UCF would be a good fit and give the big 12 a presence in one of the biggest football states, so that would make sense.


I guess the geography consideration is out the window already with West Virginia. The old Big 12 made a lot more sense geographically.





Even if UCF and Louiville were added, theres no logical way to split divisions. You'd have the Big 12 West and Big 12 East, Split by the SEC

Yeah by the big 12 adding WVU, that threw geography out the window as something to hold them back from inviting a school. Besides in this day and age geography doesn't matter that much anymore for power conference schools that have a lot of money and access to flights.

When it comes to conference expansion the biggest thing to me is expanding the conferences market.

UL is not leaving the ACC for the Big 12, for multiple reasons.
