Let's say that UNC goes to the SEC and UVa goes with them.

The B1G should most definitely be interested in Virginia Tech. In fact, I am hoping this is the outcome. Or, if it's the other way around, with UVa and UNC going to the B1G, I would think the SEC would want to move north and compete on B1G turf. And I would think the team to do that is us. In fact, I think this scenario makes more sense than both going to the SEC. But either option is fine by me. BTW, if the B1G takes Clemson and FSU, I think VT would be an awesome fit for the B1G as well. If they are going to go into the South, they better darn well want to compete in football down there. We are up to that challenge.

You sound like Rutgers angling for the B1G

If the SEC doesn't want Clemson because they have the 2nd brand in SC

The reason USC and UCLA both got invites is different from UVa and VT.

I would be absolutely shocked if both P2 passed on a Virginia school

I totally agree with this

Assuming UNC/Uva to SEC would VT take a smaller Big10 payout

Probably. The payout needs to be big enough to be competitive. But if its

Apparently Oklahoma BEGGED the SEC to take Oklahoma State.

I would not consider Oklahoma to be as strategic as NC & VA**

Where OK has the potential to become as strategic as NC or VA is if ratings

We all know there are many levels of begging. Oklahoma may have "begged"

Well obviously OU isn't turning down the invitation if UT is going.

I don't disagree that OU isn't going to turn down an invitation at that
