The only reason the ACC hasn't been raided yet is their GOR runs through 2036(!) It was an awful 20-year deal that locks everyone together for way too long. They will fall further and further behind the SEC and Big Ten financially until they are put out of their misery as we get closer to 2036. A few years before then, their top brands will go to either the SEC or Big Ten much like UT & OU left the Big 12 a few years prior to their deal running out and USC & UCLA a few years before the P12 deal ran out. FSU, Clemson, UNC, and UVA will leave for sure. VaTech most likely too. Duke will have to hope that UNC demands they come too. Miami and GaTech maybe, but not guaranteed. The remaining six of NC St, Wake, BC, Syracuse, Pitt, Lville will be in trouble. Miami will be in, especially if they become AAU
Clemson is most likely SEC bound
FSU, North Carolina, and UVA could go either way--SEC or Big 10
I would like to see Virginia Tech, Louisville, and Pitt make it...Pitt and Louisville would at least get Big XII invites
NC State will get an SEC invite if UNC goes to the Big 10
BC, Wake Forest and Syracuse are screwed
Georgia Tech could get a Big 10 invite....AAU and the Atlanta market is attractive

If the goal is 20 teams, I think the SEC would ideally add FSU, Clemson, UNC, and UVA.
If the goal is 24 teams and we really are going to have just two power conferences, I think the SEC should do their best to lock the Big Ten out of the southeast by adding:
Miami, FSU, GaTech, Clemson, UNC, Duke, UVA, VaTech
Adding those top 8 ACC brands would give the SEC 24, lock down the entire southeastern area of the country, allow the ACC to fold since 8 of their 14 members would be gone, and ESPN to consolidate into just one conference network/channel.

Report released hours ago FSU is in talks with the Big Ten
