It's a done deal. The University of Colorado will announce at an 11 a.m. Friday press conference that the school will leave the Big 12 and join the Pac-10. Multiple sources confirmed the deal to the Camera early Thursday, and league officials are scheduled to be in Boulder on Friday for the announcement.

That potential bonanza could open the possibility of the two division champs from one league playing for the national title, and it would eliminate the need for a conference championship game. "The Pac-10 doesn't believe in a championship game," the coach said. "And coaches in the Big 12 don't like it anyway." I thought OU would like conference champion... 2. Texas and ATM will meet today about "preserving natural regional rivalries" By Bill Frisbie The meeting today between athletics department officials of Texas and Texas A&M is with the intent of preserving the two team's natural regional rivalries and is not about breaking apart or maintaining a non-conference game between the two schools, according to a trusted source with historic ties to the Texas Men's Athletics Department. The heart of any new conference schedule will remain the traditional rivalries between Texas, Texas A&M and Texas Tech, with Oklahoma and Oklahoma State added to that mix. The source also said that both Nebraska to the Big Ten and Colorado to the Pac-10 are "done deals". (UPDATE: The Pac-10 just issued a press release announcing Colorado as the 11th member of the league, so it is literally a done deal with the Buffaloes.) Colorado, weary of the legislative forces that thrust Baylor into the Big 12 in the 90s, wanted to preempt anything the Texas legislature could do this time around to compel the Pac-10 to make a choice between the two schools, the source said. Further, those at the highest levels of Baylor's administration believe the Buffs' move has sunk the Waco school's chances of landing in the Pac-10. Expect that Baylor officials and sympathetic lawmakers will continue to make noise about blocking a potential move of the state's big three programs, but as we reported yesterday, the political power and will is simply not there for the Bears to get another free ride. The source reiterated that what Texas wanted and expected up until this week was that the Big 12 would remain intact. That no longer appears to be an option. Texas/ATM must go to the same conference (no SEC) 3. Texas President Powers contacts regent regarding conference realignment By Bill Frisbie According to a source with historic ties to the Men's Athletics Department, Texas President Bill Powers has contacted each member of the Texas Board of Regents individually and will continue to do that as this realignment situation unfolds (so there is an informal, unofficial conversation going on to keep the Regents in the loop but no official Board meeting scheduled as of yet), including today's meeting between Texas and Texas A&M athletics department officials.
