I agree that is probably how it would play out. Michigan would probably object to having to play Notre Dame and Ohio State, plus the rest of the schedule, every year.

Purdue

People say "ND should join the Big Ten because that's where USC, Michigan, Michigan State, and Purdue are, and we'd like to keep playing them."

"We're not going to attack a NATO ally for what this is really about: mineral rights under the Arctic. Also I am a walking national catastrophe." That would do it.

We should make Greenland part of NATO then. Oh, wait. Maybe we should get a treaty that allows the US to station military personnel there. Oh, wait.

My particular type of autism knows this would be a terrible tank. T-34 would wreck its shit.

Unrelated, but I would LOVE for Notre Dame to bring back wrestling.

This was Notre Dame's year and I'll never be able to be convinced otherwise. Robbed.

From West Perth, Australia. I'm no geographer but I think that would put you in the actual ocean lol

Assuming conferences do not want to exceed 20 years... who would be the 20th members? Virginia? UNC? Miami?

The SEC is at 16, so they could add those four. That is what I think would happen. And then the rest would "figure it out" with the Big 12 but youll probably see the northeastern schools like Syracuse and Boston College get the Washington State treatment. The best option is for Congres to call...

Sounds like 2030 is the earliest. Sign me up for that.

It's wild to me how people will just refuse to see the truth staring them in the face, and the "oh we'll get a combination of XYZ to patch a schedule together" crowd are the most unserious ones lol Short of Congressional action, superconferences are here to stay, which means they are the...

This is basically fanfiction, with a bonus prequel meme. I hate superconferences. I also hate not playing historic rivals. I hate not playing historic rivals more than I hate superconferences.

Or, Notre Dame reads the writing on the wall. "We're independent!" is the weirdest thing to hang your hat on, as a program. Independent of what? Scheduling agreements with most of your historic rivals?

Join the Big Ten already.

You can play this game with Love and the rushing stats of Johnny Manziel, a quarterback.

I for one welcome congressional involvement. The uncertainty is the problem. Congress needs to set the rules of the road and colleges can adjust accordingly.
