re: The real candidates for Expansion

UNC and Virginia are the two schools that everyone on every message board on the web agrees would be pretty much guaranteed a spot in either the B1G or SEC. This isn’t news. FSU is the other school the two conferences would fight over. I also think the SEC would jump at a chance to take ND, despite making little sense geographically. Obviously, they are the white whale for the B1G.

There are a number of other schools that may be good fits for either the B1G (Oregon, Washington, Cal, Stanford, Miami) or the SEC (Clemson, NC State, VT), but not many that are obvious shoe-ins to whichever conference they so choose.
