Eh not right now you dont. I say that as a gator too :francis::scust:

We all know that changes over time when defenses figure out the offenses. It ain't really about the defenses being bad. The strongest offenses come from the teams with the most talent. LSU, and bama have had more talent than other teams the last 2 years. A really good quarterback also is required. The defenses will come back and it will be partly because of stronger talent on the defensive side along with not so good quarterbacks on the offensive side. We held LSU down and would have beat them if we had offense in 2019. Defense will always show back up in the SEC.

Wrong
Baylor has a medical center which fits the ACC.
Highly academic
Sport success.
National champs at Basketball. Top 10 team in Football.

TCU don't really have what the ACC generally covets. Baylor does
Baylor also has multiple scandals, TCU doesn't .

TCU has a metro area. Baylor has Waco. If getting a larger reach is part of deal, TCU would get the call before Baylor. But it’s the ACC so they’ll make the wrong choice :manny:

The last post I read which is the one I quoted seemed to be insinuating 6 teams were needing to leave for dissolution.

The by-laws state that a simple majority is needed for the dissolution to occur.

10 teams
6 is majority
OU & Texas is gone
Kansas & ISU likely going to B1G

Only two more needed.

What I hope happens is WVU and OSU find homes so it can be dissolved because the Texas schools are about to litigate.

That’s the main part right there. TCU will “deliver” the DFW. Baylor delivers you a small town on the Brazos. Advantage TCU.

Its 4 and not 6. UT and OU only needs 2 more teams to leave.

You could say the same for Arky and Vandy :hhh:
When I was talking P5 program, I meant overall in athletics

Arky and Vandy both excel in programs that matter to this region that aren't just football, plus Ark now has some pretty relevant football history with our new additions

They had their chance. Pass.
if FSU and Clemson came in say, 2011, SEC woulda tried to bounce already imo

The natty would've been in reality taking place there every other year (and in hypotheticals, every year, almost every week :mjlol:)

Name this history past the days of Jerry Jones and Jimmy Johnson playing oline for them? Humor me
