The only Big 10 schools that would interest me as a fan...


would be Penn State, Ohio State, Michigan, and Maryland (just because its a regional school). I doubt UVA would ever leave the ACC unless UNC did and I don't see UNC or Duke leaving the ACC. NC State would fit the Big 10 profile (if they became an AAU member). They have better football fans than both UNC and Duke. If the Big 10 had an eastern division that comprised of Tech, NC State, Maryland, Penn State, Rutgers, Ohio State, Michigan, and Michigan State, that wouldn't be that bad a division, especially if the B1G money was much better than that of the ACC. I wouldn't be that excited about playing the B1G western division teams except for Nebraska and Wisconsin. We've played Purdue and Indiana, and neither got me excited.

With all that said, I think Tech remains in the ACC since I see the conference asking every member to solidify their commitment to the ACC a few years before (something like 2025) the GOR agreement ends in 2027. I just see the ACC putting pressure on all its members to stay committed. Plus the ACC will know what schools aren't 100% committed. This will prevent another Maryland situation in the future.
