I'm not asking if you think the conference is going to expand again.. I'm also not asking you if want it to or not.

Just wondering who'd you pick if the decision to add two teams was left up to you.

Side Question: How well do you see the other main (P4) Conferences holding up with their current structure? Ex: Does USC stay in the BIG?

NC State

These are the two I want. Who do I think they will target?

UVA
UNC

Bring back Tulane, GT and Sewanee. Especially Sewanee because it would make an unbelievable tailgate experience on the mountain.

Why expand it when the good teams hardly play each other?
As a Texas fan i want Ohio st., Georgia, Florida on road, Bama, LSU, Oklahoma,
South Carolina, Tennessee and A&M and anyone else ranked nationally in SEC on my schedule this year but rest of SEC must be too scared to schedule that kind of season

Tulane and Georgia Tech. At least they have history in the SEC and are in the south.

I suggest you search the secrant archives for the hundreds of threads with this title.

If the conference had its way: UNC, UVA, and FSU in that order. If I had my way: UNC, UVA, GA Tech, Duke, Tulane, Rice, Florida State, and possibly, Texas Tech and West Virginia. Personally, I would prefer to see more Vanderbilt-style additions to help raise the conference's academic profile.

How about Maine and Hawaii...

Expand that proverbial footprint.

Terrible picks. I don’t know why people keep recommending these two unless they want an easy victory in football. They don’t even sell out their games.

Yes to Tulane. No to Georgia Tech. GT did not like sharing their revenue with the conference and became greedy in the 1960’s. Additionally they would not play @ Ole Miss or State because we were backwards and racist (as if they were perfect themselves). So leaving was their worst ever decision and they have to continue living with it today.
Doubtful that we ever go above 16. But if we did, Tulane, NC State, Va. Tech and OK State would get us to 20 teams.
LSU-Tulane, OK-OK State could be restored as year end rivals. NC State-VA Tech could be year end rivals as well.
