Message: [QUOTE="Sherman20, post: 3912900, member: 6357"] As Hoo said, the Big 10 added Rutgers and Maryland 10 years ago because they were getting nervous about the ACC potentially coming after Penn State since it’s a better geographic fit and would make them a top dog. Adding Penn State and ND and getting Maryland back in the fold would make the ACC extremely competitive with the SEC and Big 10. But there’s probably too many moving parts and other variables to pull that off. It would have to be done a few years before the Big 10 TV contracts expire to get them to commit. The pitch to Penn State would be a better geographic fit, flagship status, and playing a good amount of games in fertile southern recruiting territory. [/QUOTE]
