Message: [QUOTE="upstater, post: 4626474, member: 153"] You're missing the forest for the trees. There will be 2 national conferences. The B1G wants a presence in the southeast. It should be beyond obvious by now that they want to be everywhere. The SEC and the B1G are literally competing to take the prime real estate of the ACC. If one doesn't want to do that out of deference to Mickey Mouse, the other one will. The TV people have almost zilch to do with this. It's about the 2 goliaths of college sports. The idea that the states of Virginia and North Carolina would be considered a dilution to the states of Iowa and Nebraska? That's too much. This is prime real estate. We're talking about 2 national conferences with 40 total members. [/QUOTE]
