Apparently it's official: Maryland & Rutgers are now in the Big Ten.

Rolo Tomassi · 11-20-2012, 06:26 AM

Not sure how I feel about that. I'd say the country is definitely headed toward 3 or 4 super conferences. They're saying Illinois will join the Legends Division, and Maryland and Rutgers will go to the Leaders.

TH1974 · 11-20-2012, 06:28 AM

Hadn't heard that.

FrodoTBaggin · 11-20-2012, 06:42 AM

Next thing you know, Nebraska will be joining too.

Debit One · 11-20-2012, 06:45 AM

I also heard something about the conference forming a television network. Can anyone confirm this?

newsbreaker · 11-20-2012, 06:50 AM

This is stunning news, and a halo exclusive at that!

Rolo has started his afternoon whiskey-drinking session a little early.

Debit One · 11-20-2012, 07:59 AM

Rolo, would you like to wager on the Iowa - Central Michigan game? I will give you Iowa - 7, which is a heck of a deal.

newsbreaker · 11-20-2012, 08:01 AM

I'm a little worried this morning. Senator McCain's campaign appears to be floundering.

Match34 · 11-20-2012, 08:02 AM

DYK? - Looking Glass formed at Rutgers in 1969.

Keep giving Ronnie Harmon the ball, what's the worst that could happen?

Mo T · 11-20-2012, 08:11 AM

Penn State should be a fine addition to the Big 10. Classy coaches like Paterno and Sandusky.

Lime · 11-20-2012, 08:13 AM

There is a 95% chance that Rolo actually learned this from a physical newspaper this morning, likely surprising him (and causing his to spit out his coffee) and forcing him to push the bifocals up to make sure he was reading it right.

Has anyone else heard any rumors about UNC, U of Virginia, and Georgia Tech (and possibly Kansas) being in final talks with BigTen?

scottsdalehawk · 11-23-2012, 07:25 PM

yes and hopefully its UNC and UVA as the final 2

Adding UNC, Maryland and to a lesser extent Virginia would make the Big Ten beyond loaded in basketball and makes it almost impossible to finish in the top tier.

"Rutgers Ready For The Big Ten"

"Rutgers scored on a fake field goal that got called back. The Scarlet Knights then decided to punt from the opponents’ 31-yard-line with a lead. Louisville proceeded to drive 90 yards for a touchdown. Kirk Ferentz nods his head in approval."
