PAC 10 talk...

[NastySlot]

anyone else hear they're consider expansion?.....rumor has it looking at Utah and Colorado.

I was thinking combine that with Big10 talk of expansion which considered Missouri.............wow......the big 12 could be in trouble...I would think the TV markets (denver, kc and st louis)those losses would hurt revenue.


might get interesting.

might get interesting. Yes that is exactly what I heard. It was on ESPN and came straight out of the Pac 10 presidents mouth. He said though alot of Pac 10 memebers favored the round robin, the 12 team format would increase national exposure and revenue with the addition of more out of conference games and a championship game.

might get interesting. Yes there is lots of talk, the Pac 10 recently hired former Big 12 commissioner Kevin Weiburg as their deputy commissioner, I'd heard after Weiburg left the Big 12 he was instrumental in starting the Big 10 network for the Big 10, and talk of Big 10 expansion, I guess his presence in the Pac 10 will be the beginnings of a network and expansion for the Pac 10, his Big 12 past is one reason that Colorado, Missouri, and Texas keep popping up as schools those two conferences are looking at for expansion.

Let the Big 10 take Mizzou and the PAC-10 take Colorado. The Big 12 can then add Boise State and TCU. This will actually make the Big 12 conference tougher then it is now. The Big 12 can move Oklahoma State to the North Division to replace one of the teams we lost along with Boise then leave TCU in the south.

What about the concept of geography adding a team from Idaho in the Big 12?

I like the idea of adding TCU and Arkansas into the Big 12.

:ditto: I miss having them in the same conference as they were back in the old SW Conference days. AND it would be great for the Big 12 to have access to the great Ark. sports facilities.
