So why do the SEC and B1G want to require 5 years of independence

for a P4 school to move unless they dont really want to expand ? They also want to cap conferences at 19 per Ross Dellanger. Sounds to me like only Notre Dame (or UConn) would be on the table for the B1G based on that criteria. The ACC could decide to offer its last slot to the highest G5 bidder SMU style to not be permanently left out of the P4 forever. This could get interesting. ** Edited by Sunsetunderground at 7/20/2026, 1:00:45 PM

Wouldn't we have two slots open then? So, who has money in the G6?

There is some Zoomer congressional staffer trolling us.

Haha, wow that kneecaps the ACC and B12 but doesn’t hurt P2

To cap conference realignment so that the P2 won't get too big....

That seems more like the government’s latest proposal.
