Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

[MuskieCy]

And Rutgers just beat Washington 21-18 on Friday Night football.

A further lowering of B1G but it won't matter.

I would really enjoy a road trip to Piscataway.

Then I would really enjoy our escape!!!!!!

No shocker here but Texas State with some options:

This PAC - MWC - AAC realignment talk is just extra sad.

It is nice to not have Iowa State involved.

Poor New Mexico State. Alone on an island in that league and blocked from moving by an historically awful football program at UNM.

That's rough.

Could we see the resurrection of Bulldog football?

Tarleton State and the Mountain West in discussions per Dellinger

this was from yesterday. Thought it was crazy they raised that much.

Any FCS school wouldn't count towards the 8 needed though because of the 2 year transition rule....

They'll get a waiver. I don't think that'll be an issue at all.

Zags confirmed.
Heard GCU is also a target? Seems ridiculous to take GCU but not want the dregs of the MW.

Rocco Miller says St Mary's and GCU have both had discussions with the PAC about all sports only membership.

GCU I get. St Mary's is a tiny school with no budget that's in real trouble after Randy Bennett retires.

Here it comes…

**** the super league

This isn’t a super league it’s a proposed league of 72, essentially just cutting out the G5.

Brett’s tweet didn’t really show the full context. The proposal would actually include all current FBS teams, realigning conferences, allowing for two divisions (with the groundwork for promotion, but not relegation).



I don’t think there’s any chance the SEC or Big 10 schools will sign on for this. The commissioners and conference staff certainly won’t.

The schools will do it if they can make more money. The commissioners will fight it tooth and nail because it renders them useless.

Pollard predicted this exact thing fairly recently.
