Jesus that's an tease.


Yes, but it sure would be easy to update that expensive spot by adding our Uconn logo, Storrs, the Health Center etc to the mix.

I know I am reading dubious tea leaves,, but it is clear that Uconn provides a missing element for the B1G..

You're not reading leaves, you're smoking them.

At least we've got the contiguous thing going.

I think the Rent would rise up with the block C followed by Cabellas and the VIP room

It starts with The Rose Bowl and the Rockies, it could end with MSG, The Rent, and the Green Mountains.
But no, notice how the camera angle does a 180 at the end, meaning, The End.
They show GM headquarters for Michigan? A bankrupt company? And MSU gets about 0.5 seconds.

A revised video would finish with UConn nestled in between Boston and NYC.

If realignment is at an end, I'll be shocked.

If Lansing had an iconic skyline I'm sure they would have included it.

As for the Renaissance Center, I don't strongly associate the Renaissance center with GM since they haven't always owned it (and besides, it's not just GM that is/was bankrupt). But, I don't in any way associate it with Ann Arbor, so I thought that was a little odd.

Think they just showed the Renaissance Center to highlight Detroit, like they did w Chicago, Philly, DC & NYC.

How they missed Indy and Louisville, I haven't a clue. ;)

Actually now that I think about it, a nod to Indy for hosting championship games would have been pretty cool.

UConn, I think you have yet to win won here in Indy. Next year, perhaps?

All of the B1G campuses seem to be located between the forests, even in the Plains states (I think they show every tree in Nebraska). Notice what isn't forested when the camera pans out at the end? It sure looks like UVa and UNC to me. Could that be some foreshadowing?

Well, the northern part of Ct is wide open too.

If the B1G is aiming to control Appalachia, then yes, those clearings are a foreshadowing.
