Lol. They were up there this year. SEC was more top heavy, but Big12 was better across the board. Still BS that OKST wasn't in the NC either, but it was mostly SEC biased people in the voting so of course.

Where are they in this scenario?

According to the scenario, the "football schools" are dissatisfied with the way Duke and UNC run the conference with their basketball first mentalities. I don't know how much stock I would put into that. The ACC is a media darling for ESPN. The only reason this story would get any actual legs would depend on the seriousness of NBC as a player in collegiate football. If they offer ridiculous cash to push this move, then who knows.

BS? Both OKST and Alabama had one loss. Who had the "better" loss?

Just keep cupping those balls, Rusty. You need the IIX to stay nice and content lest you end up in the Missouri Valley.

The ACC's hope is that they can get Notre Dame and UConn. They'll probably wait for Notre Dame to make a move before finishing up their conference with 16 teams.

If Notre Dame says no, I expect UConn and Rutgers to be the final two teams.

No ACC team will be joining the Big 12 despite the pablum noted by Rustsack.

The only way ACC teams would consider moving to the Big XII would be if the ACC took a big hit. The obvious scenario would be something along the lines of Virginia Tech and NC State joining the SEC.

I don't think that alone would be enough to push teams to the Big XII, but it could start a chain of events that might work in the Big XII's favor. Pretty much any other reasonable scenario involves the Big XII losing teams.

Notre Dame will join the Big XII right after Indiana becomes the 32nd state in Mexico.

Here are possible additions to get to 16.

Option 1: Notre Dame (would come along with rivals included), Pitt, BC, Maryland, Clemson, Florida State

Option 2: Pitt, BC, Maryland, Clemson, Florida State, Georgia Tech

TV will drive this, and with bidding coming soon, this is a package the networks would drool over. This would put the Big 12 in a position to compete as the elite conference with the SEC.

Why, because Nebraska left? The 2 teams that make the conference elite are still there.

If you get one, make sure to only view things from "does it benefit me" perspective when determining if its a good move. For example, if Notre Dame joining your conference benefits you, its going to happen even though there is nothing in it for Notre Dame.

Work "sources are reporting" in there, and you're cooking with gas.

I accidentally had the radio on 810 when I started my car this morning and heard about 30 seconds of KK before I wanted to puke and changed it to 610. Dude really believes Clemson is going to come to the Big 12. LOL.
