Will get really awkward when that basketball bond between Duke and UNC gets tested.  UNC will probably get offered by one of the conferences but nobody is going to waste their time with Duke.
And if UNC turns them down, NCSU would jump in heartbeat to join a better conference and make tons more money.  How is the landscape of that state going to look in 15 or 20 years after NCSU in a football conference makes double what UNC gets from TV in hoops league?

UNC will bail on Duke in a second when it becomes obvious the ACC is doomed (maybe already obvious).  They aren't stupid.  Basketball is meaningless in this landscape.

Down here in ACC central, I just saw an FSU fan. He was younger than me and wearing an FSU polo fully tucked. I was wearing a KSU polo, untucked. I noticed him and said, "Hey, welcome to the Big 12! He looked at me, then at my shirt, and then he smiled. It was a glorious smile and he looked adorable as he said, "Man, I sure hope so."

EVEN THEIR TUCKS WANT IN!!!

Kind of an odd thing to say.

The SEC will want UNC and VT to get to their 16, right?  That leaves us with GT, Clemson, FSU and begging ND (but NCState if ND doesn't want in)?

Neinas is a god damn assassin. Every school in the Big 12 should build a statue of that guy for what he's done over the past 9 months.

i can see us taking Duke and FSU, GT, and ND. 

that would be my best guess.

I know I had the idea for SEC/Big12 arrangement similar to B10/P12 and the Rose Bowl.  I hope it was archived in this thread somewhere.

We already have KU fans. We don't need Duke fans. NC State fans are pretty cool. I actually thought I'd be a UNC fan when I moved here. I have ended up pulling for State. I quickly learned to hate Duke but not say anything about it since I already have to put up with all of the crap KU fans say.

EDIT- Except Beems. Love ya Beems!

Do we have to append Big12/SEC to the end of TSC?  If so, do we need an update for the SEC SEC SEC chant?

so there is some talk that if big12 and sec both go to 14 or 16 or whatever that we'll also like a rival school that we'll play every year in the other conf or something. ex-texas vs texas am, florida vs florida st, ku vs mu, etc.

we get arkansas right? i mean it only seems right.

I personally don't want to be saddled with them.  I mean, it would take the remainder of the year to get the smell out of Manhattan.  Just don't want to be associated unless it is for a high profile bowl.  LSU for the roadtrips anyway.

Does an OOC game against Arkansas hurt the image of our program?

I could see an Arkansas vs Baylor or TCU as an old Southwest Confrence rival type deal.
