With NIL, Transfer portal and now more realignment, I don't think anyone knows where this ends up. 

I hate the super-conference idea. Seems like there is a feeling that putting all the "good" teams together will lead to athletic nirvana. Problem is someone has to lose games. Will Texas keep raking it in after a few 7-5 seasons in the SEC Far West quadrant 4.4c division?  I wonder. 

Unless something changes I’m going to be shocked if Texas can consistently win 7 games in the sec

Rumors of USC to B1G.

It will be interesting to see how the SEC does/changes their divisions.  And if they increase the # of conference games.

If true, cam they join us in the East?  The Big Ten West is already cupcake enough

We need Notre Dame. They only get $15 million a year from NBC. The way revenues are going they could triple or quadruple that in the B10. My second choice would be Brigham Young. They have a national following, albeit much smaller than Notre Dame.

Kansas and Notre Dame.... Go!

Point to ponder.  Be an annual top dog in your present conference or become a perpetual bottom feeder in a mega conference.

Super conferences will begin edging out the NCAA. That’s where you’ll see conferences begin to make an even bigger leap in the bank accounts.

Bottom feeder may pay more. I think one of the next steps will be booting less successful football schools from the SEC.
