What's this?

"Get out before we are left behind"?

Not sure where most schools would go.

The other schools will stick around, collect the massive exit fees, close ranks, and carry on. Just as the BigXII is doing now.

UNC and UVa might have an invite to the B1G. But even losing 4 isn't enough IMO to eliminate the exit fees (disband the conference).

BTW, I don't even count ND as part of the equation. But even they have contractual obligations as you know.

Side note. I've been saying that the B1G should look to move into the South (primarily for non-AAU FSU and Clemson). Like you, I don't want it. But if the SEC were to land these three, the B1G would be screwed. Even cherry picking the PAC and sifting through the ACC and BigXII leftovers wouldn't match the SEC at that point.

Right. Limit sec to one playoff slot, and their plans fall flat. -- Truthahn 01/21/2022 9:04PM

Expanding the CFP is only a front burner issue for the SEC. -- Maroon Baboon 01/21/2022 9:19PM

Perhaps Finebaum missed the part about Jim Phillips listening to Clemson. -- HOO86 01/21/2022 8:00PM

It's January, he needs something to talk about -- mrcaniac 01/21/2022 5:45PM

I think it's more than that, I don't think the SEC likes the ACC expansion -- Stech 01/21/2022 6:11PM

I'm not sure football independence is the priority for ND -- EDGEMAN 01/22/2022 10:11AM

ND could have joined the Big East, Big Ten or ACC at any time for decades -- TerryD 01/22/2022 12:43PM

This is not the acc they know -- Mercury 01/21/2022 11:35PM

If ESPN wants the ACC to be silent, pay us SEC bucks! ** -- EDGEMAN 01/22/2022 10:12AM

I think most of the ACC schools laugh at the idea of ND in the SEC -- EDGEMAN 01/22/2022 10:12AM

True on ND, Clemson and FSU are a different story, many think they want SEC -- Stech 01/22/2022 10:42AM

They may change their tune if the price is right. -- VTHokie2000 01/22/2022 12:33PM

If the ACC implodes, don't see both UVA and VT in the same conference -- EDGEMAN 01/22/2022 10:17AM

Probably not, but they both would be good fits in the B1G and SEC. -- Stech 01/22/2022 10:47AM

He knows that would end the ACC, the rest would head for the door, end GOR! -- Stech 01/21/2022 5:44PM

The SEC is going to have to invite a lot more than 2 to break up the ACC -- Maroon Baboon 01/21/2022 8:33PM

Definitely would, but if they pull th strongest bricks, th foundation falls -- Stech 01/21/2022 8:52PM

What constitutes "a home"? -- Maroon Baboon 01/21/2022 9:01PM

Their standing, but Texas and OU will double the money of those in the B12. -- Stech 01/21/2022 9:13PM

Why does the SEC need anyone to call them? ** -- Maroon Baboon 01/21/2022 5:36PM

Just another talking head to ignore. ** -- RJHokie 01/21/2022 5:01PM
