Thread: Conference realignment again????

    You try to get teams like Memphis, ECU, UCF, Rice, UTSA. Tech is option like 5 or 6. Tech isnt going going anywhere. We can have them whenever we want. We take them if we need them and thats it.

    Exactly.... What does Tech bring other than old timers (like me) remembering the ole day's rivalry.... I'd rather play Ryan Street high School every year if that is the attraction

    Let em wither away

    SOURCE: North Carolina, Florida State, Clemson, and Virginia are all negotiating to join the SEC. ESPN is trying to void their TV deal with the ACC.

    There will be two super conferences and everyone else, P5 or G5. The question will be what would the media rights deal look like with the additions of those programs to the expected deal with the addition of Oklahoma and Texas?

    Just saw that. Interesting. This means that the ACC will be down to Boston College, Duke, Georgia Tech, Louisville, Miami (real surprise that they were not invited), NC State, Pitt, Syracuse, VT and Wake and of course ND in a weird sort of way. Their will be some jockeying of positions with whomever is left standing from the Big 12, PAC 12 and ACC. It will be interesting to see how this all shakes out.

    Miami probably not being considered since the SEC has only one private school (Vandy), and probably dump them if they could.

    Could be FSU and UF didn't want a 3rd team from Florida

    Duke and ND make sense in the Big10

    Amazon is in a bidding war with Apple for Sunday ticket rumor is its going to be 3-5 Billon a year. I easily see ESPN shelling out 500-600 mill a year to this new SEC and getting a baring in comparison.

    This is getting crazy, again the teams left standing without a chair to the B1G and SEC are going to have to figure out how 2 mucked up conferences will end up looking. You still have a few really good teams out there and then some not so good football teams that bring other sports to the table (specifically baseball and basketball).

    Basketball wise you still have Duke, Kansas and Arizona that bring little to the table in the way of football, but are perennial powerhouses in basketball. Then you have pretty good football schools like Oregon, Miami, Virginia Tech, Cincy (as of late), Oklahoma State, Washington and Utah.

    Wow I just can not keep up with this, it is crazy to see how it all shakes out in the end. As of right now their are 32 teams, if the ACC defections take place (not counting ND) that are currently P5 teams that are left standing in the ACC, Big 12 and PAC 12. Here is the current list and as of today don't have a seat at the dance (but some will).

    ACC
    BC, Duke, GT, Louisville, Miami, NC State, Pitt, Syracuse, VT, Wake

    Big 12
    Iowa State, OSU, WV, TCU, Kanas State, Texas Tech, Baylor, Kansas, UCF, Cincy, Houston and BYU

    PAC 12
    Oregon, Washington State, Oregon State, Cal, Washington, Stanford, Utah, Arizona State, Colorado and Arizona.
