So the Big Ten is looking for a 12th team to join their confrence
So far I've heard they're looking at Nebraska, which will be a good fit but I've also heard about them going after Colorado. About Nebraska I guess they're getting to much shit and grief from the schools in the state of Texas that're apart of the Big XII(Kinda like the rest of the country has been for the past seven years if you ask me). Supposively they've had enough bullshit from the state of Texas(Join the crowd guys) and are talking to the Big Ten about joing the rest of the rust belt states in college football shenanigans.

That would pretty much decimate the Big East.

3. Kick out Northwestern and let them both in!

But definitely let Pitt in. Pitt v Penn State every year would be awesome.

5. Yeah. As a non-state school Northwestern does not fit into the mold of Big Ten well

6. All this time I did not know that Northwestern was a private school
I just assumed that it was a state run school like all the others
