ACC expansion ...

[R1Letterman]

Nine teams have left CUSA. Some wanted to leave before the others. Consistency in television (ESPN+ vs. Stadium/Facebook/CBSSN, etc.) was a huge factor with teams wanting out of CUSA.

If everyone can be on espn+ at the same time why does it still lead to time changes?

P.s. how much do we get from espn+ per subscription?

[R1Letterman]

Fluke? The SBC has the most non-conference road wins vs. P5 teams over the last five years! And that’s including all 10 FBS conferences, P5 and G5.

Great point

No. We should not go

Shout it from the rooftops, so they can hear you!

Time can change opinions but currently I'm not a huge fan of the ACC

Yeah, the sunbelt is home to the Cajuns. Regional games with our peers.

Not disagreeing. Just would like to hear your reasoning.

I look at it as deciding between playing Arkansas State, ULM,Texas State or Memphis, Tulane, Rice. Deciding between playing in the Top, Overall G5 conference or a rising, good G5 conference.

But is it now really the top G5? I just don’t think it is. Not much separation between the SBC/AAC/MW.

There is no doubt the AAC has been the Top G5 in ALL major sports for several years. Now, the next few years will tell everything. We have added a few good programs, and they have lost a few good programs. WE shall see.

The rubber will meet the road when they have to do a new media deal. I think there will be a lot of inertia then to recreate an eastern "best of" conference to rival the new MWC. Neither the AAC nor the SBC are designed for that right now.

The AAC definitely had football and basketball locked up these past few years…no question. The SBC is the King of G5 Baseball / Softball though.

I’ll say this, the AAC has much better bowl tie-ins. This is something the SBC sorely needs to work on.
