Texas and Oklahoma will eventually be a part of one giant college football conference that will feature Ohio State, USC, Oregon, Michigan, Alabama, Texas A&M, Wisconsin and 20 or so others. It will be the NFL’s real minor leagues.
There is no way TCU, Baylor, Wake Forest, Duke and “the others” will be a part of that equation.
You can add Pitt to “the others.” And I am A-Okay with that! If there is to be a semi-pro Super League I want Pitt to have no part of it. In yesterday’s post I said I hoped Pitt would take two steps back if terra firma further deteriorated. With the Super League we don’t havta. We can stay put in the ACC with “Wake Forest, Duke and ‘the others’” or be part of a new conference in the Northeast. I'd be for that.
In the eight schools this reporter names as projected members of the Super League are represented the PAC 12, the B1G and the SEC. In the “twenty or so” more schools referenced we can surely include Auburn, Georgia and Florida from the SEC, PSU from the B1G, Notre Dame(?), Clemson, Florida State(?), and Miami(?) from the ACC. Take Michigan, Ohio State and PSU from the B1G and you have, what?, the L1'L? You sure don’t have the B1G. Take Nike and SC from the PAC and you could still have a PAC. Clemson is surely part of the Super League. Subtract FSU, Miami and ND and the ACC would go back to a Tobacco Road conference, which would unchain Pitt, Syracuse, and Boston College and allow a Union conference to form. "The Union forever, hurrah boys, hurrah!" I'd be all in for the Union. I’m for this Super League idea.
