Big 12 Expansion Candidates

The Pac 12 has decided to hold off on their expansion to 16 teams, meaning Oklahoma and Texas will remain in the Big 12 for now.

Texas A&M will not be returning to the SEC, leaving the Big 12 at nine teams for the 2012 season.

Here are some school that could be added to the Big 12:

Air Force; The Falcons are a popular contender when it comes to realignment. The Air Force has a prominent and nationwide fan base.

Boise State: The Broncos are a good fit if the Big 12 is serious about bringing in more talent.

BYU: The Cougars are in the first season of Independence, but would likely make a good fit for the Big 12. BYU has a strong fan base.

Houston: The Conference would have a shot at getting back into Houston, with Texas Tech leaving.

Notre Dame: Though it would be unlikely, a Notre Dame Big 12 expansion isn't out of the question.

Anyone we missed? Give us your thoughts on the potential conference expansion!

  1. What about now? You should do one on the expansion now (and how BYU should totally be one of the additions.
