Message: [QUOTE="HtownOrange, post: 4641481, member: 622"] If the B1G is expanding big, they are going much bigger than 24, probably closer to 32 or 36. If they are going big, expect targets on both coasts. 32 and 36 make for nice numbers to make regional divisions, too. Though I remain neutral on whether the B1G will or won't continue larger expansion plans, if they do at some point the conference becomes too unwieldy and cumbersome unless they are big enough to recreate some historic rivalries to counter all of the new forced "rivalries". Eg.: The historic B1G teams will want their old rivalries more often. The west coast teams will want some old rivalries (travel is less of an issue other than an extra hour or two in the air), PSU still wants more eastern rivalries and if the B1G is serious about UVA, UNC and GATech, they will want one or two "friends" to come along.
