second guess is that tOSU and one or three others want to play this season, and will be allowed to in the Big XII. So we go from 10 to 14?
he said tosu, mich, psu and nebbie wanna play. i'm as much of an eye-roller as anyone but these days you just don't freakin know what's going on. so sick of this covid sh+t i wanna beat up the nearest tree-hugger and i'm a pacifist (mostly)
how about this....
Big 12 North....Oh state, Nebbie, Iowa st, Mich, PSU, WVU, Kansass
Big 12 South...OU, OSU,TX, Taco tech, Bay, TCU, KSU.

The original 2 were Ohio St and Michigan. But sounds like some other schools have infighting as well.
Would be cool if it happened but they would be wise to find two or four “pods” and play all games using the full weekends (or Friday and Saturdays) somehow to limit travel. Of course there would have to be few or no spectators until one or more of the vaccines are finalized
It makes no sense to split up the two Kansas schools, when West Virginia could go either way.
I'd be surprised if Michigan is one of the four.
I like this better. Big 12 blows. Iron sharpens iron. Even though I hate the SEC attitude.
The Big Ten owns the TV rights of the schools in the B10, so I doubt that they'll be able to move on.
Now OU & UT... that's a different story. They could possibly move over to another conference as I think they still own their TV rights. Not sure though.

B10 is pulling the plug:

shout out to ya nasty....correctly predicted the outcome of the b10 members (neb, tosu...) who looked at playing elsewhere. you said the money (tv rights) would dictate policy, and it sure seems to have slammed the lid on any move for frost and day to play outside of conference. i'm guessin the b10 spring plan also required that all 14 waited to play next yr.
