They would be appreciated more and welcomed with open arms. Plus they would get to play teams from across the nation which would be great for recruiting.

In the SEC or Big Ten, they would just be another team but in the Big 12, they would be special and standout.

Because it’s all about a warm & fuzzy feeling with no financial considerations. Got it.

The Big 12 is 3rd in revenue and would receive a huge bump up in pay if it added those 2. Plus they would be giving the SEC and Big Ten the finger and not letting them tell them what to do.

FSU and UCF in the same conference would be hilarious.

Seems like an appropriate thread for an ACC forum.

The big 12 is a glorified group of conference at best. Why step down?

And resort themselves to playing teams like Cincinnati? Why?

The ACC is garbage, it is finished, and it is on borrowed time. No one in the ACC outside of those 2 cares about football. SO it would be a step up.

You’d much rather go to Boston or Dallas for a game than Lubbock or Aimes.

I agree with this. You could almost say they would fill the top spots left open by Texas and Oklahoma.

Don't really matter to me where they go.

That will work well for the BIG12 until FSU and Clemson start asking for more money than the rest of the conference gets.

Cincy doesn't give a shite about football. In fact, they don't give a shite about any of their sports

The shorthorns and sooners just left to be big fish in a big pond. The future is superconferences and big money, and you have 2 big fish leaving for the same pond that couldn't hold the new 2 SEC members.
