College conference shake-up!

I guess we should change our name to the Big 14?

ETA: Although yay for more AXiD chapters in my conference! We just colonized at Maryland this fall...(and a little off topic but Michigan State is re-colonizing Fall 2013!)

The logo already says Big 16, so which schools are waiting in the wings to join??

Am I missing something?

I'm not thrilled about either addition. I rather would have seen Notre Dame join. Whatever.

So disappointed with what the Big Ten is doing. We're a Midwestern conference and very proud of it. Maryland? Rutgers? Please. Nothing against anyone from those schools, but all of this conference realignment is just absolutely ridiculous.

I could have seen Notre Dame, Missouri, etc. Nebraska made sense as did Penn State. But this trolling the east coast for new cable markets is insulting.

But then TPTB stopped caring about what the fans think a looooong time ago.
