Former Colorado Kicker Says She Was Raped

[nl5xsk1 0]

A team that's good enough to shake up the conference wouldn't be available to just jump into the Big XII. I mean, look at how much of a clusterfuck it's been to get Miami, BC and VATech to jump to the ACC. The only possibility would be Notre Dame, and like you said, there's no way that would happen. There's only a handful of teams that could make a real impact on the conference, and most of them aren't going anywhere.

 

Having said that, though, a team like Colorado State would benefit from getting the call up to a bigger conference. They've been a big fish in a small pond for the last decade or so, and would only be helped by playing against tougher teams. The first few years would be rough (like 1, 2, 3 win seasons) but in time they'd get better recruits and be able to hang with the big boys. As it is now, they get about half of the best Colorado players and do better with the California natives than CU does. Put them in the Big XII and they'd start to get some of the good ol' boys that don't get into their state universities (e.g. the Nebraska players that don't go to Lincoln, etc.). Am I biased b/c I went to CSU? Hells yeah. But would I love to see them replace CU in that conference. Hells yeah.
