justice98 Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 ESPN just had a graphic up about this UCLA/USC/Big Ten situation, and the thing that struck me most was.....the amount of college logos that are just a simple lazy letter. On this graphic, Penn State was the only one that looked like they put some effort into it and had a logo that wasn't just a letter of the alphabet.

Forehead Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 So what is it, the Big 20 at this point? I figure we're headed for a power four. The Big 10/20 and the SEC will be powerhouses. I think the ACC will stay relatively intact due to basketball. I'd assume what's left of the Big12 and Pac12 along with a few others would coalesce into a 4th conference.

Maybe VT can get in there too and be the Vanderbilt of the new Appalachian district or something. who knows. at this point just do away with conferences. Make it 1 huge 60-80 team league. Top 12 teams make the playoffs. Every team has 3 rivalry games every year. They rest are determined by random slots. So maybe one year you get Bama , OSU, Oklahoma, USC and Oregon. Oh well, you might get an easy schedule next year Edited July 1, 2022 by Momma There Goes That Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ball Security Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Heard a suggestion on the radio that said football and basketball should go to two or four super conferences while the rest of the sports revert back to traditional conferences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balki1867 Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 They should just expand the Big 10 to include like 120 major schools across the country-- they could make it some kind of national collegiate athletic association. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88Comrade2000 Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 West Virginia will never get an invite to any super conference. Big 20-24, er Ten. Sec 20-24. They will remain In the little league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basketball at least allows mid majors to thrive and win. Gonzaga being a top team for nearly 2 decades is proof of that. Football is the outlier where really only major conference teams consistently have a shot. And even then it's less than 6 or so teams every year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming the ACC wants to expand to match the B1G and the SEC, I'd like to think WVU would be in the mix. Them and maybe Cincinnati and/or USF? Or even Houston?

There’s only 2 real conferences, Big10 and SEC. They will poach the remaining big schools from the ACC,PAC 12,Big12. Whatever is left will be another level. I doubt conferences as we know them still exist. I don’t see WVU being invited to Big10/SEC. They will be stuck in whatever happens with the leftovers.

Momma There Goes That Man Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 (edited) Can they just create a semi pro super league with 30 teams, containing all the legacy schools and the rest of us can go back to normal college football with regional conferences and rivalries it’s just really hard to care and this doesn’t seem fun anymore. The sport has morphed into everything but the things that made me love it in the first place: the awesome brand of football, the pageantry, the traditions, the different styles of football played, the uniqueness every team had, the rivalries etc. thats all gone now as it’s all about money and being a factory for the NFL Edited July 2, 2022 by Momma There Goes That Man 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been thinking for a few years that it would settle at 4x16 team conferences and an 8 team playoff with conference championship as the first round.

I dunno, there were rumors flying around about more of the PAC12 following USC and UCLA....Oregon, Washington, Stanford, etc...that BIG10 might already be heading for 20 teams. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heisenberg Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 Big time college sports sucks now. Congrats to the the alums at a few of the big name schools but my interest is rapidly declining. Once they ruin March Madness I’ll probably be out completely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NILs already have highly recruited players making more than drafted athletes. Of course, not being 100+k in debt while get preferred everything at college is payment too. But I digress.
