Would the B1G raid the SEC?

Don't laugh, but I could see A&M & Missouri being so unhappy with Texas joining the SEC they could reach out to the B1G and I think the B1G would accept.

Why?

1. A&M & Missouri fits the AAU profile
2. A&M is in Texas and is a name brand
3. Would make Nebraska happy (Texas Recruiting)
4. The athletic money is basically equal
5. The research money would make the academic folks happy at both schools

If I am the B1G it makes perfect sense to launch a pre-emptive raid.

Of course I am not sure the SEC would be too broken up about it either. It would open two more spots for schools that fit the SEC profile better in states like North Carolina or even Virginia. Trading Missouri and A&M for Texas and Oklahoma is a win for the SEC still, just not as big a win because adding A&M would help the B1G stay competitive and foothold in the state of Texas.

If the big ten gets off their high horse I see hem adding Missouri. They may try to get aTm, but that would be such a bitch move by them. Why wouldn’t they lord this move over UT

A&M isn’t going anywhere. We’re going to b*tch about dealing with those clowns in Austin off the field, but we aren’t worried about them on the field. OU I’m completely fine with. I like them not being in the conference for recruiting purposes, but I get where college football is headed.

I'm not a fan of adding Texas and Oklahoma as we currently stand, but I'd be more than happy to trade Missouri and A&M to the Big Ten if it means we get OU and Texas.

I doubt that with our clown commissioner Kevin Warren we have now. He's all about himself not the Big Ten. I be surprised if Big Ten got any new members now. Just this morning this clown said he wouldn't have changed anything about how he handled 2020 year. If he can't admit he failed last year. He certainly won't do anything to help the Big Ten in membership. IMO, Big 10 & Pac 12 should join together as a super conference and SEC & Big 12 join together as a super conference. It be like the NFL,NFC and AFC but it's bound to happen eventually anyways. They can start in 2025.
