Conference changes won't go into effect until 2011/2012.

Nebraska is 79-68-10 vs. the Big Ten, but 39-6 since 1962. Let's see how well they can do playing in the Big 10. I'd love to see a Nebraska vs Texass in the Rose bowl in 2013

How do they not pull Houston, TCU, Utah, BYU, Air Force, Tulsa, Boise, and Nevada together to make a "best of the rest" conference? Hell, they could go to 16 if they wanted to take some teams like SMU, Fresno, Troy, and some 16th school.

Couldn't you squeeze one BCS bid out of the NCAA for a conference like that?
that's what i was thinking. why not, with boise joining the MWC, have kansas, k-state, iowa state and baylor absorb the MWC under the Big 12 name? not sure how the bcs/conference tie ins go but wouldn't that then give tcu, utah, and boise the opportunity to cash in on an automatic bcs birth?

North

utah
byu
boise state
wyoming
colorado state
iowa state
kansas
kansas state

South

unlv
san diego state
tcu
oklahoma state
texas tech
baylor
new mexico
air force

would the big12/mwc merge create a viable "power conference?"

Miami AD:

Asked if he would entertain an offer to join another conference

"No. No. The Atlantic Coast Conference is our home, Jorge, it makes all the sense in the world for us. We focus each and every day on hoisting that ACC championship and positioning us to compete for national championships. The ACC is our home and that's where we're going to be. We're excited about the future growth."

With the addition of Boise to the MWC, I don't really think TCU or Utah would wanna leave for the leftovers of the Big 12.

Hopefully Nebraska's move to the Big 10 will make it harder for Pelini to leave for Ohio State at some point in his coaching career.

Does anyone have a legit explanation as to why Texas would go to the PAC 10 over the SEC???

Seems like the money would be better with the SEC.

Travel would seemingly be easier as well.

Just weird that they're likely going to the PAC 10, IMO.
