If the B1G adds Notre Dame, Stanford, Washington, and Oregon, the Big XII needs to respond and add the Zona schools, Utah, and Colorado.

That finishes off the Pac12 entirely, and puts the Big XII in a position of power, relative to the ACC.

Should there be a solution to the ACC grant of rights, and the SEC figures out a way to poach 4 teams from the ACC to get to 20 (to match the B1G), that leaves the ACC reeling, and the Big XVI has a chance to also get to 20 to match the other big conferences.

This is one scenario.


B1G 20


SE20 (+ Clemson, UNC, Miami, FSU)


Big XX (+ Louisville, Pitt, UVA, GTech)


What do you think? Obviously, the B1G would also be looking to carve out a slice of the ACC, but if they are content at 20, this could happen.
