We should add UNC and VT to the SEC

and move Mizzou to the west. VT and UNC would both have natural rivals in Tenner for VT and UK/SC for the Tar Heels. Expand our regular season schedules to 13 games to include three OOC games and three cross-divisional games. This would finally add all the southern states to the conference and would beef up our basketball prestige. I would also love for UGA to play UNC and VT every year.

We play a west team every like 10 years. Screw expansion.

UGA to play UNC
I would put down so many spike strips at SC border crossings when those 2 are scheduled to play.

Let's just settle for VT and NC State. The Wolfpack would have a ready-made rivalry with the Gamecocks. UNC is not going anywhere without Duke.

NC State I think is actually a part of the UNC system. They’d never leave either although they’d fit in well enough I think.

If we have to add teams, these would be two of my highest picks. I hate the idea of adding more teams though. The thing's too big as is. I'd rather play UGA, Florida, Vanderbilt, South Carolina more often than play Missouri or Texas A&M every year.
That's not a shot at either of those programs. I just don't know many people that are fans for them because they aren't truly in the southeast.
One of my biggest pros of CFB over NFL is that you actually know and interact with true fans of your rivals because the conferences are regional, but that's being thrown aside for more money that just gets wasted on practice facilities and coaches salaries.

I don't really get this line of thinking. UNC and Duke can still schedule each other in basketball and play two times a year.

If we played 3 cross-divisional games (including permanent rivals) with two teams added, we'd end up playing more SEC west teams than we are now.

Is swapping them for Zero tradition Mizzou and weird Cult A&M an alternative?

10-4. Then we would have at least one team from each of the 13 Confederate states. My line of thinking precisely.

There's no way in hell UNC would go into a conference where they don't have full control.
They're the basketball version of t.u.

Arizona and New Mexico don’t have historically strong football

I doubt either will ever leave the ACC unless it collapses.
Just grab one of East Carolina/App State to get the North Carolina TV market, snag Cincy to get Ohio, and go to a pod system for football scheduling.
ECU and App have a great fanbases considering their normal schedules and would quickly surpass UNC/NC State in football upon joining the SEC.
Cincy would be a somewhat decent-ish basketball program to add and would give schools like Tennessee and Kentucky a much better ability to recruit in Ohio which in turn should cause Ohio State to slide.
Of course, the true baller move is to say frick geography and add Colorado in all sports and Hawaii in football only. Then we get SEC football until 2 in the morning and killer vacation destinations during the football season.

North Carolina wouldn’t move without Duke. Think basketball. And the SEC is big enough as is. No more expansions

Might as well add Ohio state, Clemson, Oklahoma, and Texas and just Succeed from the NCAA.

We would have to Have one Big 6 school in each division imo. we could make it work tho; LSU(west), Bama/AU(south), Tenner(north), UGA/UF(east).

How about get back down to 5 or 6 twelve team leagues.
Posted on 5/18/20 at 6:23 pm to jcolding41
We have too many as is.
