Kansas is literally UNC's more evil doppelganger sharing chancellors, coaches, etc., etc. But they are so far away they would need a partner and the only school I can think of that fits the fill is Mizzou. Adding KU and Mizzou to the ACC is a break even deal, but it allows the SEC to add Texas, OU, and TT. I can't imagine Mizzou going for that change but it would give their football program a boost. ACC/SEC crossovers could include Kansas and OU as well as Mizzou and Arkansas.

The SEC would be undisputed number one with those 16 and the Big 10 a distant 2 with the ACC on their heels.

Hmm, if you made 4 pods:

ACC West - Kansas, Mizzou, Louisvile, GT
ACC South - FSU, Clemson, VT, UVa
ACC Piedmont - WF, NCSU, UNC, Duke
ACC North - Pitt, BC, Syracuse, Miami

SEC West - TT, Texas, OU, Arkansas
SEC Gulf - LSU, Ole Miss, MSU, TAMU
SEC East - UF, Auburn, Georgia, Bama
SEC North - SC, TN, Vandy, UK

Summer boredome, what else is there to do?
