[QUOTE="1979jacket, post: 949712, member: 2430"] I kind of feel like the game now is between the ACC and Big12. The PAC10 is dead and the SEC and BigI probably can't add value to their current worth by adding any more PAC10 teams. However the ACC and Big12 may be able to add worth to their conference and TV contracts with some of these PAC10 teams. The Big12 has a geographical advantage that might help them entice these schools. But at the end of the day, money will outweigh geographical advantages. Oregon, Arizona St and Washington should be top tier targets for both leagues and Arizona, Stanford and Utah could also add value. The others - Cal, Washington St, Oregon St and Colorado don't add much. If you add some of these teams can the ACC redo the TV contract and get a better deal? That would be the hope. So let's say the ACC adds Oregon, Washington, both Arizona teams, Utah and Stanford. They are now 20 teams and play a 10 game conference schedule with one every year opponent and round robin otherwise. every year opponent syracuse-bc pitt-louisv uva-vatech unc-duke wake-ncst fsu-miami gt-clem oreg-wash stanf-utah ariz-asu Sounds very appealing to me - adds regional diversity to the conference and interesting games but essentially maintains the integrity of the conference. Playing 3 PAC10 teams a year sounds good. [/QUOTE]
