I think the Big 10 is actively trying to take control of Division 1 football. If they can take the power teams from the ACC, there is no option for the SEC to keep pace.
There are no power schools left in the ACC. The only power school that is not in the SEC or Big 10 right now is Notre Dame.
FSU and Clemson are not the type of blue bloods that are worth adding. Texas and OU were. So was USC. But ND is the only one of those left.
We don't need Clemson or FSU and we don't need to keep them from the Big 10 either. We don't lose anything by them going elsewhere because the fans of those teams already watch SEC football games. They'll continue to do so if their teams are in the Big 10. Will they watch more Big 10 games? Sure. But they'll still watch SEC games.
They mean nothing to the SEC either way.

None of us really knows what the conferences are doing, we're just spitballing.
I don't think anyone thought the Big 10 would raid the Pac 12. Those 2 conferences were always allied (gave you a 2 vote presence at all times with the Power 5), they had a century worth of history together, there's no overlap in geography, etc. For the Big 10 to blow it up, that suggests there's something way deeper than what we've been speculating on.
