Message: [QUOTE="DarthGrumpy, post: 4016409, member: 2141"] The B1G and PAC are tight, not sure if the B1G would raid them. If they did, it won't be just USC and UCLA. Consider the fact that teh B1G also highly values research dollars (see Johns Hopkins) and market reach (see Rutgers). That makes Stanford a major target (athletic brand, research and market in SF) along with U Washington (big time research dollars and a solid football brand), second tier would be Oregon (brand and Nike dollars), Cal (research dollars) and Arizona State (research dollars and market). Not sure if they would also try to 'connect' their conferences, i.e. add Colorado and Utah to get there. [/QUOTE]
