Given the recent news, who should we kneecap? Do we raid the ACC; do we pilfer the leftovers of the Big XII, or do we do a little bit of both? Personally, I would like Clemson, Florida State, Georgia Tech, and Tulane (a nice blend of quality programs, gimme wins, academics, history, regional and cultural ties, etc.). Plus, it shifts the center of the conference back towards Atlanta. Outside of that, I would like to see UNC, UVA, VA Tech, and either Duke or NC State. (Four divisions of five to six teams... if we go to twenty-four.) Finally, there's always an argument to be made about keeping an ally with the ACC (not that we really need it, but I've always liked the shared games and history).

Florida State...Clemson...N.C. State...Oklahoma State...Miami...Georgia Tech.

Notre Dame would NEVER agree to join the SEC.

If it goes to 20 I think it goes
FSU Clemson Louisville and Okie St

That eliminates the need for ooc rivalry games

24 you add Kansas vatech nc state Baylor.

Just one mans opinion that allows for conference only scheduling

Don’t expand anymore. IF SEC needs to expand to 20…add Clemson, FSU, North Carolina….and either Miami, Baylor, or Kansas (basketball)

The 2 questions the powers that be in the SEC must ask then act on to decide what is our next step.

The first question is does the league expand in/near its current footprint or should the league expand into new markets?

After they decide this, then they pick which schools will bring in the most money.

As much as I don't like them, I always thought the SEC & ACC would merge. I'm thinking B10 will be the cause of their Aliance separation.

Let’s get crazy and bring in Oregon and Washington. Nothing screams SEC like the pacific northwest.

Autospell on the phone. Then again, it's claimed stuff like "bgqyz" being a word.

Kansas, for sure, because of their rich basketball heritage.

I've always wondered why the SEC looks west. Florida state should have been in the SEC a long time ago. I'd also like to see GT back in. Then add Clemson, North Carolina, NC State and Duke.
Football goes without saying but basketball would then be off the charts with excitement.

In the end I think there are 3 20 team leagues
The SEC
The BIG
The Big East

There are only 60 'legitimate' FBS programs in the country, if that. Get the Troys, ULL's, UAB's, South AL's, MTSU's the hell out of FBS and let them play in a lower division for a championship.

This.

Only a few brands left that would not water down our league and they're all in the ACC or associated with it.

Don't knock it. An old member of the conference, excellent academics, and a nice, gimme win. Vandy of the SEC West potential!

Sub-vandy school in every regard. Being in the conference 70 years ago is not a good reason to be added today.
