The 2020 election will likely hinge on a few swing states, some of which just happen to be in the Big Ten’s conference footprint. In 2016, Donald Trump won largely because of his swing-state victories in Michigan, Ohio, Iowa, and Wisconsin — all football-crazy states with teams in the Big Ten. Now, the Biden campaign has come out with a new ad that blames President Trump for the empty stadiums across the land. The ad is targeted to states that have Big Ten Conference schools. Entitled “Anthem,” the ad shows empty football stadiums — several of which are in the conference — and plays a maudlin electric-guitar version of the “Star Spangled Banner.” It then proclaims that “Trump put America on the sidelines. Let’s get back in the game.”
Possibly reacting to the Biden ad, President Trump is telling the conference to play in no uncertain terms. “No, I want Big Ten and all other football, back — NOW. The Dems don’t want football back, for political reasons, but are trying to blame me and the Republicans. Another LIE, but this is what we are up against!” the president tweeted.
Biden doesn't care about the Left Coast either because it is in the bag
Meanwhile here in the PAC 12, athletes are getting help learning how to vote and are given Capri Suns and a granola bar after registering. One thing out of this is I will never try to defend the PAC as not being soft after this debacle.
Practice for the normal season starts in August and you get 15 practices to be ready to go by this weekend.
So the B1G could start by October and get in line with the Power 3 for the playoffs and bowls
You already have at least tOSU practicing
I don't see how the Pac 12 can get in there now. They aren't even thinking about it
Time to kick the PAC 12 out of the P5. Merge with the decent Big Sky programs that are moving to FBS for all I care. Sports without fans isn’t really sports to me, anyhow. Even watching it on TV. It’s like watching pick-up games with really good players.
Other than Washington, Oregon, and USC when any of them are good, it’s been a shitty football conference almost 30 years. Stanford couldn’t even sell out games when they had Andrew Luck and David Shaw should have been fired two years ago.
Without Chris Peterson, Chip Kelly/Marcus Mariota, and Pete Carroll, the PAC would be an afterthought.
Hidden text. Pelosi just fucked up our Covid Hoax and we realize we’re going to become a G6 conference if we don’t play because the PAC 12 is in a bunch of states run by Democrat pussies.

Bad for my DWAGS (rip) but good for internecine chaos.
