PAC 12 Teams To ACC

T

Well they went and did it. There are now Pacific coast teams in the Atlantic Coast Conference. And that may mean the end of the PAC 12:

Stanford, Cal and SMU join the ACC, potentially cementing the death of the Pac-12

Stanford and Cal have found new homes in the Atlantic Coast Conference, leaving just Washington State and Oregon State behind in the Pac-12.

ACC adds Stanford, Cal, SMU beginning 2024-25

The ACC presidents and chancellors met Friday morning and voted to add three schools -- Stanford, Cal and SMU -- beginning in the 2024-25 school year. It will bring the league to 18 members -- 17 will play football full time in the league.

Now, I like the ACC, but doesn't it seem strange to have west coast teams in an east coast conference? Just sayin.'

So what does mean for Florida State?
 
None of it makes any sense. The team I root for, WVU, was accepted into the Big 12 years ago. Up until this year, when they renew their rivalry with Penn State, their closest opponent was in Iowa, forcing athletes to travel untold extra thousands of miles. Under an ideal situation, the conferences would be aligned geographically, but that is impossible due to the pursuit of the insane amounts of money that is available. Name/image/likeness (NIL), transfer portals and realignments threaten college football’s future, IMHO.
