If SEC expands to 16 teams, what two teams would you pick?

You can pick any teams, because the presumption is that its better to play in SEC than any other conference.
I think Florida State for sure, but then am torn between Miami or Texas.

None of those make any sense. The SEC wants to expand its TV market. The SEC already has the states of Florida and Texas.
If they expand it would be into North Carolina and Virginia.

I love the U but Miami fans are NOTHING like SEC fans at all. Frick that noise.

Va Tech & Texas.
Va Tech picks up the huge DC market and Texas is the richest school in America. Why not add them to the richest conference AND bring UT & A&M back together again.

UVA and UNC. Opens up VA and NC, while also bringing in historic, traditional rivals. For the academic people, it brings in great academic schools too.
UNC-UK could become a great basketball rivalry too, traditional blue bloods. Both add to baseball, and sponsor men's soccer, possibly making enough schools for the SEC to sponsor it.
ANYONE BUT VA TECH!!

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

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.

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.

CLEMSON AND FSU
Maybe consider VT, NC,

Clemson and Fla St.
Clos3 3rd would be Ga. Tech.
And don't give me any shite about TV markets. I don't give a frick and the OP said I could pick any two I wanted. Those two are the best fit.

From purely a football standpoint, no doubt FSU and Clemson. But I think adding UNC and UVA would be cool. Their football programs would improve, they are solid at other sports, and have great academics.
Eta: Anyone that says GT is stupid. They no longer fit in with the SEC in anyway whatsoever.

The two ideal candidates in North Carolina and Virginia are UNC and UVa. That applies to any conference. They bring a LOT more to the table than VT or NC St. I'm not sure if the SEC could get them, though. They're sort of tied at the hip, and UVa's alumni/decision-makers (as well as some of UNC's, probably) have serious reservations about the SEC. They'll stay in the ACC as long as it's viable.
To the people saying VT, you do NOT want that. If you think the current SEC fan bases have a problem with redneck sidewalk fans, just you wait. Pretty much their entire fan base is comprised of rednecks from southwest VA and fair-weather fans from the rest of the state who didn't become fans until Vick showed up. There are less of them every year.
VT is an average school, they generally suck at sports except for football (which they suck at now), the town isn't cool (or at least can't compare with Charlottesville, for comparison), and the fans suck dong. Their football program may as well have not existed before Frank Beamer, and he's about done.
