All this assumes that both the SEC and the ACC will stop at 14. Start w/ the best case.
Missouri decides to stick w/ the revamped B-12 leaving the SEC at 13. They will have to look east for #14 and that will likely come from the ACC. FSU does not seem happy with the quality of the football in the ACC, especially with Miami and UNC looking at sanctions. The addition of Pitt and 'Cuse did nothing to allay those feelings. The ACC will then be in need of #14 and UConn seems like the top candidate.
Worst Case - Missouri decides to stay with the B-12 and none of the ACC teams are interested in forking over the $20M, so the SEC rethinks it's position on WVU. The odds of this happenning seem pretty slim, as when you work your way down the ACC teams that may be interested in the SEC, I don't see how Clemson could ever turn down an offer from the SEC, and it seems to me that Clemson would be desired more than WVU.
