A small group of Big Ten university presidents have initiated a discussion to examine adding teams to the conference. They are reviewing the possible additions of Oregon and Washington to expand the conference to 18 teams, or potentially include Stanford and California to expand to 20 teams.
Yahoo published this information from columnist Dan Wetzel on Wednesday amid swirling rumors about expansion by the Big Ten that had not been substantiated up until now.
For Clemson fans, this might sound interesting, but ultimately disappointing because there doesn’t appear to be any discussion of the Tigers or anyone else from the Atlantic Coast Conference.
