[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In 2024, UCLA & USC will leave the Pac 12 Conference to join the Big Ten Conference.

Expect the University of Washington & the University of Oregon to follow. Then Stanford & UCal-Berkeley will apply for Big Ten membership. (The Univ. of Washington & the Univ. of Oregon have already applied for Big Ten membership, but--even though thoroughly vetted & cleared by the Big Ten--their applications are on hold as the Big Ten university presidents do not want to be responsible for the collapse of the Pac 12 Conference.)

The Big 12 Conference and the Big Ten Conference are waiting for the University of Colorado to make the first move. When Colorado moves to the Big 12, then the Pac 12 will be devoured by other conferences.

The Pac 12 media rights deal expires on July 1, 2024 and no new deal has been reached.

Follow the money--where the Big Ten Conference rules--and it is easy to understand why U Washington, U Oregon, Stanford, & UCal-Berkeley want to move to the Big Ten Conference.

As of now, Notre Dame will remain an independent with a working agreement with the ACC. If Notre Dame football does decide to join a conference, their realistic options are limited to the Big Ten Conference, The SEC, or [b]the NFL[/b].[/quote]

Sure the worst NFL team would win every game in the SEC by 50-60 points including the college playoff games.

At any one time about 16,000 college football players are draft eligible, which is only 1.6% of that college player pool. Only 259 players will be drafted. That is 0.016% of the draft-eligible NCAA pool. Of the 259 drafted on average only 30% make the team. [/quote]
