Lots of people over the last decade saying "We'll be fine" and
"VT will always have a landing spot" aren't saying that anymore. They always assumed that the SEC would take one Va. school, and the B1G would take the other. Welp, that's no longer the case. Texas and OU to the SEC was a game changer and USC and UCLA just makes it worse.
The fact that Stanford and Cal have no place in the P2 right now should make UVa nervous.
The fact that Oregon and Washington have no place in the P2 right now should make VT nervous.
The fact that states like Washington and Arizona have neither school in the P2 should make both schools nervous.
VT needs to get its mojo back in football STAT. As of now, I think we should assume (even if we want to argue otherwise) that UVa is ahead of us in the expansion candidate horse race. And not being the top candidate in medium size state is not good spot.

I still think it would take 12 schools to dissolve the conference.
