Umh, neither Temple nor Syracuse has "very good football". In fact, just a few years ago, Temple almost dropped football because it cost too much and they were awful. Combined, the two schools have 1 bowl appearance of any kind in the past 10 years and only 1 winning record in football.

The Big East kicked Temple out for football just a few years ago.  I don't see the Big East welcoming them back so quickly.

The Big Ten is going to look at four schools.   They are:  Rutgers, Notre Dame, Pitt, and Mizzou.  The Big Ten's choice order will be as follows: 1) ND, 2) Mizzou, 3) Pitt or Rutgers.    My guess is will be either Pitt or Rutgers as ND isn't going and Mizzou will probably stay in the Big 12.  If somehow another team gets into the mi, it will be UConn or West Virginia (would be higher on the list if their academics - which matters to the Big 10 - weren't awful).  Syracuse is somewhere beyond all of those schools as they provide nothing in football, do not generate a media market, and are good in an area where the Big 10 doesn't need help (basketball).

If the Big East has an opening for a football team, they will likely look at the following schools.  Memphis, Central Florida, and Temple.   There really isn't any other real choice for them is they don't want to look to the Mountain West for another team.  Actually, of that group, the choice is obvious.  Memphis.  Besides, one 8 win football season isn't going to atone for the hideous history of their football program, to say nothing of its' non-eistant fan base.  Central Florida isn't there yet. 

Look for Conference USA to take Louisiana Tech from the WAC.  And then the Eastern US is stabilized.

In the West, the PAC-10 is making some noise about going to 12 teams.  This will cause much more turmoil.  While they may make noises about trying to pick off Colorado or Teas, they are really looking at the following schools.  Boise State, Utah, New Meico, UNLV, Colorado State, Nevada, Fresno State, Hawai'i, and BYU.  You can immediately drop Hawai'i (distance and doesn't raise the national profile of the conference), BYU (the PAC-10 schools won't have them in their conference - to say nothing of the students at those schools, and the PAC-10 schedules non-football games on Sundays - BYU won't play on Sunday).  Utah is the obvious choice.    For the second, I'd say they take Colorado State over Nevada.

The Mountain West would be down to 7 teams and would etend bids to Nevada and Boise State.  This will cause trouble for the WAC, which will have lost Three schools (including Louisiana Tech to C-USA).  Theres not many places they can go for more teams, unless they can make an argument to some Sun Belt schools that massive travel epenses is worth it to play with Hawai'i or San Jose State.  Perhaps they can pick off North Teas (doubtful) or convince Idaho State to up to FCS D-1 (more likely). 

Now if MIzzou decides to jump to the Big 10 instead of staying in the Big 12, then everything gets thrown in the air.  But I don't think that scenario puts Temple anywhere but where they are now (MAC football A-10 basketball). 

Bottom line:  If the Big 10 epands, it shouldn't impact the A-10.  And it will likely not really hurt anyone too badly.  If the Pac-10 epands, it will probably mean very bad news for the Mountain West, BYU (who will be left there), and especially for the WAC (who will probably lose at least one, but perhaps as many as three of its best programs in just about any Pac-10 epansion scenario.

Missouri prides itself as a Southern school (SEC) or SW school (Big 12), it does not view itself as a Mid-West school (Big 10) and is not moving to the Big 10.  As to Syracuse, it does have a roster of college and NFL hall of fame alum, has an incredible sports facility, and is willing to spend money on its program (i doubt Temple has the will to spend money to have a sustained program).  I am not sure that people evaluate the TV market by the location of Syracuse, but rather the location of its alum - (for eample, I really doubt NBC poured that type of revenue into Notre Dame because it viewed South Bend as a must have market versus, the locations of the alum and ND wannabes in Chicago, NYC and LA).  With that said, other than NYC, where do Syracuse folks go after they graduate?

NH:  I don't mean to disagree too strongly, but Mizzou has long wanted to move to Big 10 and in no way sees itself as Southern School in any respect.  Worked for AD for 5 years, am an alum and active with former athletes and administrators,  and this has been something going back to Dan Devine.  They feel football would be stronger with regular appearances with Michigan, OSU, Purdue, Illinois (although that has been on and off).  Also, Mizzou sees itself (rightly or wrongly) as an elite academic institution among the Big 12 (no disrespect to other schools) and the Board has long thought the academic rep of Big 10 was always better than orginal Big 8.  As long as Kansas is still on the schedule, then I could see them in Big 10 easily, but not as a first choice.  There has never been a great affinity for playing Okie State, K-State, Colorado and when Mizzou was terrible only the Oklahoma and Nebraska games brought the revenue.

One outlier which has not been mentioned here but has popped-up over the years is TN. Also, ND was offered Big 10 membership about 12 years ago and they declined because they had just signed the NBC deal which is almost up.

As a GW and Minnesota grad I thought I would weigh in on this subject.  Although I think the Big 10 would bend over backwards to get ND, the team that no one mentions is Iowa State (who Minnesota is playing in the Insight.com Bowl).  Big state school with good history of both football and basketball.  It seems to me that Iowa State has never been a great fit in the Big 12 since the Teas schools joined the conference in 1994.

GRB, I am a man of few original thoughts, I got my information from the ESPN or CBS Sportsline article discussing the Big 10 epansion chatter which indicated that Missouri would not likely be the school to move.  It pointed out (from the eyes of some boosters obviously) that the Missouri-Illinois football game in St. Louis contract is up after net season and the Missouri boosters are not upset if it is not renewed.

As a Minnesotan myself, I know my friends from Iowa State hate, loath, avoid and despise anything even remotely connected with Iowa (such as winning and success and coaches who don't get shitfaced at frathouses), so I doubt they would be interested in joining the Big Televen (or that Iowa would be willing to help with the invite).  Plus, I think conference epansion would rather look east to big markets rather than to the thriving metropolis of Ames.  The Big Ten might be better off booting Minnesota out (you lose a decent basketball program that loves to cheat as well as the worst college football head coach in the country) and trying to just steal two from the eastern side of the conference or one eastern school and trading Missouri.

A few responses.

The Big 10 epansion will be about football, not basketball.

1) The Big 10 would be crazy to take Iowa State (and I actually root for them in the Big12 north).  Their football program is about as futile as Temple's and their basketball program is average.  Do they have any traditional rivalries with anyone other than Iowa?

2) Syracuse is a joke in football.  Has been for years.  Has eactly one decent win in the entire decade (Auburn, at home, in 2001).  The do have a large alumni base in NYC, but I'm not sure that it really gives you the market there as much as Rutgers would.  Syracuse is also a private school (only Northwestern is in the Big 10).  Does having Syracuse in the Big 10 help the other Big 10 teams recruit top players in  New England/Mid Atlantic?  Not really, Penn State has got them covered.  Does Syracuse bring much of a new fan base to the Big 10?  Not really as Syracuse sports are pretty much ignored in the big cities of the Mid Atlantic/New England area already (these are pro-sports towns).  Does a potential Syracuse membership in the Big 10 help Syracuse recruit against other eisting Big 10 teams?  Absolutely.  So Syracuse really doesn't bring much to the table in football.    They do help in basketball, but that really isn't the point of Big 10 epansion.  

3) Tennessee isn't going anywhere.  Teams in the SEC don't leave (Tulane and Sewanee in the 50's did).  The rivalries are too strong and the money is so much better than anyone else.  Besides, Tennessee's academics, while not terrible, don't really reach the level of the Big 10.

4) While Mizzou may wish to leave the St Louis venue for the Illinois game, I'm not sure they want to end the series.  Mizzou doesn't fit perfectly anywhere, but could play anywhere.  The question for them will be, where can we recruit, compete, and maintain ecitement.  They probably can do better in the Big 10 with competitiveness, but recruiting (they recruit a lot in the Big 12) may be a problem if they move.  The only real issue for Mizzou is that it isn't necessarily a step up or down for them.  Its just a sideways move and a risky one at that.

5) Minnesota isn't getting booted out of the Big10.  Every conference needs an average team or two.

wow, talk about a slam on Cincinnati and a huge slap in the face at WVU for academics.  Yet, I had heard years ago that WVU was one of the nation's leaders in Rhodes Scholarships.  I looked it up and WVU-24; Hopkins 14; GU 23; Notre Dame 14.  I do not want to mention GW - which apparently would not be able to host a Rhodes Scholar pick-up hoops game - shoot for that matter a game of horse which requires two people.  Anyway, why the slap at WVU in this link?
