I PERSONALLY feel like Clemson and Fl. St. are easily the best options when it comes to improving the conference overall.. But they would go for expanding markets and get VT and UNC/NCST

It's a nobrainer...USC and Notre Dame...then the national media would shut up after the 'beat downs'.

On a more serious note: Florida State and Clemson.

The TV rationale may be changing. There has been some noise in congress for "a la carte" payment in cable. If that happens, The math changes a ton, and Missouri was a waste.

It would completely depend upon which school would have the most people willing to pay for the individual program, not just what school is in what state. Texas would be a huge addition (doubtful w Texas TV ), as would ND.
It would also mean Fla St, and Clemson would be viable choices. I'll leave it to someone else to rank which schools would be the biggest adds in that scenario.

UVA and unc.....historic rivals




Sorry but unc and UVA may be rivals but that game doesn't move the smallest of needles for anyone. It's like bama vs Vanderbilt.


Furthermore, unc has embarrassed itself with the African American studies program that it's a punch line in the acc for academics.

I sure hope the sec don't expand to 16 teams. I wish we wouldn't have added the last two. SEC was fine the way it was with the 12 teams. If we had to add a team, to me no one fits the sec better than Clemson, should have added them instead of missouri.

not my choice but practically speaking
1. NC STATE.... tv market and ease of travel.
2. UVA or VPI TV markets.

FSU
Texas
I know that wouldn't give us more markets, but I want to see my Gators in town, and I want FSU to play against good competition.

This is a topic for the realignment board

Harvard and whoever is #2 so Alabama has something to shoot for when it comes to the most MNC's in the conference.

I would like them to expand westward, so Alabama and Auburn could move to the East.
