Looks like you guys are getting the invites.

Too much smoke at this point.

Oh come on. I suspect the administrators have not yet made a decision. Give them a couple of hours.

Those were to two teams that made since from the beginning, so I would not be surprised.

And if it's only 2 and those 2, the American should be okay going forward. Sucks to lose Cincinnati, but we could have lost as many as 5 if the B12 took 4 from the AAC and that caused UConn to leave.

Yes, that is the best case scenario for the AAC (besides no expansion at all).
The AAC has a chance to build on their recent success and hopefully get an improved TV deal. Who do you think they add? Smiss? ODU? Stay at 11?

I would stay at 11 for t he time being. With the champ game deregulation (championship game without 12 teams) I would stay until someone is ready to bring value to the league. All the candidates will still be available in 2-3 years.

Try to add Army/Air Force and if they both say no add no one (assuming there's any truth to this stuff).

Cincy for all sports, BYU for football only is a rumor floating around.

If BYU gets it, even as football-only -- which might actually be better for them, maybe -- they will certainly have earned it, in as much as one can "earn it" these days, on the field. Arguably the best non-P5 program available.

Still think Texas bloc can force Houston into the picture. We'll see!

I think the only way Houston gets in is if they expand by 4.

RE: Congrats BYU and UC
Expansion by four would be an even clearer signal that there is zero effort to keep the conference together past the current TV deal/GoR, than not expanding.

That would be a pure "grab the full pro-rata money, and run away at the end" deal.


Two is reasonable. Two means: "we're gonna try to save this thing, and keep OU and Texas home where they belong in eight years".

I read the leak. It is BYU, Air Force, Colorado State and surprising Wyoming. Where did Wyoming come from?
