I am going with history on that. Sure, neither is a problem right now, but both have won NCs this century and have been historically competitive. Not sure a UT fan should be talking down schools for underperforming.
This part of the article is what I've been thinking didn't make sense. Are current teams in the SEC and B1G willing to take a cut in order to accommodate them?Clemson and FSU leaving is not as bad as OU and TX leaving. FSU has been down for years ... their TV numbers were not good until last year. And Clemson has been down the last few years due to Dabo's stubbornness. All that said, it will impact the value of the ACC, and if FSU and Clemson get out then others may follow.
Dennis Dodd wrote an article today that really hit on the idea that he isn't overly confident that FSU and Clemson have landing spots. it was an interesting read. I'll see if I can find it.
And then what? Plans for Florida State, Clemson remain unclear if rivals successfully exit ACC
The two ACC giants are exploring an exit from the league, but what could happen afterwards remains a mysterywww.cbssports.com
Yeah to me it feels like Clemson may be praying for an SEC invite. I don’t ever see the B1G taking Clemson fair or not. FSU could one day become an AAU school. Doesn’t seem Clemson will and that seems to matter to the B1G. Truthfully I believe the SEC only takes FSU to prevent the B1G from taking them. Feels like Clemson will be stuck. If I’m the B1G I try for UNC and FSU if it truly makes sense $$$$ wise.Clemson and FSU leaving is not as bad as OU and TX leaving.

The way they did the CFP split is also kind of weird and cuts against adding more good teams. The SEC and B1G will get a certain percentage of the CFP pie no matter how many of their teams get in. Both already have enough good teams such that they will get 3-5 in each year. This means that FSU and Clemson can't tell the SEC or B1G, "put is in your conference and we can earn you more CFP shares." This is really counter to what I thought they were going to do, and makes me wonder if that was done to discourage ACC realignment.
everything comes in cycles.. Who knows if Kirby will even be there for the next few seasons? Panicking over a future of uncertainness is something.. and here I was lead to believe that SEC schedule is the SEC schedule.. Only to be in it now and learning there is a HUGE difference lolI am going with history on that.

Time will tell. So far lack of wins, and what drove numbers before hasn't meant much. Texas A&M, Mizzu, Texas and OU didn't come to the SEC to get more wins, Same for Nebraska , Maryland ect, with the BIG they went for more money and didnt give a rip who they left behind nor did the media partners who are paying out record high deals to monopolize the best brands. Yes I absolutely believe that a conference full of blue bloods would out rate and draw better attendance numbers than ones with match ups of Rutgers v Indiana and/or Vandy vs Mississippi State ect.
Your numbers are so far off it's not even funny. There is a reason that ESPN and Fox blanket TV slots during the CFB season. It's then old adage that I use in my business - "many streams make for a large river." It's true that the most money is driven by big games. But even the small games matter when there are hundreds more of them. Your scenario would drive away fans, exactly what the media people don't want. It would drive down the value of the Egg Bowl, as an example, that is one of thousands of small streams.
If Miami were to get back to its glory days, when it was competitive with FSU and Clemson, I think it would be a more attractive property. While the region doesn't matter as much, I think South Florida might be an exception. Just a feel.
Dude Clemson is a much higher rated institution of higher leaning than FSU.
I really didn’t like the consequences of arguing with my momma. Even if I thought I won an argument, I lost.
