This is a VT/ACC board, do putting down the B12 is expected and

encouraged, but maybe if you step back and look at the bigger picture, you wouldn't be so quick to judge. The ACC appears that they are about to add three schools, two of which were "too good" for the B12. Let's look at what being "too good" for those flyover truck stop beer drinking football/basketball crazed schools got them. They are currently without a home, and are trying to buy their way into your conference. So, the hoity academic snobbery schools from CA are trying to get into the ACC, so they can what? Rub elbows with other academic snobbery institutions like NC and Duke? Clearly the ACC will be a much better conference than the B12, just like the PAC was leaps and bounds better than the B12. Be very careful what you ask for, because you just might get it. ** Edited by Big12 guy at 8/30/2023, 8:10:34 AM

Next thing you know, the ACC would add Louisville or something.**

that's an interesting idea.....**
MrBayAreaHokie 08/30/23 12:26 PM ET
I think the 12 gives you ASU and Utah, and we take VT and Pitt. **

WADR this board is successful because it’s not a rivalry Board, we argue

Just what is your intent? **

“Conferences” will not exist in 7 years.

Try ripping apart the SEC and B1G. Won't happen without a HUGE legal fight.**
neworleanshoo 08/30/23 03:02 PM ET
Not a legal fight at all, a media fight.
Hardcore_Hokie 08/30/23 03:04 PM ET
It is my contention that the playoffs could be the equalizer, and that
Big12 guy 08/30/23 12:57 PM ET
Yes, the playoffs are driving things on the surface…
Hardcore_Hokie 08/30/23 01:16 PM ET
LOL
MrFantastic! 08/30/23 08:09 AM ET
As long as the NC schools stick together, you will have the ACC. Nothing
Big12 guy 08/30/23 08:13 AM ET
Actually I agree with some that.
