schools and must think that some of them would be willing to join.
the b12 has also spoken with many media outlets. those outlets have to want a 16 team conference. 16 teams give them more viewers and more content.

the b12 has pretty good geography .... good teams to the east and west of them that they might poach.

Nebraska fans and boosters have mixed feelings about the B1G.

AZ and AZ St have to think hard about leaving the P12. because of geography the P12 will have a difficult time getting to 16 teams. why not leave and join a 16 team B12????

same goes for Utah. if the p12 can't get to 16 teams first then why not leave and join a 16 team league with a huge media deal and access to the playoff?

if the b12 is predicting a major shakeup, then they are wise to postpone making any new alliances until then.
