Hope you are correct. But I don't trust this brood of vipers in the P2 rn.

They will have the leverage to reduce or eliminated auto bids in the future. And their greed will be insatiable by then. I'd rather create something cool and entertaining and worry less about what other people are going to do with the CFP.

But how does the ACC go about "maximizing the value of the brands it has."?
Maroon Baboon • 03/03/23 06:15 PM ET
Agree. And here's my solution to that.

Kicking Schools Out of Conferences May Cause a Firestorm of Fan Blow Back.
WarHog38 • 03/02/23 07:35 PM ET
Instead of kicking schools out, how about setting minimum standards for...

Have Heard That About South Carolina Fans Many Times**
WarHog38 • 03/03/23 12:57 PM ET
Some schools would have to reduce ticket prices

It's not unprecedented. Temple was kicked out of the Big East in 2002.**

Post-modern expansionpaluza doesn't care about the passionate fans though.

Not Saying Article Responses Guarantee Vandy Permanent SEC Residency.

Not Good For The Game
WarHog38 • 03/03/23 01:22 PM ET

Big12 guy • 03/02/23 08:22 PM ET
The B12 should be happy since you no longer have Big TX

I Do Have Some Fear About Texas in the SEC
WarHog38 • 03/03/23 03:39 PM ET
If they did that
Big12 guy • 03/02/23 03:58 PM ET
Auto bids will likely be going away.**
Maroon Baboon • 03/02/23 04:23 PM ET
Not if the conferences can stay together, with the brands or not. **

Currently, they have two votes. It's the conferences that vote
