2. Mizzou - very competitive. Unbelieveable B10 took Nebraska instead
3. Maryland - Great market, good for both sides
4. Rutgers - amazing market, people downplay Rutgers but they are middle of the pack
5. BE to ACC (this is basically the whole conference if you start out in the late 90's - the teams and the conference have survived which is more than I thought would happen)
6. Colorado - Great market for the PAC. Better position
7. Nebraska - could be higher on the list but the B10 made a huge mistake taking Neb over Mizzou.
8. Utah - Good new market for PAC.
9. WV - poor choice for both sides. I wonder if Big12 had gone for Louisville where WV would be right now. I think they'd still be in the BE (though after Maryland left they might have snuck into the ACC).
10. TCU - just a poor decision by the Big12 in terms of eyeballs. They have a great team though.
11. BYU - Independence is a lot better than MWC. I think BYU would have been a better choice than TCU or WV for the Big12.


2nd to Last Place. Big12 - If I were running the Big12 I'd drop WV (I would have taken Louisville) and take UCF, Cincinatti, BYU. But before all of that I would have done everything to keep Mizzou, TAMU, Nebraska, and Colorado. With those 4 teams they're up there with the SEC and PAC as top conference for football.

Last place (of those still standing). Big East.
