       Nuclear bomb of a realignment move. Texas and OU I could have
       told you would happen 10 years ago. This today I did not expect.
       Brave new world we're in now guys. I don't think the Big Ten is
       done either as a 16 team Big Ten has the basketball team making
       midweek trips out to Nebraska, Illinois, Wisconsin, etc. in the
       middle of the week. That doesn't seem feasible long term.
       This is just the first HUGE domino in another set of moves.

       It makes no sense, but it’s official.
       NGL, makes it way harder for me to care about Stony Brook going
       to the CAA knowing these moves are what actually matters and are
       happening in the background.

       This whole creation of two new super conferences suck… B1G
       and SEC will probably expand to 20 each. This is the end of
       regional rivalry. It feels like only a matter of time before
       these two power conferences go on their own leaving ncaa. Div1
       will definitely break up to two divisions soon. May be 3. The
       two super conferences on their own, then the second group will
       include rest of P5, G5 and hopefully some of the top of fcs. And
       finally the NECs.

       that, and also since each conference is split in two, its really
       4 conferences, just leveraging the top-level name.
       query- is it not a matter of time before... oregon.... or
       arizona for example start jumping into this superconference?

       Agreed. Just a matter of time. I read on twitter Washington and
       Oregon have already approached B1G. ND is thinking what do do
       with their major rivals are now in B1G. SEC probably eyeing
       Arizona state and Arizona. Despite the great academics I don’t
       see Cal and Stanford that attractive to B1G because they are not
       big time in money sports FB and BB.
       It’s going to be fascinating to see what happens. I don’t think
       there will be a merger or alliance between Pac12 and Big12.
       Either Utah, Colorado etc. will join Big12 OR Kansas, TexasTech
       etc. will join Pac12. One of these two conferences will be done
       as power conference.
       If the ACC didn’t have the GOR till 2036, I think we would have
       seen them decimated by now. SEC probably wants Clemson, then one
       of the Florida schools.. Miami or FSU, perhaps VT to get into
       DMV area. BIG wants UNC, UVA, GTech etc. May be GOR won’t matter
       for the super conferences to break up ACC.

       that'd be ironic if colorado went back- where they had more
       success in the big12.  many years ago.
       it's starting to look like the country will literally split in
       three- a northern superconference and a southern; leaving the
       rest (the big12, pac, and ACC and the then the G5).
       as a fan of college sports, its sad to see the old rivalries and
       conferences all busted up.

       Yes.. acronym for Grant of Rights… where the conference owns the
       rights to the team’s TV/media rights until a time. Or something
       like that. I don’t know/understand the details lol…but
       apparently even if you move to another conference, the tv rights
       still belong to the previous conference. It’s complicated to say
       the least lol
