For the same reason UGA doesn't want GT in the SEC.
Unless adding those teams means more money for UGA/SC/UF, they'll be against it. The SEC is not a charity.
None of those teams bring enough money to the table to give more money to existing SEC members. Why would any existing SEC team want to make less by adding them?

Since you recruit against them and play them head to head, why not let them partake in a tougher conf schedule than these two hilarious schedules that now have former confUSA or pac12 teams…..the bad ones at that.
Truth? Because I don't want them getting $0.01 of SEC money.

Again?
You obviously don't know what you are talking about. Florida has publicly stated it's support for FSU to join the SEC since the '90s.
Maybe you aren't very well read on the subject, or you would know that FSU was all set to join the SEC decades ago and pulled the old switchero on us at the last minute and went to the ACC at the behest of Bobby Bowden. It was some bullshite back room dealing, and personally I don't think you enter into another deal with someone who has done this, but apparently Florida still isn't trying to block FSU from entering the conference.
So I guess you may be half right. I don't have any knowledge of the SC/Clemson situation, but it wouldn't surprise me if you are wrong on that as well.
But I do love an LSU schedule thread in the off-season. For some reason, LSU loves to tell everyone else how to manage their schedules. Must be something in the water.

Remember the old 90's joke?
Q: Why did the chicken cross the road?
A: To join the ACC.

smart $ says UF - seems the Upstate school has 'borrowed' quite a few things and called it their own throughout the years - I want to think 1939 was the year CU has claimed it was first used - but who knows if the supporting story is truth or fiction -

It’s cute you all think USUCK holds that much power, they don’t. They also have a board that has a heavy influence from the state legislature. If you believe the state legislature will sit back and allow o e state supported university from making more money I have ocean front property for n Arizona for you. It’s not happening . Furthermore I don’t think the SEC cares. Look no further than Texas A&M and Texas.
Go Tigers!

Well, considering they stole their mascot, their colors, their fight song and the nickname of their stadium, I could make a guess.....

If adding Clemson and FSU would mean more money for each of the teams in the SEC, the SEC will add teams.
If it's the same money or less they won't.
The SEC believed Texas and OU would mean more money per team. It didn't work out that way. The ESPN per team payout remained unchanged. It just went up enough to cover Texas and OU's share.
Clemson and FSU have less money making potential that OU and Texas. They're not going to be added unless the situation changes and adding them guarantees more money for the existing SEC teams.
That's not because of SC or UF. It's because of all the SEC teams. Expansion needs to be financially beneficial for the existing schools for it to happen. Not as "potential" future earnings this time, but real promises of more money per team coming from ESPN.

I can see that point. But as you can see, there are some posters that just say,
frickem
Or
Don’t want them to have sec money
It’s not a block vote where all usc and uf fans do want those two in the conference.
I thought it makes sense in a competitive way to go ahead and add them from a fans perspective (knowing that today, conferences don’t acquiesce to fans….but money). Dont let them cakewalk anymore.
I saw that ACC schedule and laughed at SMU, Cal, Stanford etc as in-conf games.
Before it left the rails by post #5, the disparagement is on that weak ACC schedule. Even laughing at LSU for getting outsmarted by fsu for a week zero game in 2022. Then shorty got her James’ rustled. Hypersensitive.
