I mentioned B12 because you said pundits have been always wrong,

I found it funny since I’ve seen many pro-B12 pundits repeatedly bring up the 'imminent ACC implosion' scenario (e.g., WVU dude’s ACC doomsday clock and the Locked on Big 12 guy). Going back to the main topic you're certainly entitled to your opinion but I'll take real reporters' word on this. "According to ESPN’s Pete Thamel, North Carolina and Virginia are going to be “coveted” heavily by both the Big Ten and SEC. Thamel points out Notre Dame is the ultimate goal for both conferences but looking past the Fighting Irish, landing UNC and UVA will be a battle."

New bill would require UNC, NC State to play annually
RandomAsianGuy • 03/21/25 07:14 PM ET
I understand the sentiment, but such a bill is unenforceable

Once the two are separated, you are right.**
VTCALS72 • 03/23/25 12:21 PM ET
well if the conference wants team x they have to play with the state rules
1947Sunbowl • 03/22/25 10:22 PM ET
If a conference didn't allow the schools to play, then arguably the schools
tarheelblue • 03/22/25 09:40 PM ET
The last part is your speculation right? It sure isn’t in the article. **
Stech • 03/21/25 10:05 PM ET
Yes, everthing below the dotted line is mine. **
RandomAsianGuy • 03/21/25 10:52 PM ET
Nothing Burger. In fact, it's a downgrade from what was being said a year
Maroon Baboon • 03/21/25 09:10 PM ET
The point is UNC may not have a say about its travel partner.
RandomAsianGuy • 03/21/25 10:57 PM ET
"If UNC chooses"? SMH, they are not a Texas or Oklahoma my friend. **
Big12 guy • 03/21/25 07:20 PM ET
You don’t think the P2 want UNC?
RandomAsianGuy • 03/21/25 11:00 PM ET
OU and UNC are a wash **
VaTechHokiesACC • 03/24/25 02:03 AM ET
In football? Just a peek at history says otherwise. **
Big12 guy • 03/24/25 08:13 AM ET
No, it wasn't a B12 is better post. More it's a UNC isn't worth nearly as
Big12 guy • 03/22/25 07:06 AM ET
I hate UNC with a passion but that's not true **
VaTechHokiesACC • 03/24/25 02:01 AM ET
yeah that's incorrect.**
neworleanshoo • 03/22/25 02:59 PM ET
UNC is held in very high esteem and I hate saying it.**
MrFantastic! • 03/22/25 10:40 AM ET
Unc football has been an underachieving disappointment for the ACC.**
wwhokie1 • 03/22/25 03:02 PM ET
it's what the pundits are saying, but really, have they been
Big12 guy • 03/22/25 11:19 AM ET
What you are leaving out
VTCALS72 • 03/23/25 12:19 PM ET
Not out here in flyover. **
Big12 guy • 03/23/25 03:16 PM ET
Exactly. This is the big thing with the networks.
Femoyer Hokie • 03/23/25 01:21 PM ET
I thought the Big 12 fans loved pundits talking about the demise of the ACC
RandomAsianGuy • 03/22/25 12:26 PM ET
Dude, picking a B12 ACC fight at this stage of the game is

I mentioned B12 because you said pundits have been always wrong, ◄
RandomAsianGuy • 03/22/25 07:02 PM ET
Yes. Wishful thinking In my opinion. **
Big12 guy • 03/22/25 08:26 PM ET
Well you’re wrong
MrFantastic! • 03/23/25 06:11 AM ET
Maybe, but not a single school you mentioned moves the needle in
