RE: Pros and Cons of SEC/ACC Realignment Scenario
So the SEC will go to 13 and the ACC to 15? I think scheduling and divisions are the real victims. That aside, more OOC rivalries would not be acceptable. Plus, no SEC school is going to walk away from the money.
But, to the spirit of the thread, what if there was a trade?
Let’s say a 3-school swap. I could see something like Kentucky, Missouri, and Vanderbilt joining the ACC with Clemson, Florida St, and North Carolina St joining the SEC. The conferences becomes a little more cohesive than they were. The ACC as an academic and basketball-first conference and the SEC as a football-first conference. If only two schools, then leave out Missouri and North Carolina St.
Divisions with 3-school swap:
SEC
West: Alabama, Arkansas, Auburn, LSU, Mississippi, Mississippi St, Texas A&M
East: Clemson, Florida, Florida St, Georgia, North Carolina St, South Carolina, Tennessee
ACC
Atlantic: Boston College, Kentucky, Louisville, Missouri, Syracuse, Vanderbilt, Wake Forest
Coastal: Duke, Georgia Tech, Miami, North Carolina, Pittsburgh, Virginia, Virginia Tech
