[QUOTE="TownesVanZandt_rivals, post: 130995300, member: 1606648"] The gap between them and the Big 12 is much larger than that. Plus you have schools in the conference that don't have fanbases. Not a great idea. SEC works because you have rabid fanbases who watch all sports and deeply care about not just college football but the SEC in general. You don't have that in the ACC but you have similar schools that are in SEC states. The ACC network and ACC only benefits the SEC because it will put the ACC out of business with the current model in the South. Attaching themselves to the Northeast was a horrible idea and a last ditch effort made by basketball schools. ACC is ran by basketball schools in a football world. It pretty much allows the SEC to have their pick of the ACC. But those schools for the most part are trying to stay together even if they have to throw someone off the ship. [/QUOTE]
