Lenville, if the SEC winds up with two Oklahomas I think that sends a message that the ACC is invulnerable.
At that point I think the Big 10 has to take two of these three: Iowa State, Connecticut, and Kansas. The obvious payoff to me is the last two. It appeases the West, solidifies the East, and establishes the Big 10 as the preeminent basketball conference.
Then West Virginia and Notre Dame all in for the ACC.
Texas, Texas Tech, and Kansas State to the PAC. Then the PAC chooses between Iowa State, Brigham Young, and one of the Texas privates for the 4th.
Now if 18 is the number things might change.
Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Virginia Tech, N.C. State to the SEC.
Texas, Baylor, T.C.U. and West Virginia to the ACC. Notre Dame all in.
ACC:
Boston College, Louisville, Notre Dame, Pittsburgh, Syracuse, West Virginia
Duke, Clemson, Georgia Tech, North Carolina, Virginia, Wake Forest
Baylor, Florida State, Kansas State, Miami, T.C.U., Texas, Texas Tech
SEC:
Arkansas, Kentucky, Missouri, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Texas A&M
Alabama, Louisiana State, Mississippi, Mississippi State, Tennessee, Vanderbilt
Auburn, Florida, Georgia, N.C. State, South Carolina, Virginia Tech
That maximizes markets, adds the cachet to the ACC that it needs to attract N.D. all in and enough of Texas to land Texas.
Now if we don't have to take OSU to get OU then there are many other combinations that might be preferable.
