Big Ten, Pac-12 to enhance rivalry
NCAA Football Betting Lines
12/28/2011 -
Park Ridge, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Big Ten and the Pac-12 have a long, rich
rivalry, and the two power conferences announced Wednesday they will schedule
more games against each other in all sports.
Details of the collaboration still have to be ironed out, but the objective
has been made clear.
"Through numerous conversations over the past several months with stakeholders
from the Big Ten and Pac-12, we decided there would be great value in building
upon the history and collegiality that exists between our member institutions,
by initially committing to an increased frequency of play between our schools
in all sports," said Pac-12 commissioner Larry Scott.
The expansion of the football feud will call for each school to play an
opponent from the other conference every year, with the plan set to start in
2017, though it could be sooner.
The history between the conferences dates back to over a century, when they
met in the inaugural Rose Bowl Game in 1902. They have met in Pasadena on 62
occasions, including 55 consecutive meetings from 1947-2001 before the BCS
system changed the landscape of college football.
Other sports, such as men's and women's basketball, could schedule inter-
conference games more frequently as early as the 2012-13 academic year.
"We believe that both conferences can preserve that sense of collegiality and
still grow nationally by leveraging our commonalities in a way that benefits
student-athletes, fans and alumni. This collaboration can and will touch many
institutional undertakings, and will complement our academic and athletic
missions," said Big Ten commissioner James E. Delany.
