Losing GT and BC, for example, to the big 10 might not damage the ACC enough to pry FSU loose. The SEC following suit and plucking two more away just might. I root for this.
If the SEC plucked out UNC and Duke (not likely, but that's a rumor) along with GaTech and BC to BigTen, would that make FSU happier in the ACC? It seems they all hate the Carolina B-Ball schools. That leaves 10 teams. Would ABC/ESPN keep the same total money going to them? (like they did with the Big12) That would close the money gap (same size pie, bigger pieces). I mean, a 10-team FB conference of FSU, Miami, Clemson, VaTech, NC State, Pitt, Louisville, UVA , Syracuse, and Wake Forest with round-robin scheduling is probably better than the schedule they would play in an inflated 14-team conference with losers like Maryland, UNC, and Duke?
