Reports of Big Ten expansions surface; Irish looking to remain with ACC
SOUTH BEND, Ind. – As reports broke Saturday night that the Big Ten was again on the verge of expanding, this time to 14 teams, Notre Dame athletic director Jack Swarbrick did not want to look too far ahead.
Rutgers and Maryland are reportedly in serious discussions with the Big Ten to leave their respective conferences.
“If this occurs, the timing is a surprise to me,” Swarbrick said after a 38-0 Irish win. “Not the fact of it, but the timing of it is a bit of a surprise.”
