Hope Not. They're the heart of the Big Ten.

Penn State would be the only school in that conference I'd want in the ACC. They regionally fit what the ACC has put together, and the rivalries with Pitt and Syracuse could be restored. They are still an outsider in a midwestern league no matter how hard they are trying to make it work. Rutgers and Maryland make a slight difference, but it's minimal. And now the two of them are out of place.

I cringe at the idea of UVA considering running off to a midwestern league, and it's no better contemplating loading up the ACC with midwestern schools. That league over in the midwest is just fine like it is. I might be able to tolerate one more from Ohio like Cincinnati or Ohio University, but none beyond that.

I understand hyping Meyer v Harbaugh, but Michigan St has been best team -- HOO86 05/02/2016 12:17PM

I like watching Sparty, they play good D, but have to change -- Lead Dog 05/02/2016 12:46PM

Michigan State football still doesn't have the name recognition -- VTHokie2000 05/02/2016 12:31PM

I'm familiar with what's going on. -- HOO86 05/02/2016 12:51PM

Meyer has 3 Nattys. Harbaw is an elite football coach. 2 national programs. -- HokieHollar 05/02/2016 10:24PM

Agreed. They're going to put games on TV that people will watch.** -- reestuart 05/03/2016 08:48AM

For this next round you may see conferences end up with -- VTHokie2000 05/02/2016 2:26PM

The Big Ten really only had 4 bluebloods: Ohio State, Michigan, -- VTHokie2000 05/02/2016 1:25PM

That's mostly who is being featured. -- HOO86 05/02/2016 1:35PM

I wouldn't read too much into it -- VTHokie2000 05/02/2016 1:51PM

Yeah, MSU will likely end up in several of the 3:30 slots and likely -- reestuart 05/02/2016 5:25PM

I don't think OSU broke out 2 years ago. They've won something like 9 BCS -- reestuart 05/02/2016 1:17PM

Hope Not. They're the heart of the Big Ten.
