    The conferences are set for the next 10 years or so. Only the Big East has the TV deal left to negotiate so that's why they are the only ones looking at expansion now. Adding teams to the SEC would only take away money from those that are already there.

    That's why the Big 12 has no interest in expanding, more money for the 10 that are there now.

    I voted North Carolina, Georgia Tech, Florida State, and aTm.

    I want to see the SEC get so big it can secede from the NCAA...sign a new and bigger TV deal...have their own Southern Championship following a league tournament using the Bowls...and pay the players with money we get from the NFL for being their farm system !!! The NCAA has no credibility anymore and can shove it.

    Is that enough for you all to chew on?

    There's THREE MONTHS before kickoff so I thought I'd provoke lots of arguments in just one thread....bash away !!!

    :yelwink2:

    (By the way, we should all be watching SEC boxing and beach volleyball double headers on TV right now...instead of reading endless Memorial Day and smoking threads. :D)

    :geaux: For what it's worth, I voted for A&M in the west and Va. Tech for the east. A&M's a no brainer with the Houston area so close and I just thought the Hokies would be an intriguing fit/addition in the east. :LSU231:

    So... uh, .... lets see......

    So you were just thinking about this and the moon aligned with Jupiter the tide was at just the right ebb, a bull frog jumped over the center line in the road, the mop bucket spilled and this post just showed up here?





    Okay I know you are a big ten fan so I will type it r EEEEEEEE AAAAAALLLLLLLLL slow.


    How the phuck did you post this if you weren't on a damn COMPUTER.

    You morons couldn't count to 11 a year ago and now you want to bring in more. Effing idiots. You could put all the teams in the country NOT in the SEC in the big whatever the hell you are now and you would still SUCK. Go Away.

    Another silly poll? Really? Wow. The lil-10 can expand to 20 teams, it won't matter. The SEC will still get their share of the tv contracts, high profile recruits, etc. They're not going to change what's won the last 5 BCSNCG's, and why would they? To keep up with the Jones's? Doubt it.

    They can add all the teams they want, they will never be the SEC. The only thing the SEC needs to do about a conference adding Maryland and GT is laugh.:thumb:

    Why would they need to?

    You really should stick to talking about the WNBA , there is absoulutly no reason for the SEC to add anyone.
