What started a few years ago with Penn State becoming the 11th team in the Big 10, has continued in recent weeks with Boise State aligning their trademark blue turf with the Mountain West and Colorado joining the PAC 10.

Big 12 powerhouses Texas and Nebraska are up for grabs, too. Seattle Times reporter Bud Withers says it's all about the big bucks the colleges get from TV contracts.
