We all know that the SEC is the premier super conference in the NCAA. So if you were the SEC commissioner:

1. Which two schools would YOU like to add?
2. Which two schools do we actually end up with?
3. And why.

Personally I'd love to see

Miami Hurricanes
rebuilding football, Top 25 basketball & baseball

Louisville Cardinals
Top 25 football & baseball, Top 10 basketball

Honorable mention - Virginia Tech

At the end of the day I think we end up with NC STATE & Virginia Tech

I'd like to go the other way and tell Missouri and Texas A&M, "sorry,this was a pilot program and we're sending you back to the Big 12."

STOP THE MADNESS!!!!

As long as ESPN is in control mentioning any ACC school leaving is moot as the SEC is the firewall protecting the ACC.

I like how people who start these threads open up with some "setting-the-stage" type introduction such as yours.

It's been discussed 1000s of times here.

Fly them proudly like South Carolina's 1969 ACC Champion Flag.

I was wondering when someone was going to make a "which 2 schools should we add" thread. You just don't see them enough.

Canada and Mexico. SEC manifest destiny will then be entirely complete.

The major realignment train stopped when the CFP was established. Only the Big 12 appears likely to try and expand (back to 12, ironically) any time soon.

let's go to 26 and only play SEC teams instead

SMU, Tulane, Rice, Georgia Tech, Miami, Virginia Tech, West Virginia, Cincinnati, NC State, Maryland, Pitt, Notre Dame


and if it can only be two... SMU and Tulane

Can we just sticky one of these or bring back the conference changes board instead of having a new thread everyday?

Here, I'll save the trouble:

Virginia or Virginia Tech

and

North Carolina or NC State.

Somebody will have to throw in OU and Texas.

Somebody else will mention schools already in the SEC footprint that stand zero chance of invitation (FSU, Clemson, GT).

Everything else is a rubbish suggestion.
