what started all this conference madness? and who decided that 16 team conferences was a good idea?

If this destroys the BCS... I might have to agree.

I am not into RL college football as much as pro football because of so many teams, but man this conference crap has got me crazy interested... OH NO I HAVE FALLEN INTO THE TRAP!!!

If ND had been part of the Big 11 this may have never happen. but really Mizzou really instigated all this by begging to leave the Big 12.

Some big wigs from the Big 10 and Pac-10 conferences played NCAA football which allowed them to realign conferences how they saw fit.

I still believe that this was a rouse to get Notre Dame into the Big 10, and the Big 10 ended up getting Nebraska instead (which might be a better move anyways). I also think Missouri has a lot to deal with in the blame, and when the Big 10 was thinking large, the PAC 10 saw its opportunity.

And the Big XII did nothing. Had they been proactive, they would have been saved. They still have a shot, but it isn't looking so good right now.

Not even close. Notre Dame, despite recent struggles, is still the most prestigious college in the country.

Maybe the most storied football program, sure, but most prestigious institution of higher education? I beg to differ.

In any case, to the topic, to quote my favorite AC/DC song, "money talks".
