The ACC now adds Cincinnati and UCONN ... divisions split into old ACC vs old BE.

OR

B1G picks up UCONN and Boston College, ACC picks up Cincinnati, and the entire major eastern seaboard to the Mississippi River is now settled.
If I HAD to pick between those options, then I'd go with #2.
ACC will not go to 16 without ND. IMO I think our futures are locked together.

I could see UCONN to the B10
I could see UC to the Big12

I could see a Navy/G-Town combo and ND to the ACC.

If 16 is the end game I do not think ACC moves to 16 without ND in a conference. I think we are hitched to that wagon.

the B1G is not going to take UConn.

AAU?
Football power?
Contiguous footprint?
They took Rutgers anything is possible.

Boston College is the piece that no one wants. If B1G really wants to expand to the east, they will add Syracuse and UConn, then NYC market is secured.

Yawn.

But seriously. Geographically compatible? Yup. Academic fit? Undoubtedly. The fact we're viewed as being Little Sisters of the Poor in football still is sheer insanity. Times have changed we're no juggernaut but we're far from a lightweight. Syracuse should know that very well after the last 10 years. Were we taken mostly because we reside in the 11th most populous state and our home market is the largest media market in the country? Yes. But if we had no on-field upside and weren't institutionally an exact match that wouldn't have mattered, we wouldn't have gotten in.
