Strong traction that PennSt OhioSt Michigan and Nebraska will all join the Big12 for the upcoming season.

If Nebraska sticks with Ohio state and Michigan, there isn't much the Big 10 can do. This is starting to make sense!

Those two wimped out. Only NU and Ia voted to play.

I’ve heard the vote you’re referring to was a false report

But they will have to fight U$C for the right to claim it!

I have to stand up for my alma mater here. USC doesn't claim a bunch of unearned championships like Alabama.

Also be warned -- this Tweeter is a Longhorn.

He's probably just laughing at his newfound power to get Big Ten fans riled up. Heck, he probably already has a hundred new followers from Nebraska.

And FWIW, he's only been on Twitter for a year-and-a-half. Not hardly with much of a resume.

You where probably right but it’s gaining traction today. Even some SEC rumors. Rumors are all we have!

For whatever reason, I actually put a bit more stock into the SEC trying to lure teams than the Big 12. But who the heck knows what's going on minute-by-minute in this insanity.

The earthquake is just further proof that 2020 sucks.

I’m waiting any day now for the plague of grasshoppers.

It’s completely crazy! At least we have something to talk about. I agree with a lot of what Frost said today.

I am predicting NU plays a Big 12 schedule this year. It would be the ultimate power play by the Big 12. If the Big 10 nixes football, look for NU to be playing a lot of old rivals.

I only got to hear about 5 minutes of Frost before a repairman arrived to fix my AC. That's about the only thing in the world right now that could have taken me away from his press conference. 100 degree days in Texas with no AC kinda take priority.

I'll catch up with the Frost speech highlights soon.

More like hat in hand this time. If Texas got a mulligan on all of that, they'd do it different a thousand times over. Probably so would Nebraska. Anywho...

 

[WeNeedMorePower]

Frost commented that NU and other schools in the B1G that wanted to play would look at all options in order to play games.
Interesting.

No one falsifies national championships like Alabama, but U$C is not blameless.....

UCF not the first school to call itself national champion

The Knights plan to raise a banner and hold a parade after their 13-0 season, and they're far from the first football program to write their own history.

Nick Saban won his first national title when his LSU team beat Oklahoma in the BCS championship game after the 2003 season. But don't tell that to USC. The Trojans claim a national title that year after being voted No. 1 in the final AP poll.

Months after that final bowl, USC became a national champion again, without even playing a down. That's because the school began claiming the 1939 national title after conducting "significant research," then-athletic director Mike Garrett said at the time. Although Texas A&M had topped most of the final polls, taken before the bowl season, USC's Rose Bowl win over Tennessee, which hadn't allowed a single point all season, gave the Trojans the nod from the Dickinson system, a formula conceived by a University of Illinois economics professor that awarded the national title from 1926 to 1940.
