Big Ten expansion news sent shockwaves throughout the American sporting world: the eleven-team Midwestern conference had reportedly sent offers to Missouri, Nebraska, Notre Dame and Rutgers to join its club.

What no one can deny is that Big Ten expansion is going to affect college football in some form and that the Big East will not remain the same. http://blog.pennlive.com/pasports/2010/05/sports_comments_big_east_will.html
