    Joe Schad of ESPN reporting WVU has been accepted into the Big 12. Whether Mizzou goes to SEC or not.

    If West Virginia leaves their BCS automatic bid for the conference champion should be revoked, as West Virginia is the only legit football team left in that conference.

    I think their bid is as good as gone so WVU made a great move here. They will replace Mizzou and the Big12 will focus on Boise and one more I would think.

    I don't know if the Big XII will go after Boy-z II Men now that they have WVU. Apparently, Boise brings nothing to the table outside of football, and have terrible, awful academics. WV doesn't have very good academics, either, so that in itself may rule out Boy-z. I hope it does. I want Boy-z to wither away in a second-rate conference for eternity.

    Either way, if I'm any conference that is any way remotely interested in adding Boy-z, then they would have to meet one demand: NO MORE SMURF TURF. This is big boy football. Time to act like men, not kindergarteners.

    I am getting a notice when I click the link that ESPN is a malicious site.

    I guess it is if you are an Auburn or FL fan!

    Michael Ray Richardson says of the Big East: "ship be sinking."
