Big Ten's 12th team?

**Supreme Olajuwon** · 12-14-2009, 06:48 PM

I don't know how conference realignments work, but if the conferences have a say in it, I can't see the Big 12 being willing to give up the revenue from their football championship game which is what would happen if Mizzou went. No way the SEC lets Kentucky's basketball revenue leave. And I can't see the Big East being willing to give up one of their football teams since they only have 8 now.

I could see Notre Dame leaving the Big East, but that all depends on NBC. The Big Ten has wanted Notre Dame for years. They already play Michigan, Michigan State, and Purdue every year in football, so why not just make it official? Everyone and their mother wants to see Notre Dame and Ohio State schedule each other. It makes so much sense.
