The MAC already has a scheduling agreement with the Big Ten to fill in games with the advent of the 12 game season.

All I am going to say about that post is this:
Temple was never in the Big East for basketball. What the hell is this supposed reporter talking about Temple basketball in the Big East before the BE kicked Temple out?
Also, he mentions that 4 bowls are on double secret probation and says that the Silicon Valley Classic is one of them. Well, the SVC was dropped after 2004. It doesn't even exist anymore.
Finally, does anyone here really think that the Big East is thinking "we are on the verge of losing our BCS bid and the MAC is poised to take it from us????" The MAC has too much dead weight and is not under any consideration by ANYBODY for an automatic BCS bid.
Well rocket, you stole my thunder. But, these obvious errors shed doubt on the truth of the remainder of the post.
