 interesting article about conference realignment and the lopsided side of it all, eg, they quote Oregon vs Oregon state - long time matchup that might not happen any more

the author quotes a Univ. of SC prof - "Imagine a world without Harvard playing Yale. ... the essence of college football is fading - if it's not gone already. It's about money and TV and putting yourself on a national stage."

That about sums it up I guess - reminds of the Daily Penn paper and the quitter Dingle of their hoops team saying he knows how he will "fix" Ivy athletics -- lol the arrogance of youth !
