The northeast teams that are in the B1G and ACC should be in a northeast conference - Penn State, Syracuse, UConn, BC, Maryland, Rutgers, WVU, Pitt.
Adding UMass and Temple makes it a solid 10 school NE conference.
Nah...we good
Rather have Cincy and Louisville
Add those two schools to get to 12. Everyone would forget about B1G, BE and ACC.
Cincinnati and Louisville are midwest culture and do not belong with the northeast schools. Those 2 and Notre Dame belongs in the Big 10.
You got to wonder if the Big 10 would add schools that have no football that are AAU type schools?
For the same reason - culture - that Cincy and Louisville don't belong in a NE conference, the same applies to Notre Dame, they don't belong in any conference.
And to a certain extent, Cincy and especially Louisville, don't belong in a pure midwest conference either. Both are odd fits, both almost borderline between the midwest and upper south. They don't really naturally fit anywhere.
