[Husker] Re: husker Digest, Vol 7, Issue 135

If the trend is towards 16-team conferences, why doesn't the Big XII go  
after TCU, Colorado State, Air Force, and maybe Boise State?  TCU and Boise  
would probably jump at the chance to join a BCS conference, CSU and Air  
Force would raise interest in the state of CO quite a bit, and AF would add  a 
whole additional military, non-geographic, demographic to the fan base.   Air 
Force also brings a couple of Service Academy bowl tie-ins that are 
separate  from the BCS conference guarantees as well.  I am partial to the Falcons, 
 but I think in most seasons lately, they are good enough to be a 
middle-third  team in the Big XII and qualify for a bowl game. 
 
Just thinking maybe the Big XII should go on the offensive instead of  
waiting for the older conferences to try and pick it apart.

In that situation you have 4  divisions and you have a conference semi-final
as well as  final.   I've heard that proposed before and I think that's  
what
the NCAA most fears.  Because these 'super conferences' can tell  the NCAA 
to
shove it and do their own thing.

Subject: [Husker] ESPNU take on  "Ultimatum"

I was watching ESPN U today. -- And they had a long segment  on the Big XII
and Pac 10 stories - One scenario they mentioned that we  haven't seen much
of out of the midwest is that the Big XII and Pac 10  could fully merge -
making a 22 team league. 

That seems really  ridiculous! In most sports you would never play every 
team
in the league in  any one season! How would they even do that? 

I hope Nebraska uses this  new found "power" to it's advantage and Dr. Tom
plays tough! If we're gonna  stay in the Big 12 we need some Texas sized
benefits! 

Mizzou is  probably thinking the same! 

Go Big Red! At least it's not just another  dull "post spring game - how 
many
days til Football starts?" summer!
