TCU likely to join the Big East

TCU likely to join the Big East - 11/29/10 12:42 PM

Probably figured playing in the Mountain West they'd never get a legit shot at a BCS title.
Boise State has got to be thinking, WTF. We leave the WAC to join a better MW conference, then Utah and now likely TCU leave. I wonder how long before Boise State joins another conference, either the Big East or Big 12?
It is just a matter of time before the Big East goes to 12 teams so they can have a championship game.
I've got to think the Big 12 will add teams to replace Nebraska and Colorado as well. They want the $$$ so they can continue to have a conference championship game.

Likely will compete better than our fine Wa schools.

There are some who thought they already competed in tough conferences grin

I'm suprised the Big 12 didn't consider TCU. Must be some bad blood after not being asked to join the Big 12 when the Southwest Conference dissolved.

Ah, big deal. The pac-10 still holds 2 of the top 5 teams...

Makes perfect sense. Nothing says East like Fort Worth, Texas....
