UT, A&M to Big Ten

[NO2001]

The WAC, Big 12 and Big East are done! We're going to CUSA and will be there for a long time. This round of expansion will settle things for a long time.

I think you're right. All of the emphasis is being placed on the Big 10 and PAC 10, let us not forget about the most powerful conference in football. They've already stated that they would NOT let other conferences challenge their conference supremacy. Texas A&M from in the west and South Florida from the Big East would be great additions.

Texas A&M has been negotiating with the SEC for a couple weeks.
Deep down inside (though they wont admit it) they still want to be in the same conference with Texas. That's the hold up. The Longhorns aren't biting on the SEC. But the SEC would love to have BOTH Texas and Texas A&M....or either of them.

I've heard they are also interested in Virginia Tech and possibly Oklahoma.
