The ACC will be getting paid so much less than the new SEC and B1G contracts will provide, there's not much chance of them ever keeping up.  Same was true of the PAC, which is precisely why USC and UCLA made the choice to jump.

@ELA , I'm not sure why you're looking back.

That being said, the only way we can go back is if these super conferences go to 20 programs in 2 ten-team divisions.....we'd have old-school conferences under a larger umbrella.  They COULD even keep their divisions separate (like AL/NL used to be in MLB), with the champs facing off in the CCG (a la the first few Super Bowls - NFL/AFL). 
So it's possible, but probably unlikely.
I'm not looking back, in the sense that those are independent conferences couple. I think the move is all over the major football schools merging together and abolishing conferences. Granted the SEC and Big Ten have no incentive to do that

Wouldn't be the first established rich guy to ditch what he had for a better looking pair

People are throwing out Clemson, FSU, and Miami if the SEC expands again.....but it would be next-level to get ND and UNC.  
Idk if Oregon and Warshington is a good idea for the B1G, but they are both AAU members.

The interesting thing about all of this is that the schools approached the conferences.  Both in UTA/OU and now USC/UCLA initiated talks to move.

This news dropped when the PAC commissioner is on vacation in Montana.

I'm calling it now, either USC or UCLA will lose to Maryland the first time they play.

USC and UCLA begin playing in the Big Ten in 2024.  Seems fast.

Well, at least we get a blue team.

There's gonna be some leftovers from the PAC. The XII should not have a problem getting to a higher number.

Stanford, Oregon (would rather have Cal here), Colorado and Washington to seal the deal and get to 20.

Leave the poor XII alone.

B1G West would be interesting.
