A surprising east coast-based college football independent could soon follow Colorado football to the Big 12 according to Extra Points’ Matt Brown — who is hearing that UConn is more likely to be the Big 12 conference’s desired 14th team than any other rumored Pac-12 or Group of Five program.

“I don’t think this cycle is over yet,” Brown prefaced before saying, “Brett McMurphy reported on Thursday that the Big 12 would like to get to an even number of teams, either by flipping additional Pac-12 schools like Arizona, Arizona State and Utah or by grabbing a G5 program like UConn, San Diego State, Memphis, or UNLV.
