After Oklahoma and Texas       (but still prior to the Big Ten acquisitions) went to the SEC, 18 of the top       20 are Big Ten or SEC schools, the only exceptions being Notre Dame and       Clemson. The Pac-12 only had        2 in the top 30: Washington and USC, and two more between 30 and 40: Oregon       and Utah. Without USC and UCLA, I don't think the Pac-N was ever going to be       able to pull a really good TV deal. The Big 12 did themselves some favors by       quickly snagging BYU (       23rd), and UCF (49th). Certainly not as good as Oklahoma and Texas but right       in line with the next tier. With the recent moves, the team with the best       attendance that does not belong to the Big Ten, SEC, ACC, or Big 12 is Cal at       #55.              And Cal hasn't been on-field relevant since the year they got screwed out and       told the Holiday Bowl to go fuck off.              You are basically going to be down to four major conferences and Notre Dame.        Do you get a re-breakaway, or...              Mike              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
