B1G expansion gives Buckeyes every tool to stay dominant in future
COLUMBUS — Ohio State has two new conference members. The Big Ten was aggressive in adding schools, an idea it shied away from at this time last year. And college football will never be the same.
The Big Ten made the move to add USC and UCLA, two traditional Pac-12 heavy-hitters, into the conference Thursday, getting its total membership to 16 schools — with the potential for more to be on the way.
So on the latest episode of the Tim May Podcast, Tim is bringing in a big-time guest to analyze the fallout of the latest round of expansion, one that includes the Big Ten. Tim is joined by Beau Bishop from 97.1 The Fan in Columbus, the flagship radio station for Ohio State football.
The two Columbus heavyweights break down every angle of the aggressive move by Kevin Warren and the Big Ten to add USC and UCLA, including where the Buckeyes have the biggest advantages over the rest of the league moving forward.
How can this move secure the long-term future of the Big Ten — and Ohio State as a top contender in the sport? Who has the edge between the SEC and the Big Ten, now that both conferences have recently made massive additions? What is next for the sport that is undergoing so many changes right now? And can Notre Dame stay independent, or will it need to join a conference soon?
You will not want to miss that and plenty more news and analysis and in another edition of the Tim May Podcast. It dives into a behind-the-scenes look at how Ohio State and the Big Ten will be changed forever now that two new members are in the fold.
