Message: [QUOTE="Alsacs, post: 4171368, member: 652"] ESPN is why the SEC added Oklahoma and Texas. Conferences are run by who pays them. ESPN owns the SEC and they have the ACC as well. If ESPN got the SEC to do their bidding. It would soldify their other portfolio they own. ESPN doesn’t want NBC or Fox investing in college sports. It makes them pay more. If the SEC proposed that you must be in a conference to be eligible for the CFB it could get the votes from the ACC for what it wants the terms to be eligible for the expanded playoff the SEC wants. ND could join the Big Ten and it wouldn’t impact the SEC one bit. The ACC if it wants to make more money would likely need ND as the easiest way. The ACC can’t force ND’s hand. The SEC could. [/QUOTE]
