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!

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.
