Eleven Dubcast: The Big Ten is Now the B16, and The Dubcast Discusses What This Means for Ohio State and the Future of College Sports

Kevin Warren's kingdom now stretches from Coast to Coast, with what was once a Corn Belt Conference now credibly occupying five of the top 10 media markets in the country.

If you had told me a week ago that USC and UCLA would join the Big Ten, I'd have asked you to pass a glass of whatever you were drinking. And it would seem likely that the Conference will add a few more teams for good measure... Oregon? Stanford? North Carolina? Heck, Notre Dame? These days, it seems anything is possible.

The Dubcast will dissect what this weekend's bombshell announcement means for the Conference, for the Buckeyes, and for the future of the sport. We'll discuss the good and the bad, and what we think the future holds as the NCAA FBS looks more and more like a younger version of the NFL. Plus, Ask Us Anything wants to know what schools we'd add to the Big Ten, how soon we think a coach will be fired due to NIL expectations, and what fast food we'd like to feed the Founding Fathers. Oh, and an important reminder: you can ask us all kinds of fantastical things by sending us questions to

USC fine. Don't care about UCLA

Upset they didn’t add Oregon

if we are picking up any teams at all I’m glad SC was one of them. Could have been much much worse.

I’m all for it. West coast fans get to watch the mighty Buckeyes whoop up on some Cal teams. Big 16 needed to make a big move and now they have more juice to add more

What's not to love?! The B1G had to do something, to fire back at the SEC. I'd love to see them work out a way to reel in Stanford as well. ND would be great too, but who knows about that mess.
