Message: [QUOTE="chakka3421, post: 437522, member: 1091"] B1G moves are motivated by Fox/Murdock sports empire's attempt at dismantling ESPNs lock on college sports especially in the NE corridor. ESPN essentially got outFOXed by the latest BTN expansion. I think BTN future plans are Kansas & UConn but also in play are Syracuse, BC & UVA. Going any further south doesn't seem to fit the mold of a "northern" based super conference. 1. UVA-Kansas 2. Kansas-UConn 3. UConn-Syracuse-BC-UVA First 2 makes a 4 team region rivalries (potential). However #3 makes for an East-West conference. Eastern conference would be Mich, Mich St, Ohio St, Ped St, Maryland, Rutgers and 2 of 4 universities remaining for 8 team B1G East. [/QUOTE]
