Big East has bigger television markets. I rather suspect the monetary value of a <i>"championship game"</i> is over-rated.<br /><br />I am with you in finding the whole thing ridiculous and a bit disgusting. Conferences should be geographic, determined by type of school (public/private), and size, and all conferences should have the same number of teams. Period. National champion should be determined by polling to four teams and then playoff.Jayhawkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00756807802218022043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4538791377708510222.post-79945354173149730102010-12-04T07:18:21.903-08:002010-12-04T07:18:21.903-08:00I certanly understand the financial aspect, but as...I certanly understand the financial aspect, but as a purist I find the whole thing ridiculous. If the Big Twelve wanted to go back to twelve teams TCU would be one they should certainly look at. They would be a suitable replacement for Colorado, perhaps even a step up. Never will be able to replace Nebraska. Not sure who else though could be considered for an addition to the Big 12. Houston, Tulsa, UTEP, Louisiana Tech? Not sure there. Houston does have a history with the SWC which is Big Twelve is an offshoot of. Just speculating. I think there will be a good deal of "realignment" before it is all said and done.Bartender Cabbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05623813045706584212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4538791377708510222.post-22518789627263041322010-12-03T08:19:13.730-08:002010-12-03T08:19:13.730-08:00It's good for TCU financially.

It's all about the money.<br /><br />It also gives tham a far better shot at the national championship game.Jayhawkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00756807802218022043noreply@blogger.com
