Why wouldn’t the Big XII leftovers gobble up the AAC instead of the other way

If the Orphan 8 run to the AAC instead of poaching it, they’re even dumber than

I think the AAC is trying to capitalize on confusion and people trying to rush preservation. Also, Aresco is a master

ESPN wants B12 to fold so they don't have to pay them. Why pay more in the AAC?

Makes way more sense for the top half of the AAC to join the OU/UT-less B12 in

It is the other way around. The CFP is owned by the conferences and the B12 owns

Thanks. I guess that’s what I’m getting at. CFP is the king.

It would have to be a breakaway. The CFP has no power to do anything

True. If they stay the b12 then they retain their voting rights.

ESPN is/was planning to offer $$$ to expand the AAC, not the other way around
