For the record, I think he took back that tweet: "Decision may not come as soon as I expected." They may be taking another run at Notre Dame before deciding on other PAC teams.

USC got in because of their song girls. They have been #1 for decades.
There’s some speculation that Stanford helps land Notre Dame since all of their biggest rivals will then be in the B1G. But who really knows?

That makes some sense
That would make some sense. Stanford is a huge get for all Olympic sports and would make the BIG the forefront conference in almost every sport.
18 or 20 team conference could mean 8 or 9 games against your division and a CCG with the two division winners without the shot at repeat. Nobody could argue teams being deserving or not. Could argue that it gets a bit unbalanced to the West with Illinois, Rutgers, Indiana, and Northwerstern all to one side.
Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota, USC, UCLA, Stanford, (Washington, Oregon) would be brutal.
No Oregon please. So many better choices.
The most immediate upside to this: now we have something to talk about in the offseason!
Why do I picture Kevin Warren wiping drool from his lip after being woken from his afternoon slumber by his admin assistant telling him that that USC and UCLA are on the phone and want to talk about them joining the B1G?
Agree
What a great volleyball conference.
Can't imagine how they will schedule football games. Networks will want the big guys playing the big guys, year after year.
We may end up with unoffically a big guys section and a rest of us section. We will play Rutgers, Washington, Indiana, Minnesota, etc. and once every 10 years we will play an OSU or a Michigan or one of the others from the big guys section. I doubt LA wants Nebraska turning up at the Rose Bowl regularly.
Not clear to me that this is good for us, except that in every way other than athletics it probably is.
That changes if we ever start winning, but winning is going to become very difficult if we aren't already winning.

I'm guessing they and everyone else in the PAC were willing to throw us under the bus and not care what happened to us when they tried to pilfer half the Big 12. So, forget them.
