If the ACC collapses, does ND head to the B12 asking for the same deal?

And would the B12 give it to them? I think the latter is a definite yes.

I’m more and more thinking B1G takes FSU, Clemson, Miami & they hope ND as

Only if no other options

ACC won’t collapse, look for schools like Tulane, Rice USF to join Stanford
Stech • 12/10/23 09:16 PM ET
I'm sure ACC has already vetted them and a few more like UConn.
tarheelblue • 12/11/23 12:12 PM ET
Yeah, UConn would be a good 4th & w/ the 3 they just got, covers Mag 7
Stech • 12/11/23 12:41 PM ET
The breakaway P2 would take an independent ND with them

Okay too many of you guys are missing the big point, I don’t know why
Stech • 12/10/23 07:01 AM ET
Would the media companies agree to that?
33laszlo99 • 12/09/23 01:17 PM ET
If that happened, ESPN could drop their ACC contract and kill the ACCN.
EDGEMAN • 12/10/23 08:51 AM ET
IMHO the B1G wants ND, if they don't get them, it's a guess who they might
Stech • 12/09/23 10:11 PM ET
There are 2 primary criteria for expansion candidates.
tarheelblue • 12/09/23 10:47 PM ET
Probably so, but you’re missing the forest for a minor tree. I just through
Stech • 12/10/23 06:56 AM ET
Right. Nothing is certain. I can't even settle on a "No.1."**
33laszlo99 • 12/10/23 06:04 PM ET
The Big Ten has chased ND since the early Nineties
TerryD • 12/09/23 10:46 PM ET
I don’t believe the media companies would be willing to pay
WBGV • 12/09/23 04:22 PM ET
yet, the media partners want expanded conference schedules for more content**
daveinop • 12/10/23 06:36 AM ET
They have enough games. They want better matchups with more eyeballs. **
WBGV • 12/10/23 09:45 AM ET
All good points, Stech. But I can see growing beyond 20 if it serves a
33laszlo99 • 12/09/23 05:06 PM ET
I think the size depends on the media partner
HokieAl • 12/09/23 08:05 PM ET
The amount of money networks pay conferences for content also matters.
WBGV • 12/10/23 12:55 PM ET
Remaining three power conferences...

You lost me at Pitt. They would take GT, NCSU, or even Duke before Pitt.**
tarheelblue • 12/09/23 12:56 PM ET
I don't think the big wants or needs Pitt at all.
VTCALS72 • 12/09/23 12:33 PM ET
I think Pitt would be one of the last teams the BIG would take. They offer
HokieToph • 12/09/23 10:16 AM ET
Money drives all. Regional vs national conferences. Maybe 4 divisions in
