This is a fair point, appreciate it, we updated it.

@@CFBAddiction I 100% agree with this post. I know you want to build your channel, but everything can't be "Breaking News!" and "Shocking News" and "Revelation!" if it's just another team podcaster with an opinion. Monty uses gimmicks to build an audience at the expense of his credibility.

​@CFBAddiction you didn't update anything?

yea..I'm checking such channels under my 'do not suggest channel' option

Agree, was great to have him on

It's definitely a possibility. I'm in Big 10 country and I hope they don't kick out some of the lesser schools that have been in the conference forever.

Nah. It will be Clemson before GT. 😂😂😂When you write historical. I can't think of a more accurate description. They have 4 FBS Championship: 1917, 1928, 1952, 1990. They have 15 conference championship: 5: SEC and 2: ACC. I can't remember the last GT in the ACC Championship, let alone having 2.

You're right about GT they fit the big 10 perfectly. Just my opinion but I think they will take Miami over FSU because they are AAU and fit better.

I love GT and am from ATL but imma buckeye fan and no way GT getting into a new confrence until a few other big ones

@Icycamm Was that the same sentiment when UnC and GT said no 12 years ago to B1G? Because the B1G desire for those schoolss haven't changed. B1G still wants Atlanta. That means GT, because UGA and Bama aren't an option. Also notice I said schools, not teams. There is more to B1G expansion than just a football team..

@@doof1453 Someone who understands what conference realignment is about. You're right it's about more than adding schools and not teams. The Big 10 presidents will not vote to bring in a non AAU school.

Yeah. Their past reasons for going after GT and UNC have not changed.

Yup and both are AAU. Everyone saying Clemson and FSU don't understand that the Big 10 isn't going to take a non AAU school.

@@ronwilde1595but they have a non AAU school in Nebraska and turned down an AAU school in Mizzou.

@@Drollpanther Nebraska was AAU when they were accepted and later lost it. You could be right but I'll believe it when I see it.

@@Drollpanther Also they didn't turn a Missouri down for a non AAU school they turned them down because they had better options that were AAU

Dude, make a new comment already, Jesus. You only have one? One every thread? SMH, dumb

I'm surprised they didn't make the cut, but they were playing meh football at the wrong time. I'm a Northwestern alumnus and I like to see them suffer, however they have good football history and fit well. I kind of hope they are ND's plus 1 as I would totally stop at 20 creating 4 5-team divisions: Pac-5 Nebraska-Minnesota-Iowa-Wisconsin-Northwestern Illinois-ND-Purdue-Michigan-MSU tOSU-PSU-Rutgers-Maryland-Indiana

Stanford already has a winning football record versus the Ohio State Buckeyes, yet he mocks them, then he goes on to say that Olympics are unimportant....I'm sure the Congress would be glad to know that global competition is no longer a thing? If Stanford were ever allowed to hire employee players, the rest of college football best watch out.

@@MichaelSmith-xb5cp the Rose Bowl is a place where B1G teams lose. I think a lot has to do with winning the conference is the focus and the Rose Bowl is more of a celebration. If the Pac-4 dominate the conference over time it will disprove my theory, but I think once you are in the B1G grind they will all settle into the PSU tier or worse and not the UM-tOSU tier. Nebraska was a football powerhouse until they got to the B1G.

@fecat93 I think Stanford went in and won in the Horseshoe. It was a while ago, but it was definitely an upset...Cal has won in Tuscaloosa and Norman

@@MichaelSmith-xb5cp Northern Illinois won in Tuscaloosa. We(Northwestern) shut out Oklahoma 24-0 on a neutral field. Upsets happen including on the road. Once you get to know a team it is more mano-e-mano vs. scheme unfamiliarity. We can't beat the academies to save our lives yet have an even record vs. Wisconsin, Iowa, and Nebraska over the past 30 years. That being said ANY win vs. tOSU is impressive as before our 2004 victory we beat them previously in 1971 before I was born.

If you think Fox is paying for GT, you’ve lost your mind. Fox will give the presidents a list of schools they’ll approve, and the presidents work off of that.

​@@rogerwalker3409Not at all. The Big Ten COPC is not going after a FOX approved list. Are you crazy?

@@rogerwalker3409 You're a fan. You think this is all for your entertainment and basing things on the last decade of wins/losses. FOX would love to set up shop in Atlanta to broadcast B1G games whether YOU watch or not. The alumni and boosters would love to plan a trip to Atlanta in the cold months over the trash destinations in that league. Not to mention parade the brand in the recruiting grounds of the south.

@@jacobstrouble6631 😂😂😂😂no, I’m an alum, and nobody is basing anything on the last decade of wins/losses, though I can guess you’re basing your affinity on GT on the fact it’s in Atlanta and not on the fact you’ve ever been to a game at GT. I’m assuming you think the GT brings in the Atlanta market as well, correct? Fox only wants to bring in schools that help carry the TV contract, and GT does not do that, and no, it’s not the boon you think it’ll be to recruiting. The schools that can recruit there, already do, but if you think it’s going to help Purdue or some smaller school pull a kid from Georgia, then you’ve really got a lot of misplaced faith.

@@rogerwalker3409 What was your comment based on, then?

There's just one problem with your theory, the B1G wants Virginia and UNC, especially for the Nort Carolina market.

There's just one problem with your theory, the B1G wants Virginia and UNC, especially for the North Carolina market.

@ron6083 You DO realize that UNC, UVA, and GT were targets back in 2012 along with Maryland, right? That hasn't changed. The only difference now is that FSU as the main football power is going to even it at 4.

SMU? Maybe you were unaware of the FW in the DFW "major market" in which SMU is located. Since the Cowboys arrived in the late 1950s, SMU has not been able to draw fans as well, recruit as well, or compete as well as TCU, except during the Frog's doormat years from the mid-70s through the early '80s. Ask Sonny Dykes. Regardless, neither has the TV fan draw of any of the big state universities + Notre Dame that would interest either of the emerging Big 2.

7th ranked engineering school in the world. 1 out of 3 tech graduates will have a salary of a million dollars or more. More Tech grads have been to space than any other school….yeahhh…. Go big or go home.

You would be right if GT wasn't located in Atlanta. FWIW, GT and UNC were both already I voted once. They declined. The reasons for inviting them haven't changed.

I disagree that academic fit is last. The Big 10 isn't going to consider a non AAU school because they can fulfill all their expansion goals with AAU schools. Look for them to target Miami, GT, NC, and ND.

@@ronwilde1595 the big commissioner is already on the record saying that aau is not a requirement for entry that the school in question just must be a fit. As BIG grows into a p2 they have already started to prioritize the brand (football in particular) over academics. FSU is not AAU an academic fit but you can see that’s not stopping them.

@@codymacintosh2339 the problem is GT isn’t even top 3 in their home town Atlanta is a strong hold of the University of Georgia and a Florida state. Georgia Tech falls just behind Alabama as the fourth team in Atlanta.

@@adamb6370 It's not a requirement but why would they take a non AAU school when they don't have to.

Already happening to Nebraska. Four B1G teams have their homecoming games against them this year.

It's a dumb idea and bad idea. I'm not interested in watching TX a&m in the playoffs when they aren't that good. Ole Miss, several from the Big 10. Just a joke.

Lol, You're an Imbecile, Miami has a Great TV Rating and a Big League City.The U has a Great High Education Rating!!And Watch how Good there Football Teams Will be in the Near Future!!

Good luck with that one. The don't fit the B1G profile athletically and especially academically. I doubt the SEC wants them either. So all of the hooplah about getting out the ACC is for what? Where are they going?

​@@ron6083I totally agree with you they better be careful what they wish for because them and Clemson don't offer what the Power 2 is looking for. The SEC is already in Florida and SC and the Big 10 will get into Florida via Miami.

SEC already had Texas yet added another Texas school. Florida is the 3rd most populated state and growing it can support two rivals just like smaller SEC states like Alabama and Mississippi. SEC added Oklahoma and passed on Kansas in the bigger city and TV market. SEC is about football rivalries would they really want to pass on owning FSU vs UF and CU vs USC for UNC or VA? Thats a downgrade for football fans This about what Disney and Fox wanting national brands to increase ratings and MONEY. Big 10 so far has destroyed the historical Rose Bowl and the Pac 12 all in the name of acdamamics and AAU membership 😂😅😂😂😂 Nebraska has gotten dumber and worst at football in the Big 10 but richer. Maybe its because Deion is a Nole but we are smart enough to know it must the money!!!

The conviction comes from the fact that we have been given the greenlight by the BIG10 that we have a home once we leave the ACC. We don't take chances on a lark, plus only Ohio St. and Alabama have better viewership than us.

@beauroy8612 that's what I've been trying to tell people in these comments. The viewership is part of the reason North Carolina has become a desired footprint for the B1G. Plus the fact they are already AAU certified makes them a both academically and financially desirable for the B1G. People don't understand how big being AAU is for the B1G.

I think the opposite. I see FSU and/or ND as Big schools with Clemson and/UNC more of an SEC schools

@@Carlucci4380Tallahassee Florida definitely screams Big Ten. The culture and red state politics; Its so much aligns with Madison, Ann Arbor, Los Angeles Columbus. 😂

@@ronelite582saying FSU fits the B1G is like saying Notre Dame fits the SEC. And the B1G is my 2nd favorite conference.

@@ronelite582 Ijbol when I read that Los Angeles, Madison and Ann Arbor were red states politically. Those cities have voted 85 to 90 percent democrat blue since 2000. Pull up the demography map of those cities to see the blue and the red areas. LOL. No red in those cities whatsoever. Totally blue cities.

@@ssippilandelta4365 FSU and its immediate region has little to nothing culturally in common with the west coast/Midwestern contingent. They are more in line with Clemson, UVA, UGA, UNC, Auburn, VT, UF, Texas .. you know, southern contingency programs. Comparing their fit with Notre Dame in the SEC is purely asinine, and you should be embarrassed. 🤦‍♂️

That’s really all social media is. Until the Institutions, conferences and or tv networks actually announce something, it avails these podcasters to make a few bucks with their click bait content. Some do it better than others but it’s all click bait.

Possibly, just realize you’re in a minority.

We need to pick up at least a couple teams in the southern footprint. We you want to make this a national network Coast to Coast border to border. Think B1G!

Understandable given FSU’s record against the B1G.

@@LoCoVANoleand Clemson’s record against them as well. That 4-1 against OSU really bugs them.

I definitely do not want Clemson.
