Charles Fischer Administrator No. 2 Share Posted July 25, 2022 Great article....great facts and logic. If we are discussing how nuts it is for travel with the ACC, then traveling to UCF or West Virginia in the Big-12 would have been the same, as would Rutgers, Maryland and Penn State in the B1G. It is all bad for minor sports in terms of travel, but if we have to look at the ACC, the money might make sense. Read that article above and see if you are "un-sold" on the Big-12?

Makes me wonder if the narrative of B12 superiority is, at least partly, being spread by folks hoping to spook a defection of a few teams and start the chain reaction of the PAC’s implosion. Sort of a run on the market, if you will, so you can get access to assets you would have otherwise never had. Makes me feel that standing pat is OK.
