EXPANSION: Big Ten Turned its Back on Florida State? Do Indiana and Purdue Have Fighting Chance?

Locked On Big 10 – Daily College Football & Basketball Podcast

Is the Big Ten ignoring Florida State and an expansion opportunity to add the Seminoles to the conference? Does the same go for Clemson regarding any college football realignment talk? Why do we ask? There has been recent chatter that those schools, who are trying to legally leave the ACC and their media deal may be huddling with the Big 12.

WHAT IS FSU DOING?

At Locked on Big 10 we have long thought Florida State and the Big Ten are a match made in heaven. So what gives? Keep in mind, while Florida State and Clemson's lawsuits and counter lawsuits are on going versus the ACC, any school wishing to leave the ACC in time for the 2025 college football season must make such an announcement by August 15. That is one month from today. So naturally conversations between schools and conferences must be going on behind the scenes.

HAVE THEY LOST THEIR MINDS?

But there is still one big question. Why would FSU and Clemson fight tooth and nail and spend so much money to get out of the ACC just to go to the Big 12 which barely pays its member schools a few million bucks more than the horrible ACC Media Grant of Rights Deal? Why go from one bad deal to another when all of the money is in the Big Ten and SEC? We will try to figure this out together with some ideas on Locked on Big Ten.

DO INDIANA AND PURDUE HAVE A SHOT?

And while the Big Ten is busy expanding and realigning with bigger and better football programs, do smaller schools like Indiana and Purdue have a fighting chance? We will look ahead to their respective 2024 college football seasons.

It's all right here on Locked on Big Ten with Craig Shemon.
