They will in all probability get 5 in, But hey, it seems to be the nature

of the beast. With only two at larges, they wouldn't pick the best team, they would pick some name brand blue blood that brings the ratings. It still gives the networks to pick an Ohio State if they happen to have a down year.

I think the p2 should just get it over with, and expand the playoffs

Need to have an honest conversation about the SEC & Big 10
ValveHokie 11/21/24 06:29 AM ET
Yeah, and why exactly is that? And who decided it was going to be that way?**
Baltimore_Hokie 11/21/24 09:47 AM ET
Follow the money is probably the answer to who decided question.**
VTHokie2000 11/21/24 11:38 AM ET
Exactly. My point was that it doesn't REALLY have to be the way it is.**
Baltimore_Hokie 11/21/24 12:00 PM ET
At this point, do any of the non-P2 conferences have any power to change
VTHokie2000 11/21/24 12:07 PM ET
The ACC and Big 12 have already been flushed down the toilet by Disney/FOX.

I agree with you. It is possible those leaders would rather have crumbs
VTHokie2000 11/21/24 12:37 PM ET
Disney and FOX need MORE content, not less. They're not going to tell-
Baltimore_Hokie 11/21/24 02:48 PM ET
I do think it is entirely possible Disney and FOX could tell the non-P2
VTHokie2000 11/21/24 04:39 PM ET
Take note that the B12 is attempting to separate basketball content
Big12 guy 11/21/24 02:57 PM ET
I like it. It's vindictive as hell

I am picking up what you're putting down here, brother man!**

Poster below said ESPN’s Sports Center said ACC & B12 none basically in 26.
Stech 11/20/24 03:38 PM ET
It was McElroy and Booger McFarland
mancunian 11/21/24 08:27 AM ET
Not surprising since the P2 is meeting without any one else, not hiding it.
Stech 11/21/24 08:43 AM ET
I know, and currently we have a P4. if the P2 takes
Big12 guy 11/20/24 03:55 PM ET
I think the ACC + Big12 is the only sensible move. The only real argument
VT ChemE 1986 11/21/24 10:27 AM ET
That would be nice, but they seem to be in the mine all mine mood.
Stech 11/20/24 04:24 PM ET
Nah, just let the P2 get it over with and do their own thing
Tailgate Guru 11/20/24 12:32 PM ET
If it goes to 16, the SEC will get 5 autos, B1X 4 autos, ND 1 auto...
EDGEMAN 11/20/24 11:06 AM ET

Big12 guy 11/20/24 12:05 PM ET
My guess:
winston-hoo 11/20/24 11:02 AM ET
If the new playoff contract only gives 1 automatic bid to the G5s, then it
VTHokie2000 11/20/24 05:38 PM ET
Yep, that's why IMO the P2 will go the other way- no automatic bids...
BROman Hokie 11/21/24 12:39 PM ET
No auto bids makes it easier to manipulate the poll so the P2s have 11-12
VTHokie2000 11/21/24 12:48 PM ET
I would all depend on the money, but you could be right. **
Big12 guy 11/20/24 12:06 PM ET
Makes sense**
VT ChemE 1986 11/20/24 11:51 AM ET
Actually it just builds in the subjectivity in advance.**
