Big East + Big 12 = Big Leftovers Conference?

While there may be 4 major conferences left standing, there are enough to form a decent leftover conference or two - one in the western US, and one with the midwest/eastern US.

I think this will be attempted before a conference is ever let to completely die.

I saw that. Guess by their calculations we will be playing ISU as conference foes in a few years...

For a fan base that likes to trash the Big Ten all the time they sure do have a hardon for the Big Ten.

If you want to purposely lower your IQ, go to CF and read there take on realignment. It's an unprecedented mix of stupidity, depression, and delusion.

I grew up a Big 10 fan and still am, I would love to see ISU in the Big10. If the southern schools go to the Pac 12 its not a pretty sight unless we back door our way into the Big 10. Any other option is not really pretty as of now.

Exactly! I have been saying this all day. ISUer especially has been hating on the B1G yet in the same breath he is preaching how great it would be to get a B1G invite.

Re:Big East + Big 12 = Big Leftovers Conference?

To be fair the Clone fans I know think there is no chance they get in the Big 10. It's the message board crowd like ISUer that have JP on speed dial and know 79 year old boosters with creepy smiles that give the fan base a bad name.
