USC/UCLA plan to leave PAC-12 for BIG 10

[JDS]

Both programs are in talks to leave the PAC-12 as soon as 2024. This will give the BIG TEN 16 teams, which will match the SEC with 16 teams when Texas and Oklahoma arrive, your thoughts if any ?

The college sports money grab continues.

Long term all these moves may backfire as regional rivalries go away, but I don't think that's on anybody's mind.

So the Big 10 will stretch from New Jersey to L.A. Good for the east coast fans to travel with team and visit SoCal. And both theses schools will get more exposure.

This will be an interesting era moving forward now with all this new money in collegiate sports. I tend to agree with you, it’s definitely going to take away from all the old school rivalries with these money grabs switching conferences.

SEC and Big Ten are gonna continue to shine for decades to come. Everyone else will virtually never have a chance for the 4 team college playoff unless they expand it. Maybe these moves will force them to expand to at least 8 teams by 2024.

More teams on the move

This too

Cincinnati, UCF, Houston, BYU are all moving to the Big 12 coming from the American Athletic Conference besides independent BYU. Big 12 & PAC 12 are gonna be borderline Power 5 conferences for the Selection committee for the CFP.

I almost feel like we could have two different college playoffs in the future. One for Super Conference & one for all these other Conferences lol. Things are a changing that’s for sure.

 

[JDS]

I could see Notre Dame moving to the Big Ten or ACC at some point as well.

Well they are in the ACC for basketball. Speculating that all their other sports programs are as well.

Hell yeah Minny

 

[JDS]

Rutgers, Indiana, & Northwestern don’t really belong in this Super Conference anymore. It will be interesting to see if they move to these other lower tier Conferences if they eventually decide for a split playoff.

That would be the best part. I need to get into college football. I mostly just focus on the pros

The college football market is so much easier to find an edge, because there’s so many more games in the market. After September the NFL is the hardest market to handicap as the line makers are well-adjusted. Not saying you can’t make money if you do your homework.

Do you bet a lot of preseason stuff when the lines maybe softer?

Great question Bobby. No I usually don’t too many unknown factors involved, plus I’m working with a small bankroll these days to tie up money for future bets.

Done deal.
