Delany’s Dozen. Big Ten Expansion has been the hot topic during this brief college football sabbatical. We tossed out our (reasonable) suggestions awhile ago. But we hope the Big Ten goes hard at Texas and Nebraska; let chaos reign. Dan Shanoff has an interesting take and thinks Navy as a football only member makes perfect sense. His thesis is built upon the idea that a championship game isn’t a factor for Big Ten expansion. Whether it is or isn’t, we think it is, there will be a Big Ten Championship Game if the conference expands. No money will be left on the table.
U Inspired Dynasties. Conquest Chronicles serves up some spicy food for thought. Was the Trojan’s “modern-day” dynasty on par with Miami’s? If everything else is a push we’ll take Miami solely for the Vice City nightlife. Although, one thing we’ll point out is Miami had 3 consensus and 1 split Media National Championships, while USC had only 1 and 1.
Oregon State and TCU will rumble in Jerah’s House to kickoff their seasons. Both schools will benefit from a big payday, Jacquizz and James Rodgers get to play a game in their home state of Texas and TCU gets another big name BCS school on their schedule. Everything is coming up Milhouse. Oregon State will also play Boise State in 2010, who will play Virginia Tech.

Everything is definitely not a push when it comes to comparing those dynasties. USC has had(is having? If you still think they are up there) a great run, but UM did it for a decade and like you said won 4 titles in the span. And that was under the old system. If the BCS were around maybe they would have had a chance in some of the years where they didn’t play for the title. Miami changed the way the game was recruited and played. If USC had more titles, playing under a system where you have to be in the top 2 and then win the next one, then I would give them the nod. In terms of controversey, they are somewhat on equal footing, but the NCAA is taking its sweet time on giving us the news about Bush and USC is not viewed with the nagativity that Miami was. The one thing USC has in its favor is that it has done it in an era where all of CFB is more competitive and athletic and they definitely deserve some props for that.
