Miami wouldn't bolt the ACC without Florida State. Florida State would bolt the ACC...so would Georgia Tech.
So you could subtract Cincy and UCF...and add FSU and Ga Tech. If ND would play in that Big East version you could also dump Boston College.

That would be a decent league.
NEW BIG EAST (10)
Florida St
GA Tech
Louisville
Miami (FL)
Notre Dame
Penn St
Pittsburgh
Syracuse
VA Tech
West Virginia


NEW ACC (10)
Boston College
Clemson
Duke
Maryland
NC St
North Carolina
South Carolina
UCF
Virginia
Wake Forest

I like it. The Big Ten is now down to 12 with the subtraction of Maryland and Penn St. I guess I could give Rutgers to the MAC, but they might get offended. Why don't we just make Rutgers an independent? This is fun.

Those would be pretty decent.

That new Big East would be strong in Football, Baseball & Basketball. Probably would be top heavy in
Basketball and Baseball, but it would have 10 strong programs in Football. (A couple are outdated
but competitive.)

So, this is your set-up for a collegiate version of Fantasy Football?

The correct answer to the number of football teams in the Big East conference is 0

C) Most of those teams would have to pay out the wazoo to leave their current conferences and/or leave their television rights behind.

Waaaayyyyyyyyyyyyy too altruistic.

Anyone that thinks money isn't the biggest factor lives in a low rent dreamworld.

It would be a 6th power conference and alleviate the ridiculous amount of teams in the ACC and Big Ten. I know it's far fetched, but it'd be pretty cool. You can add/subtract which teams you'd like to see in it/out of it I guess. Big XII model. Round robin schedule and top-2 play for the conference championship; and the winner gets a spot in my 8-team playoff.:nod: Notre Dame to the Big Ten? Take a team out of my new Big East and insert Notre Dame? I've always thought ND belonged in the Big Ten and Penn St should have been in the original Big East, but politics or something interfered.

Boston College
Cincinnati
Louisville
Miami (FL)
Penn St
Pittsburgh
Syracuse
UCF
VA Tech
West Virginia

We'd get to see Penn St-Pitt-West Virginia rekindled among other rivalries of yesteryear. I know the prick bastards who run the show don't give a shit about that, but it'd be awesome as hell. Granted this would require a little tweaking of other conferences, but that's a topic for another day.....or if you want to discuss it now go right ahead.

Oh no you fuckers get Rutgers and we keep Penn State

I'm glad someone snuck in ND. I was going to suggest it.
