A Big 12 with FSU and say Clemson is not a much better football conference than the current ACC?  It's not even close.  And, it appears the paydays are going to be much better.  How is FSU pressured?  They are at a big financial disadvantage to schools in the SEC and Big 1G and soon the Big 12.  Do you think they want the ACC to try a grant of rights to lock up the existing schools given it locks in a much lower payout?  Don't you think FSU, if they decide to defect, wants to help choose who goes with them?  
 
As for attendance, you picked the bottom 3 Big 12 schools plus Texas.  FSU has suffered a declining trend for year.  As for 2011's attendance, FSU played Oklahoma at home and drew 84,392 and Miami drew 82,322.  There are at least 3 teams in the Big 12 that would pack FSU's stadium and if they took Clemson with them, that would be 4.  By the way, FSU's attendance in 2010 was 71,270 with Florida on the schedule and Wake Forest, BC, North Carolina, and Clemson the home ACC schedule.  Wake drew 61k and UNC drew 70k.
