After the Big East got word TCU would not be joining and moving to the Big 12, the Big East commissioner has publicly set out to add six more teams. That would mean just six football-playing schools would remain when this move is complete. The Big East expansion plan could include service academies Army, Navy and Air Force in addition to East Carolina, Central Florida, Memphis, Temple and current Big East member Villanova, which plays in the Football Championship Subdivision. Army, Navy, and Air Force might just be for football only. The Big East will need to at least add 2-4 more teams to keep an automatic qualifying spot in the BCS.
