At this point, it feels like the SEC and ACC could bring NCAA down with 1 press conference

As these 2 conferences go, the rest of CFB goes. It could also be this way with the Big 10 (and probably on a larger scale) but they don’t seem as locked in with SEC goals like the ACC. The Big 12 seems to be along for the ride and the PAC 12 is an afterthought.
If the SEC and ACC were to agree together on a cross-conf season and invite others to join in, it could easily be the end of NCAA where soon after they announce they split off from the NCAA.
While the ACC doesn’t have many heavy hitters program wise outside of Clemson, I admire their no bullshite approach to this whole situation.

I think the NCAA is already dead. They have stayed silent through all of this which means they know.

We carry the football side. They carry the basketball side. We both have some great baseball programs. It works

And we're also forgetting one very big player that now has a huge seat at the table.
Notre Dame.
I despise them. But no one ever accused them of being stupid. They...with their NBC contract in their pocket...have parlayed that ACC relationship into a very big seat at this table.
Watch what happens when Notre Dame throws their considerable weight behind this.

Didn’t even think about other sports but very true!

By the way...Notre Dame has agreed to share their NBC money with the ACC.

College baseball without the SEC or ACC is basically a slow pitch league.

So at what point do we all say “we make our own rules?”

While I support and hope they play, there are undoubtedly millions of college football fans who are against having a season. Very possible that even if they do play that TV viewership will be way down from normal in protest. No good solutions, just the least worst options.

There are WAAAY more college football fans that want the season to be played. The only ones that don't want it are jackasses on the west coast and in Big 10 country

Know what? Why are some of you getting butthurt about the NCAA?
They are irrelevant to this decision. There is no good that could come from them announcing anything but an extension of eligibility.
The SEC has delayed their decision until September. The Big 10 embarrassment and fake news floating around doesn’t change that.
We all got riled up by nonsense. Nothing ultimately has changed or happened regarding the state of college football.

They're not talking because they technically don't have any say here, that's part of the reason this is looking messy, too.

The NCAA is a voluntary organization any confrence or school can leave any time they so choose, many seem oblivious to this fact.
The SEC has no desire to "bring down the NCAA" they have the biggest seat at the table and it benefits them greatly.

SEC and ACC need to reform the old Southern Conference like pre 1930s and secede from NCAA

It would cost them mucho money and they would be left out of all NCAA championships.
No basketball or baseball tourney would be a kick in the nuts.
The SEC owns the NCAA, why would they ever wish to cut off their nose to spite their face?

Way down is still better than 0.
