The dust has started to settle and it looks like the Big 10 in now the Big 12 and vice versa. The Big 10 will finally get to have it's championship game with Nebraska now on board. Weather they pick up any more teams is speculation and rumor right now. But, the excitement of a championship game and the revenue it will bring will be spectacular. There is one catch with a championship game, it elminates champions.

The Big 10 officially added Nebraska, making their conference 12 teams strong. They can now have a titile game. Altough they say they are not in a hurry but will continue to expand the conference. The Mountain West raised their number to 10 when Boise State announced joining yesterday. They could have a championship game if they wanted to. But, it's a lot easier with 12 or more schools. So, I don't think the Mountain West is done adding teams.

USC was put on probation today. They must forfeit all games in 2004 and 2005, including the National title win over Oklahoma. Does that mean that Okalhoma wins another title? Very interesting.

The Sooners had another stellar year in recruiting. They rank between 5 and 7 on most draft boards. They added some help for next year and smooth transition in the following years. OU had injury problems and overall did not reach expectations. Injuries can have a silver lining the following year because players have gained experience. Let's look at what signing day has to offer the University of Oklahoma.

A more simple way to do the playoff system would be to have to win your conference. That would be 11 teams.
So, 6 would play in round one, producing 3 winners to face 5 other teams in round 2.8) Ga Tech vs 9) C Michigan winner vs 1) Alabama 4) TCU vs 5) Boise St6) Oregon vs 11) Troy winner vs 3) Cincinnati7) Ohio St. vs 10) E Carolina winner vs 2) Texas

Last year the OKC Thunder won 23 games. I'm curious to hear from all you fans on how many wins you think they will win this year. I am guessing 32. 9 games in one year is a big jump. The key addition is draft pick Harden, whom I think is a very solid addition and keeps the team moving in the right direction. Another key addition is last year's first round pick DJWhite. He missed most of last yaer and looked good late in the season when he saw his first action. He provides some inside hustle and scoring. This team really lacks inside presence on both ends of the floor. Let's see how much progress can be made this year. Reply to this post with how many wins you think they will get.

The best fit Minnesota could get now is Favre and a healthy arm. Even if his arm isn't 100%, if it is at least 70%, then they will improve. He provides tangibles and experience and can win. W
