RE: What if: ACC thinks ahead of B1G, invites Penn State in late 80's as well as FSU

Without ND in that mix, they can be at best 13th but I just can't imagine Miami still being available because the SEC is going to take them over SC. The SEC main goal is the State of Texas. They will always take Arkansas to make a Texas school feel more at home. If the ACC picked up PSU and FSU, Miami just makes better sense to go to 12 over SC or VT. The SEC was not as attractive then as it is now, but with an offer, Miami would go and would likely stay. JMHO
If PSU goes to the ACC, there's nothing to say that the Big Ten would take Pitt. That conference is not the type to settle for #2 in a state without already having #1. So Big East football can form as it did in our timeline, meaning Miami is off the table for the SEC.
