Spitballing here, but if the B1G were to explore expansion I wouldn't be surprised to see them target major TV markets on the east coast & mid-south, e.g. markets in Virginia, North Carolina, and Georgia, with strong academics and make a run at schools like UNC, Georgia Tech, UVA, etc.  May seem odd on the surface, but that would be consistent with the most recent additions of Maryland & Rutgers.

Those conferences are rolling though. You do have a point though about the TV markets though.  West Virginia doesn’t add that much.  I know we looked at Mizzou back in the day

I’ve seen this UNC talk on other sites as well every time B1G expansion comes up….There’s not a shot that they’d ever leave the ACC unless the ACC had dwindled to the point it was bordering on becoming a G5 conference. It would be like Alabama leaving the SEC.

Is Notre Dame playing in the ACC again this year? They named their game manager at QB.

Back to normal though they do have a deal to play 4-5 ACC schools a year. I can't wait till people freak out when they don't realize the Toledo game is solely on Peacock.

Underwhelming schedule for a school that proclaims themselves as a national power IMO.

NCAA investigation of Nebraska underway.  With the NCAA's typical response time, we should know the outcome by 2030 by which time the NCAA may no longer exist.

Nebraska Coach Scott Frost is also reportedly under an extensive Nebraska internal investigation for greatly sucking as a football coach.  ;)

Unlike with the NCAA investigation, it is likely that there will be a quick and comprehensive confirmation of the allegations.

Doubt this is what the administration envisioned when they fired Pelini when he was only winning 9 games a season. Hate to see it

Nebraska sucks and they’re getting busted for something that you only get in trouble for if someone wants you in trouble. Buhbye, Frosty.

Would’ve thought Frost was 1 of those guys who would be given all the latitude in the world and be really tough to fire. He must be an even bigger creep up close than he seems to be from a distance.
