The SEC and Big 10 will invite other conferences to "their tourney".

The SEC and Big 10, backed by big money Fox and ESPN, will throw money at the minor conferences, and likely Big East, that it will be too hard to turn down. ACC and the Big 12 will be isolated and will have to cave. Sucks.

It seems very silly to have 4 auto bids each...
jesuisvtguy • 02/27/24 01:28 PM ET
If you don’t want an agreement, throw out something they wouldn’t agree to.
Stech • 02/27/24 01:40 PM ET

jesuisvtguy • 02/27/24 01:50 PM ET
If they do, then so be it. We would end up with three levels

I’m okay with more tiers/divisions. More teams can win an NC. Right now it

I feel like they are making these changes that will, ultimately, lead to
