🐓 or 🥚 poll: PAC gone, B12 a *shell of what it used to b, ACC FSU Clemson
Stech • 04/17/24 09:43 PM ET
Athletic Conferences have been changing membership ever since they were
WBGV • 04/18/24 11:16 AM ET
I don’t see why the ACC can’t survive if B12 lost 5 top football schools.
Stech • 04/18/24 02:10 PM ET
I guess the PAC technically survived as a conference,
WBGV • 04/19/24 11:37 AM ET
I don't consider the PAC surviving, I do consider the B12 surviving with 5
Stech • 04/19/24 12:18 PM ET
Difference is that the Big 12 added really good schools, power worthy.
HouClone • 04/19/24 02:29 PM ET
Memphis used to be Memphis State, they are a State school, they have
Stech • 04/19/24 03:44 PM ET
The PAC 12 defectors.......
2hhoop3 • 04/19/24 02:36 PM ET
The Big 12 survived because they were able to get better TV media rights
WBGV • 04/19/24 01:00 PM ET
ESPN has lost the B1G and B12 🏀, so they have room for tier 2 too.
Stech • 04/19/24 01:39 PM ET
The Big 12 reached a six-year extension with ESPN and Fox in October 2022.
WBGV • 04/19/24 03:08 PM ET
You mean the same reason Texas, Texas A&M, Oklahoma, Nebraska and Missouri
Stech • 04/19/24 03:25 PM ET
I agree **
HokiesACC2004 • 04/19/24 10:09 AM ET
I agree. if the media contract is plus or minus the B12 contract,
Big12 guy • 04/18/24 04:51 PM ET
Louisville and Pitt would still be attractive to the XII.
obguthr • 04/19/24 05:41 AM ET
The ACC could absolutely survive a Mag 7 exodus. They have to really want
33laszlo99 • 04/18/24 02:26 PM ET
The ACC will make it, but it won't be the ACC anymore

Vienna_Hokie • 04/18/24 10:05 AM ET
Agreed, but I would also add rich fans with weird priorities...

Old Line Hokie • 04/18/24 10:09 AM ET
Agree!**
RJHokie • 04/18/24 04:52 PM ET
Recency bias. The original greed was ACC stealing from Big East
HokieAl • 04/18/24 10:41 AM ET
The original greed was the Big East excluding PSU
Tailgate Guru • 04/18/24 02:28 PM ET

Big 8 raided the SWC way before that

I sorta liked the old SWC.

Who is the biggest leader in greediness in your mind?**
Stech • 04/17/24 09:49 PM ET
Texass**
RJHokie • 04/17/24 09:51 PM ET
Why do you say that?**
Stech • 04/17/24 09:52 PM ET
They never have enough money and rarely win national championships
RJHokie • 04/17/24 09:55 PM ET
The "best" answer !**
FLKEYSHOKIE • 04/17/24 09:47 PM ET
Same to you, who is the biggest leader in greediness?**
Stech • 04/17/24 09:51 PM ET
Very close between the SEC and Big 10 Conferences !**
