The Mizzou / Ill rivarly is pale in comparison to the Mizzou / Kansas, Kansas State, Nebraska, Oklahoma rivalries. Also what does the Big10 have to offer Mizzou?

You're seriously asking what the Big 10 has to offer?

Missouri has 1 rival in the Big 12 and that would be Kansas. Their rivalry with Illinois is bigger than anything they have outside of Kansas.

They would be getting 2 of the biggest draws and 2 very well respected programs.

If the Big 12 loses Missouri and Nebraska to the Big 10 and Colorado to the PAC 10, then the Big 12 may be done. The SEC would certainly be the greener pastures for OU, OSU, Texas, and Texas A&M

The Big 12 will hardly roll over and due after losing two programs.  They'll turn around and raid other conferences.  The four you named are far more important to the Big 12 than Nebraska or Mizzou.

This is just me, but if the Big XII was forced to replace, some to consider in addition to TCU would be:

- Houston (largest Texas school not in BCS conference)

- Tulane (grabs into the Louisiana/New Orleans market)

- New Mexico

- Colorado State

- North Texas (2nd largest Texas school not in BCS, just shy of Houston)

No way in hell will Nebraska and Mizzou leave for the "Big Whateva" when all of their rivals are in the Big12.

Mizzou would leave the Big 12 in a heartbeat and they have a rival in the Big 10 with Illinois.

The Mizzou / Ill rivarly is pale in comparison to the Mizzou / Kansas, Kansas State, Nebraska, Oklahoma rivalries. Also what does the Big10 have to offer Mizzou?

About $10 or $15 million a year.

I would think more along the line of BYU, Air Force, Tulsa, Boise State...maybe Houston. I doubt the Big 12 would have any interest in North Texas or Tulane.

If that is the pool that they'd look at, then the league would be better off to fold, or stay at 9 teams.

Dennis Dodd's Big XII expansion scenario had them AND Rice being added. It was idiotic.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
