Big Ten-Pac 12 Pact Dissolves

[Omaha-Husker]

Did this fall through in all sports then? If so that is a bummer,

I'm ok with this.

I think we would be suffering from over-saturation if teams played in the reg season and played in the postseason.

I'd also rather be playing the SEC,Big XII or ACC.

I think the saturation argument is a bit overblown.

The B1G has a single postseason tie in with the Pac-12 (the Rose Bowl duh). It has 3 with the SEC (Capitol One, Outback & Gator) & 2 with the Big 12 (Insight & Meineke).

The problem with meeting SEC opponents more during the regular season is that so few of it's teams are willing to travel outside of Dixie. As for the Big 12 outside of Texas & Okie there is nobody worth playing.

ACC then.

Weaker conference, good cities, great recruiting states, a bunch of Big Ten alumni in those areas. We also have the BBall set up with them.

And we don't play them in the postseason often if at all.

Wouldn't MAC be a step up over ACC?

You would be correct. But I want it for selfish reasons(ie traveling)

MAC teams retread over the wonderful midwest that I already live in and visit during the Big Ten season.

MAC covers Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, New York and Massachewsets Massechusets Massachushets the state north of Connectthedots, oh heck, Red Sox country

Nope, no Nebraska or Iowa, sounds like good recruiting territory though

Yeah, this probably would've been a bigger deal for non-revenue sports than football...it's too bad that it didn't work out.

I think a similar setup with ACC would be fun, but the B1G may be giving up too much leverage by treating the ACC as an equal partner

So which three schools jacked the deal up?

So which three schools jacked the deal up?

espn link says 4 schools.

S and A are very common letters. Odds are that said schools have both letters in their names.

I have it on good authority that Ty Willingham villain behind in all of this.

It was posted in the comments section under articles and on message boards so it has to be true.

The question is - would you give him your Bud Lite?
