No doubt in my mind now that WVU is coming to SEC.

If the Syracuse and Pitt rumors are true.

Can someone tell me why we'd want to add WVU?
Posted on 9/17/11 at 10:44 am to LSUlefty
FSU+WVU to the east (why would they go to 13?)
TAMU+? to the west?
BTW I hate the 16 team conferences....go to 14 and stay there

FSU is not coming. Florida won't allow it.

I bet TCU feels pretty dumb right now.

I think had they not jumped the gun, they could have gone to the Big 12.

WVU gets a ton of hate here, but I think they would be a nice fit.

1. Above-average football program
2. Above-average basketball program
3. Natural rival for Kentucky (states border each other and makes for good basketball matchup)
4. Eastern team to balance divisions with A&M's entry into the Western Division
5. Won't be blocked by other SEC members since it's not in an existing state

I think you are wrong. JMO....Who else is the ACC getting? Why would the just go to 13?

Just seems like we're settling for WVU.
Geographically speaking, they're not in the southeast. They're not a great academic institution. I don't see them pulling in new TV markets. Their only selling point is above average athletics and a rabid fan base.

Appalachia's not the southeast? WVU is south of the MAson-Dixon Line, unless the state has moved.

remember your history? West Virginia seceded from Virginia and joined the Union. Hardly a southern state.

But that had more to do with the people of the mountains hating those on the Tidewater. The plantation owners had frozen the mountains out of the House of Burgesses.

Does that mean we only want confederate states?

...no, just southeastern states. Maybe we'll be the only conference with a name that matches its membership.

This is probably a safe statement. It looks like the ACC is going to 14 maybe 16. No one is going to leave the ACC...so people can want FSU all they want, they are staying in the ACC.
WVU and Mizzu may very well end up in the SEC. The SEC now needs 1 or 3 more teams to keep pace with what is happening with the other Conf. So, expect the SEC to make a move in the next week or so to strengthen it's position.
