And the exact same thing is true for UTex and OU. Except that OU has about 30 tv sets in the whole state. That and A&M would block the shite out of adding either team.

I should be clear. I don't really give a frick how much money the SEC makes or what their market is. I thought you were asking what we would like to see, as fans.

I want to see good, regional football between prominent programs from the southeast that I'm familiar with.

Clemson, FSU makes the most sense to me. I know it's not going to happen.

clemson brings a bunch of funny looking fans and gives les miles confusion. Les would be like a small child on maury if clemson came in. saban,dabo and freeze would be getting paternity test to find out who is really les miles dad.

You mean international, that Canadian market would be huge. Tebow might even make it down to see his Gators play.

Hell with Florida State and Clemson. Let them suffer and stay miserable in the ACC.

Might bring back Georgia Tech as well.


That won't happen. They're athletic department is a sinking ship. They offer nothing. Texas...on the other hand.

I'm pretty sure Clemson has more fans than USC


And you would be wrong. Overall, the state is about 60-40 USC over Clemson. Clemson dominates in the upstate, but rest of the state is majority USC.

Has destroyed 2 conferences and publicly stated that they would never consider the SEC (they're too good for the SEC)

What about that survey that has floated around on here before. Didn't say Clemson had more fans in that?

I'd like to see statistics to back that up. I've always thought Clemson to have more fans.

based on this description I would say FSU and UNC. Idgaf about Clemson. FSU and UNC are southern schools that both are well located for rivalries,etc, and both have great overall ADs. SEC baseball would be impossible though
