This conference realignment stuff could drive a sane man crazy. Was it really that bad? This one right here is a no-brainer. If I’m the Big East, I walk up to Big 12 officials and ask, “You guys have a deal”. If they say “yes”, you reply, “Ok we’re in!” without even looking at the terms of the deal.

The Big East is on the edge of the abyss. With Pittsburgh and Syracuse gone, the conference looks like I-AA in football. The savior is the Big 12. Not only does football get a huge boost, it solidifies itself as a top basketball conference even with the loss of the Orange and Panthers. It’s not up for debate. It’s join the two together, or become a glorified A-1o of MAC.

Like I said before, the conference realignment stuff is driving me crazy. At the end of it all, we are going to end up with one super conference and the “others”. The “others”, of course, being those schools with crappy football teams. As it stands now, the Big East is on the verge of disappearing. The only thing that can save the conference at this point is Texas, Oklahoma State, Kansas, et. al. That is assuming the want to save them….
