Can everyone stop saying Louisville to the SEC? It makes absolutely no sense. No one wants Louisville. No one.

Hmm as a big 10 guy, I really would have liked to have just gotten Notre Dame. Not mess everything else up, and I hate Notre Dame, so it would be fun to beat them.

I have yet to hear from any PAC10 or Big10 fans, but all SEC fans that I have seen really want A&M and A&M only from the Big12.

If the SEC could get say A&M, VT, Louisville, and FSU that would be ideal.

Why would the SEC want A&M over Texas?

FWIW, here is an article from KCTV5 in Kansas City:

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- High level sources in multiple conferences have told KCTV5 that Texas and Texas A&M are looking to move to the Big Ten Conference and are in talks to join the conference, while the University of Oklahoma is planning on petitioning the Southeastern Conference to become a member of its conference.



KCTV5's sources said that Texas and Texas A&M do not have to include Texas Tech or Baylor in their plans. Sources told KCTV5 that there have already been discussions about the two schools entering the Big Ten and that the agreement could be made as soon as Thursday.



Oklahoma is currently working on petitioning to enter the SEC, but must find another university to enter the league with them, sources said. TMZ Sports has reported that Oklahoma State is likely to accept a bid to move to the Pac-10. Earlier Thursday, Colorado accepted an invitation to join the Pac-10.



KCTV5's sources also said that some Big 12 officials are saying decisions on which deals Big 12 schools take invitations by the end of the day Thursday, although the deals may not be officially announced. Big 12 officials also tell KCTV5's sources that some Big 12 office employees are planning to be without a job within weeks.



Those decisions would leave the University of Kansas, Kansas State University and the University of Missouri with Baylor, Texas Tech and Iowa State in the Big 12. The Missouri Board of Curators met Thursday and planned to meet Friday to discuss the future of Missouri sports.

Texas and A&M to the Big Ten, OkState to the PAC-10, and Oklahoma to the SEC? If that is the scenario, why wouldn't OU and OK State just stick around in a new Big 12 with like Utah, BYU, and Boise, the Kansases, Iowa State, Missouri, Baylor, Texas Tech, and still have a nice, little BCS-level conference?

It'll be between the PAC-10, and Big10 for their services. I could really see Texas and A&M bolting to the Big 10 and Oklahoma wanting in the SEC.

Who knows though
texas is afraid they'll get exposed if they move to the sec
