Message: [QUOTE="HRE Otto IV, post: 4296439, member: 5685"] Eventually the conferences will be a shell of what they are today. Combining into a mega conference does nothing to change that. Why should those teams leave the P12 when the B12 money won't be a significant increase? That is just rearranging the deck chairs. They are better off hoping that the B1G or SEC grabs them, while waiting it out in the P12. That goes the same for the ACC schools. A national conference of poor football brands isn't a money maker. Stay regional unless the B1G or SEC come calling. Those P12 schools moving is a panic move. The only way a national #3 conference works is if it starts from scratch. If the best teams from the P12, B12, and ACC all left to create an 18 team conference, then sure. But keeping all the B12 or all the ACC doesn't cut the fat. [/QUOTE]
