Great points on market size - Auburn Ala

where I attended for a year - is small? Would market size even come up for them if they were being invited to SEC today - no - why -cause of rivalries w fan passion in a packed stadium. 1/2 full stadiums w disinterested fans w golf claps in “big” Markets - not good tv ** Edited by Hokie12thman at 9/2/2022, 10:15:01 AM

I wanted WVU and VT to the SEC in 2003. OR, I wanted the ACC to take ALL -- Maroon Baboon Sep 02, 2022 at 12:05 PM ET

As I recall, in 2003 none of the good reasons you cited mattered -- WestyHokie Sep 02, 2022 at 10:56 AM ET

Hey - agree with the addition of WVU for the reasons you cite, however… -- Brother Griswold Sep 02, 2022 at 10:51 AM ET
