Yes. Disney and ESPN need to get ripped apart for this. Plus Disney is in

FL and DeSantis is not going to miss the opportunity to rip their hides, especially since FSU is the one who was harmed. There is no political downside when he can say he was just looking out for the Noles. This will get VERY UGLY for Disney. I predict they will cave - at least with regard to FSU. I was wondering if FSU would boycott the Orange Bowl last season. I wouldn't be surprised if they threaten it this year, or maybe play non-home games in Orlando. Whatever they do to harm the ACC actually helps them because ESPN will be more likely to drop the contract and FSU's damages will be lower. ** Edited by TDVick at 3/30/2024, 3:33:16 PM

If the Mag 7 form a conference, who is the 8th? Do they go bigger?
LeadingEdge • 03/30/24 01:02 PM ET
I would go with 8 and possibly look at Duke with their basketball history. **

INSIDE99 • 03/31/24 01:16 AM ET
almost; they have to have it in hand, not just see it.

FSU fight w/ ESPN is 1 reason why I think they are trying to get to Fox/B1G**

Yup; a lot of this is about the political battle with the mouse, imo.
