What is this I’m reading here about the coaches giving up in a bowl game? I’ve never heard of coaches giving up before. Their job isn’t that hard during the game.

They do know that 247 re-ranks transfers. None of those 5 star transfers are considered 5 star players anymore.

At least our 5 star guys aren’t busts from other teams that transferred because they couldn’t crack the rotation at the school who recruited them

The moment OU and Texas become members, UF instantly becomes the 8th best recruiting program in the SEC.

That's not opinion.

Adding Oklahoma and Texas will boost the SEC’s profile, but prepare for the competitive consequences: Emerson

The SEC would bolster its marquee conference label by adding two bluebloods, but it would come at the expense of some current members.

This is why I think you might see this get blocked. The commissioner is really gonna have to sell this to all current schools on why this will benefit them

I would think that as well but someone said there was some talks about them joining ACC or even Pac at one point as well.

Arkansas A&M and Mizzou are gonna vote no.

I think Texas used the Pac-12 talk as leverage in their contract with Big 12. But it would be quite interesting to see it get blocked after all this

There’s a few reasons it might get blocked but I don’t feel like wading through the expansion thread sewer. One major reason is the middle of the road SEC teams that get to reap the benefits of the ESPN tv deal might not be that stoked about their TV appearances getting bumped down from ABC/ESPN to ESPNU/SEC network. If Texas and OU join, that’s the last you’ll see of USCe, Tennessee, Kentucky, Missouri and others on any of the major networks.

At the end of the Day Money Talk, and BS walks. If they offer a bit more money do you think these lower SEC teams care about not playing on ABC/ESPN for recurring purposes maybe yes but other than that I would say they vote Yes. But I can see Old Miss or whipping boy Miss St. saying NO.

I actually hope it does. I dont think its good for CFB. We know preseason polls already put like 10 SEC teams in the top 25 even though some don't deserve to be ranked. This is how they skew the rankings to their favor. Add in those 2 schools and youll easily see 2-3 SEC teams every playoff.

The billions upon billions of dollars won’t make it a very tough sell… to the administrations at least. The football departments at a&m and fla might raise ****, but a spoon full of Benjamins makes the medicine go down.

We’ve seen 2 SEC teams in a 4 team playoff. If it goes to 12 team playoff with this conference expansion I think the minimum # will be 4 SEC teams in the playoff.
