Why does South Carolina have value
Because the games they play against big SEC teams. Before then, South Carolina was on par with VT. So I you add some schools to these leagues, their value will increase. Same with Arkansas. and Missouri. Thy were Texas Tech and Oklahoma State - no different.
Now being in the SEC with those matchups, their value has increased. Not the same with the Big 10
Maryland and Rutgers have gained no value
Nebraska has lost value IMHO
Penn State has remained about the same IMHO
SEC ads value
Big 10. You got to bring it yourself, the match up do not add as much value.
Penn State / Maryland is still Penn State / Maryland. A local game.

That's the greatest demonstration of fan support you can have.

Going back in time, there is a reason that Lou Holtz agreed to coach there and then later Spurrier did. Neither national coach would have given VT a smell if we had job openings at that time.
They know how to play the "big program" game. They have the funding and the stones to play the big program game.
We neither know how to get funding nor the stones to actually apply it like the big programs do.
