I think the SEC's interest in FSU is completely dependent on the B1G's

interest in FSU. The SEC doesn't really want FSU, they just don't want the B1G to have them. FSU just assumes they should be wanted by both. And perhaps, they are wanted by neither.

HouClone • 07/01/26 02:36 PM ET
Politicians can try to tie them at the hip, but that will not work.
wwhokie1 • 07/02/26 01:52 PM ET
I think they will also look at the game itself: UNC vs. NCSU and UVa vs. VT
Maroon Baboon • 07/05/26 01:34 PM ET
Assuming the info is true at face value. A few comments.
Maroon Baboon • 07/02/26 02:24 AM ET
Yes. This is the best triage to split the baby down the middle. I hate to
TDVick • 07/02/26 06:22 AM ET
As much as the two schools are connected, I can't see UVa doing something
Maroon Baboon • 07/02/26 07:00 AM ET
Sort of agree. I think the VA pols will stuff UVA into the B10 to make
TDVick • 07/02/26 09:28 AM ET
Had we already been an SEC member, adding UVa now would be more attractive
TDVick • 07/02/26 09:15 AM ET
In days past, yes. Nowadays anything goes**
83Hokie • 07/01/26 05:53 PM ET
I could see those 4 to the SEC, I could also see UVA, Miami, GT & ND to B1G

I thought FSU was chalk for the B1G?

I don't see anyone here "running with it" like it's 100% true
RVAHokie05 • 06/30/26 10:32 AM ET
Just posting it is running with it. Discussing it is running with it.

Nah I don't agree, but that's okay. Feel free to continue not visiting.

The only difference between UNC and KU is that UNC is from a bigger state.

Agreed. The NC market is better. UNC has

I find it a bit of a headscratcher that FSU and Clemson would prefer SEC
