Oregon

Not one was in their conference 2 years ago.

 

[Jetskies]

remember when we were climbing up in the standings in the UConnference, a year or two ago?
that was silly.

glad we did away with that, and the husky revolution/reload marketing campaigns.
Just fly low, and go beat somebody. Which we are starting to now.

I'm sure the ACC is thrilled with the prospect of SMU winning that conference.

3 of the top 4 in the polls are Big Ten right now. It really is a power 2.

 

[coachn]

Let's beat somebody like Syracuse.

And that’s a joke. PSU is not top 4. Not sure they’re top 10. They’d finish in bottom 1/2 of SEC

What they need is a dominant kick @ SS basketball program to shore up the ACC’s past reputation as the premier basketball conference and an OK but improving football program to shore up the rear.

The ACC is the next conference that is going to go the way of the PAC-12.

Isn’t the GOR designed to prevent that, and as far as I know FSU is still in the ACC despite all the lawyers they’ve hired.

The only non-ACC school that meets that criteria that the ACC would take is Kansas, and they're not leaving the Big12.

Oh, you meant UConn, well we know, or should know by now, they will never take us as they currently exist, just look at last year's CR choices.

Designed to prevent it yes. But won't prevent it for long. FSU and Clemson will inevitably get their way and go to some other conference like the Big 12 because the SEC probably won't take them. If schools like UNC supposedly is a target for the Big 10 if ACC starts to collapse. If I had to guess if FSU and Clemson finds a way out, UNC, Miami, Louisville are all gone as well as the sweetheart deal with ND. So basically it just becomes the original big east plus ACC scraps.

all respect to the SEC but the top 4 have loses to, Arkansas, Vanderbilt, and Kentucky those aren't exactly great compared to Penn State you don't lose 2 games or in the case of Tennessee, have a really bad loss on your schedule and expect to be ranked higher than a team who lost in a fairly competitive matchup to the 2nd ranked team in the country.

I could make the argument the SEC should get 8 slots. Have you watched any of the 3 u spiked out? 2 would beat PSU and my might if they caught them on the right day. Can you imagine PSU beating Tx, tenn, bama or ole Miss, not to mention uga or LSU or even USCe. Who is pedophile states sig win - the fighting Illini? WVU? Ridiculous
