NCAA Football, 2014-2015

Eh just send TCU over there.  They are the newbies.

Yeah, but someone else would have to go too.  I volunteer Kansas State for the honor.

No they wouldn't.

Kansas
Kansas State
Oklahoma
Oklahoma State
Texas
Texas Tech
Baylor

That's seven.  I mean I just presumed Iowa State would go east being the most easterly school.

Keep Iowa State, send the purple menace. 

Seriously though, that division needs good teams, not Iowa State.  Granted, Bill Snyder won't be there forever, but Iowa State doesn't really add anything except a doormat. The Wildcats can stay respectable to good with a solid coaching hire after Snyder is gone.  They're no slouch in basketball either.

E:  They'll probably hire a shitty coach and go back into the toilet though.

Oh cool.  More realignment talk. 

Here's my idea:  B12 to 14 teams (they hold the trademark on Big 14, so that becomes the name).  Add Cincy, ECU, UCF, USF.  Split the divisions East/West. 

Done.

WVU has some nearby teams, and now there are trips to both Florida and Texas for recruiting.   

BYU is independent. All those other schools are inferior academically and athletically, not just to BYU but also the Big 12 membership.

BYU basically told the Big 12 to F off unless they fulfilled a list of demands.  So, you know, probably a non-starter.

The world has changed since then. I'd be shocked if they turned down the Big 12 now.

The Big-12 can petition the NCAA to allow them to have a championship game with only 10 teams, and I can't imagine the NCAA refusing that at this point.

I think this is what they will do, as stupid as that is.  God I hate championship games.

Mormons haven't changed since then.

Yep their demands are all related to their Mormonism.

Seems that might not be true.

Do they still not do anything on Sundays?  No?  Fuck them.  Besides, WVU needs nearby partners.  Bowlsby is mildly retarded though, so maybe they'll get an invite!

Yeah going East makes some amount of sense.  Though I have never heard our Hook'em brothers at USF mentioned as a possibility.

[MadBurgerMaker]

I haven't either, tbh, except in my little ideas that have no weight at all.

[PDH]

The answer is simple.  Add Wyoming and some other loser team out east and roll in all the added media bucks of having the nation's smallest population state as part of the coverage zone!
