VT and UCONN to the Big Ten

If TCU is good enough to be sent to the PAC w/o Texas then its value to Texas might be higher than thought (after all, they were picked to replace Mizzou). Texas wants to play at least five games in the state of Texas. Games against TT, OU (RRR) and TCU every year would go a long way towards meeting their goals. They could play two patsies plus marquee OOC games against the likes of ND, Ohio State, Miami, Penn State, etc..

The two complications are obviously the Longhorn Network and whether the likes of Stanford can accept TCU as secular enough for their comfort.

Without OU or UT the B1G could make a play for VTech to get into the 757 recruiting area and further expand East. That would be at the price of the ACC adding two more AAU schools and another good football school in the Midwest.

So the team that has won back-to-back Big 12 titles in football and been to 2 Elite 8's and a Sweet 16 over the past 5 seasons is left out in your scenario? During the previous round of realignment I understood Baylor not making it in. But at this point, I don't see how a conference doesn't take them, whether it is the SEC or ACC. Just curious, why did you not have Baylor going to a P5 conference?
