Yesterday in the other thread I brought up how much I liked the idea of Vandy in the ACC. I like the idea of strong, private academic institution together. 
 
That said, it will never happen. The SEC $ is overwhelming compared to the ACC. No way they leave that for a "better fit". Realignment is about dollars and cents, not about Books and Class Size. 
 
Richard, I appreciate your insight into your alma mater, Vandy. Very interesting. I have to both agree and disagree with you on your assessment on SU. I agree with you that most people believe that the Big East receiving a automatic BCS bid is crazy. I even think it is. WVU proved a lot of people wrong last year and in the past. Now however, I fear Rutgers or UofL will get smacked. 
 
I disagree however that SU is completely irrelevant nationally. SU is a national brand. We have a ton of alums and fans in basically every major city on the east coast and even a lot in LA. Look all of the pub our BBall team gets. The reason SU FBall hasn't got the pub is because we have been down. If we ever returned to being a usual 8-10 win team, we would be completely relevant. WVU got a ton of pub early in the year in the BIG 12. If we make a run next year we would get the same publicity.
 
Also, there is no doubt the top of SEC is the best in CFB and its not even close. However, the bottom 6-8 are just as good as SU.
