With any more expansion, the B1G needs REAL football for its East Division

Look, 20 team leagues are absolutely getting four 5-team divisions. Ohio State, Michigan and Michigan State are gonna be in a division separate from Penn State. Penn State + Maryland + Rutgers is basically 1 + 0 + 0. UNC? UVA? Added to Maryland and Rutgers? That is awful. And I can’t see Disney or Fox being on board with that. Miami would be a must in the “AAU or nothing” world. But I don’t know what the B1G would do next. UNC won’t go without UVA if you believe the national media (I think Miami + UNC would be the floor the B1G would aim for, myself). Miami + GT? Major media market is checked, but GT is just another Rutgers at this stage in the game. Miami + FSU works on a ton of levels if I’m the Big Ten. FSU may not be AAU, but screw that.

Rumor that SEC has turned down FSU and Clemson
HokieR • 07/10/24 12:48 PM ET
Never believe a thing from Fly War Eagle. Awful site.**
PitHokie • 07/14/24 08:56 PM ET
Is anyone else absolutely amused by it all now?
BigDave • 07/11/24 11:24 AM ET
FSU suing to leave the ACC was a waste of money
INSIDE99 • 07/13/24 09:37 AM ET
Very amused**
HokieR • 07/11/24 12:02 PM ET
If you're at a table surrounded by 9's and 10's
LonghornHokie • 07/10/24 10:36 PM ET
this is consistent with Skipper's previous thoughts**

That Looks Like an Obscure Auburn Site
WarHog38 • 07/10/24 04:11 PM ET
How many current Big 12 teams have made it to the 🏈 National Championship?**
Stech • 07/11/24 06:54 AM ET
What acc simply needs is to win
1947Sunbowl • 07/11/24 07:57 AM ET
Someone here may have said that they never had an SEC invite
CobbCountyHokie • 07/10/24 03:22 PM ET
With no AAU, the Big Ten would be a long shot.
HOO86 • 07/10/24 06:38 PM ET
Everyone seems to be forgetting Nebraska…

You're not wrong but...
HOO86 • 07/10/24 09:53 PM ET
Why didn't they take Johns Hopkins before MD?
VTCALS72 • 07/11/24 08:40 AM ET
They only wanted Johns Hopkins for Lacrosse.
HOO86 • 07/11/24 12:57 PM ET
Whoosh!!!!**
VTCALS72 • 07/11/24 01:11 PM ET
Is Johns Hopkins interested in competing at the DI level for all sports?
VTHokie2000 • 07/11/24 10:47 AM ET
Point was that if the conference is the majority of making the football
VTCALS72 • 07/11/24 12:10 PM ET
It wouldn't be surprising. I've thought all along that that FSU and CU
HokieToph • 07/10/24 02:11 PM ET
Agree they are just 2 more mouths to feed in markets the SEC already has
VPI_1998 • 07/10/24 06:49 PM ET
I don't think fanbases and viewership is that fickle
VTCALS72 • 07/11/24 08:42 AM ET
FSU & Clemson Matched Up With SEC Schools Surely Would Appeal to ESPN
WarHog38 • 07/10/24 09:52 PM ET
New state or not, Clemson brings more viewers than either UNC or UVA**
VTCALS72 • 07/10/24 03:05 PM ET
until they are dead
MrBayAreaHokie • 07/10/24 06:07 PM ET
Those Two Were Proven as Solid Facts When Texas Wanted in SEC
WarHog38 • 07/10/24 11:50 PM ET
To a degree that is true and why UVA is seen in as favorable light as they
VTCALS72 • 07/10/24 06:16 PM ET
Not credible sources create the best discussion **
PadrosWindup • 07/10/24 01:58 PM ET
Not sure why a BIG12 invite would change anything about the GOR**
Two4VT • 07/10/24 01:36 PM ET
So big12 would pay clemsfu "double+ current acc" payout presumably
VT757to276 • 07/10/24 01:19 PM ET
I don't know, the rest of the 12
Big12 guy • 07/10/24 01:45 PM ET
Not surprised if true.
RJHokie • 07/10/24 01:09 PM ET
