Given the fact that the big conferences have their own networks, there’s no way Missouri plays in SEC for football and basketball and the Big 12 for everything else. Same for Maryland, Rutgers, and Nebraska in the B1G. The ADs made this bed when they started chasing the money.
Should there be some sort of realignment in the Group of 5? Probably.
