Yes. We need rivalries.

Been saying that for WVU and Cincinnati. We could benefit, but Texas is huge. Need other parts of the State. Houston area is also important. TCU and SMU are in same metro. But your point is valid. That's what Fox directed in LA, and what we did in Bay Area. So it's a trade off. ** Edited by HOO86 at 9/25/2024, 8:19:41 PM

San Diego State is best of all the west.
HOO86 • 09/25/24 11:11 PM ET
Yeah if the ACC was going to expand out west, Chargers in LA, huge market,

As long as you have the privates, it won't happen. **
Big12 guy • 09/25/24 12:48 PM ET
I'd be happy with Baylor in the ACC
HOO86 • 09/25/24 07:48 PM ET
ACC may not need TCU, but does the ACC NEED spirited rivalries and more
VTHokie2000 • 09/25/24 08:10 PM ET
Yes. We need rivalries. ◄
HOO86 • 09/25/24 08:16 PM ET
I get wanting members in other parts of Texas. However, SMU's rivalries
VTHokie2000 • 09/25/24 08:27 PM ET
Agree. If we take that many.
HOO86 • 09/25/24 08:41 PM ET
In terms of primary rivalries within the state of TX, I think the list
VTHokie2000 • 09/25/24 08:54 PM ET
The UT-TAM is the big one
HOO86 • 09/25/24 08:58 PM ET
I know the UT-TAMU one is big, but I excluded all primary rivalries
VTHokie2000 • 09/25/24 09:04 PM ET
OK. I just think Houston presence is important.
HOO86 • 09/25/24 09:19 PM ET
I get the desire to have a member physically located in Houston and I don't
VTHokie2000 • 09/25/24 09:57 PM ET
I think VTHokie2000 is right. If you were to ask any of the former SWC
Big12 guy • 09/25/24 09:52 PM ET
Which is why the ACC should probably focus on the more passionate secondary
VTHokie2000 • 09/25/24 10:02 PM ET
The private schools (cough) BYU (oh my it is really dusty on this board)
