They'll also get all TV slots if it happens. Nobody wants that breakaway.

Just saw an article that said SEC makes intensions clear - they want it

In my book it's already happening.**

Saw where the B12 was saying the SEC/B10 need spread the playoff wealth
Happy Dog • 05/31/25 07:24 AM ET
If the other conferences quit scheduling them, it might get their attention

I think what the SEC and B1G fail to recognize is that...

The rest of the schools would have to grow a pair and refuse to schedule...

They would essentially create another xfl/usfl. Who watches that? The rest

Gambling it'll do better on its own than as a sum of the parts.

I guess but then Tech suddenly becomes what used to be call division II.
uber hokie • 05/30/25 12:45 PM ET
They could name that league the CFL. "College Football League".

I don't think so. VT and the other 90+ schools drive on happily. **

well then let's get back to winning the ACC and win the Division II MNC **
Scream_On_D • 05/30/25 06:01 PM ET
Yep the P2 can be renamed the NFL D League **
3TechFanz • 05/31/25 07:28 AM ET
We already have less coverage. We get pushed to ACCN a lot lately
HokieAl • 05/30/25 01:04 PM ET
You could see it coming from a mile away when SEC went strictly to ESPN/ABC

Let them go! Hopefully the B1X follows.
EDGEMAN • 05/30/25 12:07 PM ET
I agree. Plenty of interest and money in the remaining FBS. I haven't

That is already the case. That's why we buy packages.....
Hokie_N_NC • 05/30/25 04:36 PM ET
Believe it or not, it would get worse. ACCN would be the only option,

The B1X gets most of the Fox slots, and the SEC gets the majority of ABC...
EDGEMAN • 05/30/25 04:26 PM ET
ACC and Big XII still get some coverage. That would go away.**
reestuart • 05/30/25 04:28 PM ET
Why would the majority of the remaining FBS be so uninteresting? 80 - 90+
40ozDistrict • 05/30/25 07:14 PM ET
Because nobody watches them now. If they get relegated
