Good morning and happy Saturday, BBN.
The SEC made waves a few weeks ago when they gobbled up Big 12 powers Texas and Oklahoma in a power move that brought both institutions to the SEC. As the Big 12 flailed and the SEC expanded, the remaining Power 5 conferences had to be nervous about being poached next.
The Big 10, the ACC, and the PAC 12 have discussed banding together in an effort to stem off the SEC, create rivalries among their own conferences, and earn mega-TV bucks on their own.
This was inevitable and many wondered when something like this would happen.
