Dellenger, a senior college football reporter with Yahoo Sports, said he thinks the Seminoles and Tigers are considering the Big 12 as a fallback if none of their preferred scenarios come to fruition.  “The first option would probably be to get into the Big Ten or SEC,” Dellenger said. “The second option would be in some way to reform the ACC with a smaller number of teams. Where you would be in a financial advantage because you wouldn’t split the distribution, the TV distribution, with 18 [schools]. Maybe you would just split it with 10. So they could reform in a smaller group. “And option three is to probably join another league. Which would obviously be … there’s only one other Power conference league, and that’s the Big 12.”

This may top the dumbest realignment post (Twitter guy, not you @Cat941) I've seen around these parts.

I call ******** ...... on that page, maybe.

I would rather our university be associated with Stanford and Cal than the likes of Baylor or TCU.

I'd still be pretty happy joining the ACC, although it would be annoying to see FSU playing C. Florida on the regular instead of us. Thoughts?

They can have each other

FSU couldn't even prevent the ACC from adding Cal, Stanford, and SMU, but we're supposed to consider option 2 (kicking out 8 teams) viable? And apparently more viable than joining the Big 12, which is option 3? 

That whole thing is comical.  Don't negotiate with terrorists.  UT and USC proved that.  Just dilute FSU's vote more and put them in the back of the room until they worm their way out.  Then give them a kick on the way out.  

If ACC reduced teams, FSU is leaving anyway at some point and now you are the new PAC-2.

Oh and of course B12 is talking to FSU.  They are both trying to survive.  You talk to everyone, but it makes no sense to go there.  I'm sure we are talking to all 4 behind the scenes?

Yes, they are better off going independent.

Maybe they can go independent and form some sort of scheduling alliance with the ACC?

I say a similar thing about the famous 4th and 24 play at home vs. Houston way back when.  If we hadn't given up half the field on the kick return (we had a bad habit of that), it may have been a non-issue.

The reality is that there is never ONE play that loses a game.

It didn’t just lose a game it basically lost all the confidence that anyone had in CCS moving forward. That play was pretty much the beginning of a downward spiral for him & the program imo.

I think you're confusing that 2017 Houston game with the 2018 Houston game ....

Whores.  All of them.

We need a Tinder App for realignment.

In what universe does anyone think that the current Big 12 looks better than the ACC (minus FSU & Clemson, + USF, Memphis, & UCONN?) I would think the eventual TV deal for that ACC would always be higher than that Big 12 (better schools, better tv markets).
