    SEC already has Vandy. Maybe they should take Duke too.

    Exactly. Didn't they publicly tell the Big East last year that they intended to evaluate their options?

    So, if UNC and Maryland leave the ACC, the ACC likely falls apart.

    First off, I doubt that the SEC is going to just let UNC go to the Big Ten. If they open up the expansion book again, they also take VTech.

    If the ACC falls apart, FSU and Clemson are probably Big XII bound. Maybe others as well.

    After all the dust settles and Notre Dame is forced to find a home, where do they go? ACC and Big East are dead. Big Ten went nuclear with their decision to expand without ND. SEC is probably at 16 (with UNC and VTech).

    I'd laugh if the Big XII ends up with FSU, WVU, and ND as the cornerstones of their expansion and the Big Ten gets Maryland, Georgia Tech, and Rutgers.

    IF, and I mean IF we are for some reason forced to go to 16. I would also laugh if we ended up with Florida State, Clemson, West Virginia, Notre Dame, Louisville, and some other left over ACC team (NC State etc.)
    I would want to still play KU, KSU and keep a texas presence though And keep the same or add money to our pocket. I couldn't even begin to figure pods with this....erggg.
    Can't we all just play nice? Its like watching a reality show.
    Make sure you don't call the charge. But make sure you call the foul on the scrum....

    Why would UNC want to be in the SEC over the B10? UNC doesn't fit the SEC culture at all, especially on the academic side. They would be a much better fit in the B10 and also make more money that way.
