Message: [QUOTE="WoadBlue, post: 2700613, member: 1145"] The big problem with talking about that is it gets UConn fans all excited. They assume they are next in line.. Realistically, if I were advising the Big Ten and it had decided to dump Rutgers, my advice would be to go to 16 at the expense of the Big XII. I'd offer KU for 14 and OU for 15 and Texas for 16. And I'd make it clear that if only KU accepted, the Big Ten would stop at 14 - for a spell. If OU accepted and Texas didn't, then I'd beg Notre Dame one last time, and then I'd swallow hard and flirt with Missouri, and then I'd select #16 from among an esteemed group of Iowa St, Kanas St, Oklahoma St. But I don't see Rutgers getting dumped. The football powers love killing Rutgers. The BT does need OU football to go with Nebraska to make its West halfway interesting, and perhaps it could land OU with KU. [/QUOTE]
