Maryland in talks with B1G
If a deal is reached, Rutgers has agreed to follow.

The demise of the Big East as a football conference is on the horizon. For UL, if the Big 12 wouldn't take them when they took WVU, do you think they would take them now?

That said, the Big East champion will be the most likely of the "group of five" champs to get an automatic access bowl bid, so it's not like the status of the Big East changes *that* much, the difference is they have to be ranked higher than other conference champions rather than it being automatic. But most years I expect that to be true. Honestly it may be easier to get a bid that way than to win one of the big 5 conference championships. Although revenue distribution is another story altogether.

WVU, Pitt, Cuse, Rutgers and UConn? If this rumor holds true, each of these BE teams got out while UL was working hard to find a new conference.

Re: Maryland in talks with B1G
Andy Katz is now tweeting about UL being back in the hunt for the ACC spot. I still contend it will be UConn, and here's why:

And after a few weeks ago we all know the mysterious dark magic that Nate Silver possesses, so I wouldn't doubt him, lest ye be forever cursed.

Re: Maryland in talks with B1G
And the above is why you see WVU in the Big 12 rather than UL.
I think the Metro conference should reform

The ACC is about to die...apparently people are taking the Virginia Tech ADs recent comments as they are in serious talks with the SEC

Of course it's already being denied...no surprise there

Re: Maryland in talks with B1G
I do believe the SEC would love to have Va Tech along with one of the NC schools to get to 16.

Re: Maryland in talks with B1G
If that happens, Louisville would have its ACC ticket, for whatever that would be worth with what's left of that conference. Still a big upgrade though. Annual UL UNC basketball games would be epic.

Without Va tech and likely FSU, acc becomes another second rate conference...unless bball matters to you.

WITH FSU and Va Tech, ACC is on the threshold of second rate. I think the BE is top to bottom as good as the ACC this year. FSU is the best team in either conference, but after them ...
