Now that Texas AM has pulled the plug on the Big 12, its only a matter of time before OU/OSU start abandoning ship. Jim Delaney has to know that the SEC wouldnt expand if they werent set on going to at least 14 members, but if the SEC goes to 16, you would think that Jim Delaney and the B1G have to have a plan in place. I know that he recently said they are set on 12 right now, but i think that was just intended to keep their hand. IMO here is what i think. If the SEC goes to 14, i think the B1G adds Missouri and Pitt. Now if the SEC goes to 16, then i think that is enough for the landscape to truely change and the B1G would add Missouri, Pitt, Kansas and.....Notre Dame. The creation of the Superconference is what will do Notre Dame in. I think personally Delaney and Slive are talking behind closed doors and master minding this whole thing. What do you think...you know the B1G is watching very closely!

Super conferences and a playoff. That will be the end result.
