The Ohio State football team and the Big Ten conference have ushered in a new era of college football. With the additions of Oregon and Washington over the last week, coupled with UCLA and USC additions, the Big Ten conference is now the Big 18.
While I’m not particularly happy that the tradition and rivalry in college football are quickly fading away, these moves were inevitable as the almighty TV dollar is holding the sport hostage. Adding Oregon and Washington makes sense to help corner off the west coast, but expansion is in no way over.
