The season will be fine, if not better without the Little 10 or the PacFudge conferences. Sure, they'll whine when hopefully the Dawgs walks away with a National Championship, but who cares, they made their own beds! But if anyone doesn't think its political instead of their lame financial excuse, they need to check their headgear. MAC and the Mountain West have legitimate financial excuses, but not those 2 loser conferences. What I hope is that all their players enter the transfer portal, "Beam me up Scotty!"
Except Ohio State or possibly Penn St. Those are the only two exceptions, but I would believe that if we have the season with those 3 conferences then they would join a conference for this year like ND did with the ACC this year.
That's what I've been thinking...how many of these teams are already in the top 20?
There is so much talent in these 3 conferences, and I think the Big 10 and PAC 12 will regret their decision in the long run if they play this fall.
