Can we add a "join the Japanese college football conference" option?

We need a poll that does not include the Big 10.

Or do we think Notre Dame has such love for Stanford that it will offer to join the Big 10 with Stanford? The economics of that deal would be challenging.

Division 2 and Division 3 (with their near complete absence from the west coast) are options but FCS football is not? Not that FCS is a good option. It just seems to be conspicuously missing.

Joining the Big ten is definitely the best option but it’s not realistic at this point. 

The best bet imo is for ESPN to swoop in and try to form some version of the PAC/MWC that can feature late night games. 

No reason for Stanford to drop football. They can easily settle for smaller sports program like Rice, Duke or Northwestern

Between his undergraduate at Stanford and founding of Google, Sergey Brin served an internship at Wolfram Research, located in Urbana-Champaign, Illinois:  MathWorld News: Mathematica's Google Aptitude (wolfram.com)  This internship reportedly served as a major inspiration for Google's PageRank algorithm.

As Google is held up as one of the flagship exemplars of the Stanford pioneering ethos, the connection between Stanford and the Big Ten is very real.
