Somewhat agreed. I think the new B1G and SEC are both over 20.

They can’t leave passionate college fan bases and entire swaths of the country out of it and still get the ratings. People in Oregon and Virginia watch college football too…at least they do right now. But if VT is relegated to the Mac I’m out as a college football fan. I would still attend and view vT games, probably not as much as I had admittedly, but I will have zero interest in Auburn versus Georgia. I’ll follow VT as a niche product and then become more passionate about my NFL team. Heck, I’m already loving the new MLS team in Charlotte. That stuff’s fun! ** Edited by BBBDatVT_ at 8/7/2022, 7:31:15 PM ** Edited by BBBDatVT_ at 8/7/2022, 8:12:00 PM ** Edited by BBBDatVT_ at 8/7/2022, 8:13:02 PM

People are factoring VT into this as if we would be playing in the Coastal.

Well networks like espn fox would pull back
Mercury • 08/08/22 07:13 AM ET
I think the B10 invites eight of us soon.
Truthahn • 08/07/22 08:47 PM ET
actually think u hit something
Mercury • 08/08/22 08:09 AM ET
I assume that breakup would be like the end of the Metro conference
Truthahn • 08/08/22 12:11 PM ET
??? for you
MrFantastic! • 08/08/22 08:28 AM ET
NCAA created 1AA in the late 70s.
mancunian • 08/08/22 10:09 AM ET
So ESPN will allow their properties to FOX? NOTTA**
MrFantastic! • 08/08/22 07:32 AM ET
if all 14 together go
Mercury • 08/08/22 08:11 AM ET
I can't see Wake, BC nor CUSE in SEC. But who knows.**
MrFantastic! • 08/08/22 08:22 AM ET
West Virginia joins the Ivy League before that happens**
obguthr • 08/08/22 10:45 AM ET
They need to find landing spots for 8 ACC teams if they are going to go
TDVick • 08/08/22 12:42 AM ET
I think SEC gobbles up FSU, Miami, Clemson, GT?, and 1 each of NC and Va.
BBBDatVT_ • 08/07/22 11:57 PM ET
SEC has no interest in GT.**
133193Hokie • 08/08/22 11:14 AM ET
Once again, I just don't see Miami as a "hot commodity"
EDGEMAN • 08/08/22 08:16 AM ET
ESPN can sell the crap out of most SEC vs Miami matchups. I Think Miami is
133193Hokie • 08/08/22 11:16 AM ET
I'm with you. I think there is an antiquated media bias that thinks Miami
HokieToph • 08/08/22 10:19 AM ET
the U is always talked about. **
MrFantastic! • 08/08/22 08:25 AM ET
Have to wonder if that's just a disinformation campaign to hide...
EDGEMAN • 08/08/22 08:48 AM ET
Will never happen, they will add West Coast first to join with USC/UCLA.**
wwhokie1 • 08/07/22 09:52 PM ET
I agree...
MrFantastic! • 08/08/22 06:53 AM ET
Us joining the NFC east is more likely than anything you said.**
Maroon Effect • 08/07/22 07:06 PM ET
Easier to win than the SEC**
WestyHokie • 08/08/22 09:31 AM ET
What's your prediction? VT's left out? If not, what's your division setup?
BBBDatVT_ • 08/08/22 12:48 AM ET
So, what’s your prediction? Bring it. **
BBBDatVT_ • 08/07/22 08:24 PM ET
So, VT has no chance at the B1G or SEC? Wanna bet?
BBBDatVT_ • 08/07/22 07:07 PM ET
It depends if the B1G & SEC go beyond 20.
Old Line Hokie • 08/07/22 07:22 PM ET
If all of those teams come from the ACC, we are definitely in.
Truthahn • 08/07/22 08:29 PM ET
Somewhat agreed. I think the new B1G and SEC are both over 20. ◄
BBBDatVT_ • 08/07/22 07:26 PM ET
There is a huge gap between not being part of the P2 and being relegated
133743Hokie • 08/07/22 08:24 PM ET
Not when the B1G and SEC become pro leagues.
BBBDatVT_ • 08/08/22 12:49 AM ET
We will be much closer to the Mac than SEC. Zero chance at a title.
