You'd rather flat-out lie, publicly, than agree with me.  FFS
Nebraska > Colorado > Utah > Nevada > California.....4 states away.  There are 3 states between them. 
.
I could have drawn a line from Lincoln to Los Angeles, which goes through 4 states, but I didn't.  You're the one pirouetting across the 4 corners area.  You're a dishonest interlocutor, and that's about the worst thing I can call someone onine.


Yeah, the corner counts as a border. It's a land border too, it's not like I'm counting a border that only exists offshore in a great lake, or some such. 

Besides, you are the one that picked "states" as your unit of measurement, not me. So you go by the minimum number possible, which is two; Colorado and Arizona. Nebraska and USC are no further away from each other than Rhode Island is from Maine, by the measurement method that you elected to deploy here.

You're deflecting.  It's already been reported that USC/UCLA came to the Big Ten.
The massive difference, which you all want to sweep under the rug, is that the SEC took in 2 helmet programs that kept with the status quo (the gradually expanding your footprint method) and the B1G taking in 1 helmet program and its red-headed stepchild that is a continental mountain range and a swath of desert away. 
In an attempt to remain the SEC's peer, the B1G took in 2 programs 4 states away from its footprint.  That's extreme.  That's a wacky domino that is now mucking everything up.
.
There is nothing you can say that points the blame for this mess at anyone other than the B1G.

Good lord....you are completely off your rocker.  The "mess" is being caused by the development of super conferences.  The SEC kicked that off by pulling the two best programs from the Big 12....leaving that conference no choice but to scrounge around in the G5 for teams that don't even begin to fill the hole left by Texas and Oklahoma.

I don't like the Big Ten pulling in USC and UCLA....but you are completely kidding yourself if you don't think that they weren't simply following suit.  The "mess" isn't being caused by the abandonment of geographical conference borders.  The "mess" is being caused by power programs being consolidated in two conferences.  The SEC is responsible for getting that started.  They relegated the Big 12 to being a step below....and unfortunately....the Big Ten is following suit.

Nah, Nebraska did a great job of finishing themselves off, all on their own.  In your face, DeLoss.

That Nebraska people still feel the need to rationalize their own greedy move to the B1G and bring up Texas, really tells us every single thing we need to know about the motivations behind that move, and the guilt you still feel about it.

Fuck that chicken, fuckboy.

yup, would have been a much more admirable thing to wait until now to wait for the Horns to sell out to the SEC SEC SEC and then scramble to find a spot

the Horns have proven they were willing to shit on their conference mates to grab whatever for themselves

and that is what the Huskers did to protect themselves

same/same

neither are better than the other

Huskers just had better foresight than Douchebag DeLoss
