I agree, Stanford and Cal made it clear as day that they did not

want to be in the fly over beer drinking politically incorrect conference. The thing is, almost all of us in the B12 are OK with that. As far as being the #3 conference? It won't matter in the long run. I will say, that college football needs a stable ACC moving forward. They needed a stable PAC as well, but can't change the past. If there is legitimate access to the playoffs, it is there that the conference pecking order will be decided - or at least should be decided. It's also where the future big money will be. If they keep the top 6 conference auto's, go to 16 teams in the playoffs, and give every conference champion a home playoff game, the regular season will remain relevant, and winning the conference will mean more than it does now. You watch - that money will not be able to buy championships for the Indiana's and Rutgers of the world. It's time to start beating these blue bloods on the field, like TCU did to the BIG's undefeated champion. It's time for college ball.

that's an interesting idea.....**
MrBayAreaHokie 08/30/23 12:26 PM ET
I think the 12 gives you ASU and Utah, and we take VT and Pitt. **

“Conferences” will not exist in 7 years.

Try ripping apart the SEC and B1G. Won't happen without a HUGE legal fight.**
neworleanshoo 08/30/23 03:02 PM ET
Not a legal fight at all, a media fight.
Hardcore_Hokie 08/30/23 03:04 PM ET
It is my contention that the playoffs could be the equalizer, and that
Big12 guy 08/30/23 12:57 PM ET
Yes, the playoffs are driving things on the surface…
Hardcore_Hokie 08/30/23 01:16 PM ET
LOL
MrFantastic! 08/30/23 08:09 AM ET
As long as the NC schools stick together, you will have the ACC. Nothing
Big12 guy 08/30/23 08:13 AM ET
Actually I agree with some that.
