Vanderbilt, Indiana, Maryland, Illinois, Purdue, Rutgers, Northwestern cut in 32-team super conference scenario

According to longtime college sports radio host Greg Swaim, the SEC will have just one exclusion from a proposed 32-team super conference: Vanderbilt. The Big Ten, on the other hand, would lose six schools: Indiana, Maryland, Illinois, Purdue, Rutgers, and Northwestern.

"Of course the entire SEC, other than Vandy will get an invite into the new Super League, which already puts us right around the 32 member number that's being talked about," Swaim wrote.

"The B1G has the most dead weight, but also pays the most, due to most of their teams having huge enrollments and living alumni bases that watch their alma maters play, and then they all subscribe to the BTN. That being said, that doesn't mean as much to the Middle Eastern group wanting to own the Super League. With the B1G it'll bear watching if those with invites all go, as they have all of that research money and endowments different from the other power conferences."

Syracuse, Duke, Wake Forest, Boston College, Stanford, Cal, and SMU would be the cut ACC schools, while ASU, TCU, Baylor, Houston, and Cincinnati would be the Big 12 teams left behind.

Super Conference would be a sign of the end times of college football

With how much money a Super Conference would bring -- we're talking every major school having even more backing through private equity -- it'd be the end of college football as we know it. 32 teams is quite literally the number of NFL franchises there are, so the sport would officially become a minor league.

The markets with major universities luck out, like the South, the West Coast, the Midwest, and the Heartland. It'd be a boon to the local economies involved, that's for sure.

Does it happen? Not anytime soon. It almost feels too good, or bad, depending on the viewpoint, to be true in general.
