NOT much longer until the season is here...I will be celebrating my birthday tomorrow FINALLY...then it's on to big 10 media days then to fall camp and then ohio state's 1st game at the end of next month...I can't wait next week will feel like the unofficial start to the new college football season.

It be nice to have Florida state but not nesseary

[@coganblaster]

Who makes up the OSU schedule?! They don't have serious competition until the 6th game. Where are the Georgias, Bamas, or FSUs? What a joke.

~03:20 Sorry but your guest seems more than a bit ignorant: a) The ACC would take a big hit i actual value related to football but would still be peer with the already Tier 2 BIG12. Wouldn't lose much relative to basketball, overall athletics, academics and prestige. b) Maybe L'VILLE was in Conference USA, but generally considered from OBE. c) UNC is the lynchpin for the ACC, which easily survives if "only" CLEMSON and FSU leave for the BIG12 to die anyway.

I think everybody watching this is smart enough to know that the Big Ten or the SEC are saying they’re not interested because Florida State and Clemson are still in the ACC! Pretty simple

[@tarheel7406]

They could have praised with qualifiers or been neutral, but the comments were negative.

[@philstamper4542]

I could see why the SEC don’t want Florida State and Clemson because they already have teams in those states, but the big 10 needs to get in the south so it would be a mistake for the Big Ten not to take Florida State and Clemson or at least one of them

[@tarheel7406]

I've maintained that the B1G has a compelling need to expand south, but how would CLEMSON and FSU fare on B1G islands and both would be big exceptions to the B1G's historical preferences.

Conferences keeping Florida State at an arm’s length might be to stay out of court…?

FSU won’t be added. 3 letters,AAU.
