The appeal is the fact that the Big 12 will get another crack at a contract before the ACC gets one and the ACC is 100% going to blow up when 2036 gets here. I am not knocking the ACC, it is still a really solid conference, but the problem it has that the Big 12 doesn’t have now that Oklahoma and Texas are leaving is that there are haves and have nots in the ACC, by a wide margin, and the haves want out.The ACC is vastly superior to the Big 12 in terms of football product and football powers, plus likeminded highly competitive academic institutions. There’s no contest there. Remember it’s college presidents that make these decisions. Why would any of these schools choose the Big 12? What’s the appeal?
Also, the PAC schools would give the ACC Network valuable product for Pacific time zone TVs and for the 11pm hour during basketball season, etc.
