The SEC didn't just get the top two brands from the B12, they

got arguably 2 of the to 5 brands in the Nation. the same can be said about USC to the B12. We are not talking about top in the conference, but the top brands in the nation. If Michigan and Ohio State were poached by some conference 15 years ago, the BIG would be a shell of itself. The same can be said about the SEC if Bama Georgia and LSU were poached. List the top 10 football brands in all of college football. it is there you will find schools that will be invited to either the BIG or SEC. The rest of us will just have to knock them off their pedestal. Get another Frank Beam, and KU will meet you in the Orange Bowl.

If they absolutely had to join a conference, would bet they would join...

Agreed, but we likely won't pull P2 money anymore as Big10 and SEC grew...

Not feeling it long term

Agreed - long term demographics do not favor B1G - it may take decades

Texas and Oklahoma are arguably the top 5 brands in football.

An important distinction - "Brands" vs. performance on the field

P2 (read advertisers) aren't leaving the Atlanta to DC corridor untouched
RTFC 08/19/23 04:44 PM ET
Probably, but remember, the P2 is Fox and ESPN. They already have
Big12 guy 08/20/23 04:11 PM ET
Not with any teams that, as you said, some could probably compete in the P2
