UConn is less than that when it comes to football. They're not even in a conference and have virtually 0 following in football, unlike BYU for instance.

This is laughable… West Virginia leaving for the ACC would be a downgrade for them given the long term uncertainty of the conference.
And the travel logistics for Oregon and Washington to be in the ACC would be challenging… to put it mildly.

They definitely would need to be proactive on that one. I can see the Big 10 and SEC pouncing if that were to happen. Best the Big-12 gets the good schools as I am not sure they could compete with the appeal of the Big 10/SEC.

As it currently stands, I dont think the Big Ten or SEC expands unless Notre Dame is involved. No other school delivers a NET MONETARY GAIN to the rest of the universities in the conference.

I highly doubt the B1G stands with just 2 PAC teams. I have to believe that they are going to give them 2 more West Coast options to limit travel. My guess is Stanford and maybe Washington. I was going to say CAL but their Ath Dept is a ****ing trainwreck with debt. Who knows...

Why don't they kick schools out? There is really no reason for Northwestern, Wake Forest, Vanderbilt to exist in a P5 conference. The rest of the conference members just subsidize them.

If the ACC were to show cracks, the SEC would pounce on FSU and Clemson in a heartbeat. Same with Miami. The Big 10 probably pounces on UNC, Duke and UVA at minimum.

Agreed. I think the Big 10 is waiting to see what happens with Notre Dame (their football TV contract with NBC expires after next season) and if (when) the ACC implodes.

They achieved AAU status this summer, the Big 10 has more big city-based schools such as Northwestern, Rutgers, UCLA, USC which is where most of Miami’s alumni live, etc. |
