BYU seems to think their no sunday play rule will keep them from consideration, Probably the most obvious choice though.

havent seen this reported anywhere but it sounded a lot like a story I reade earlier today about some potential movement in the Pac-10 conference (and others).

"... the Pac-10, which like the Big Ten, announced plans to consider expansion. The most likely scenario sends Utah and Colorado to that league. Of the Pac-10’s current membership, six are members of the Association of American Universities, a prestigious consortium of research institutions. Of the league’s other four members, two were ranked among the top 60 schools in the latest U.S. News and World Report rankings for best public colleges. (USC, a private university, ranks 26th overall.) Colorado ranks 34th on that list and is an AAU member. Utah is not an AAU member but ranks 63rd on that list, ahead of Oregon State, which was not ranked among the top 100."

Other options for the Big XII don't really add much, except for perhaps Arky (but Arky probably won't leave the SEC). Colorado State would probably be the next most logical, but their football program has been down in the dumps lately. TCU has been the best lately, but the Big XII is already Texas heavy so the Frogs wouldn't add any new markets.

No way is arkansas leaving SEC, lets remember that this is all about $$$$s and the SEC can buy and sell the big 12 at its whim...

as it is now perhaps. But I think I read where per school, the biggest TV payday is the Big 10 w/ its own network. I could see the Big 12 going to its own network, which would no doubt command a higher premium than does the Big 10 network.
