35 to 40 Top Brands

[UltimateGarageHusker]

There is no indication they wouldn't. They added Rutgers, Maryland, UCLA, Oregon and Washington since we joined. All less attractive than Nebraska.

Regardless, who's to say we'd want them anyway? The entire point of this whole discussion is, we'd be just fine without them. Hell, maybe the SEC would add us, which would be a huge upgrade. Or, we'd be the only blue blood in the Big 12 where there would certainly be some upside and we'd be just fine. Again, I'm not saying that's what I'd necessarily want, but I wouldn't be mad at all if that were the case.

We would not be fine in the Big 12 in comparison to where we are at now. Smarter people than us who have a very clear picture of our financials and the future started realizing that about 13 years ago. I’m super happy we are where we are or we’d be on the outside.

them are the only brands I'd put ahead of us...and if you look at the size of campus, enrollment, money, etc....
they should be...only the okies are about the same and they are basicly texas north as far as recruiting...
the penn states, lsu, georgia, clemson, miami, fsu,florida, tenn, a&m I would'nt....

I consider Penn St one of the blue bloods. They‘re one of the eight programs that have over 900 wins..

All the forced buttsex kind of tarnished their rep

Plus only 1 title

That was a fake media title & requires an asterisk

Yet both those blue bloods are moving on because of more money. And there are three not two blue bloods in the BIG other than us and about to be a total of 6 total with a handful of wannabes in Oregon, Washington, Iowa and Wisconsin. How many in the Big 12?

Might want to check your math...or the definition of blue blood. There are currently 2 besides us in the B1G...Michigan and Ohio State. There are soon to be 4 including us with the addition of USC. The fact that I have to explain that to you pretty much kills all your credibility.

as far as not referring to after this year……..well you should because that’s what the entire point is. Nobody that uses common sense can tell you that being in the B1G 12 is better than the B1G. I’m not sure who your friends are but maybe you should diversify your circle of friends if they’d rather be in the BIG 12 over the B1G. Might as well destin yourself to G5 then because that’s going to be the difference between the two conferences going forward.

Keep moving the goalpost to try to make your point. As I've already explained, I wouldn't rather be in the Big 12 right now. That doesn't change the fact that the B1G sucks and I'd have much rather been in the Big 12 over the past 10+ years. Also doesn't change the fact that if we were still in the Big 12, I wouldn't mind as it would definitely have some upside. Also doesn't change the fact that far less than 99% of the average fans would agree with me. And doesn't change the fact that we wouldn't be begging to get into anywhere as we are one of the 8 blue blood programs and easily a top 20 brand in college football.

But hey, you wanna' keep slobbering all over the B1G, you do you.

Ive revised my list. We have 10 blue bloods in the B1G. More than any other conference. It’s an honor being part of this fantastic group. Beats the ugly Big 12 who have zero.
