I agree with you. The B12 have zero teams that anyone is interested in; they have quantity, not quality. 

The big 12 is probably a better football conference but most of you being east of the Mississippi would rather play schools east of the Mississippi.  Quality is better in the Big 12 but you would never know it because you are not interested in the schools west of you and you don’t watch or know anything about the big 12.  I get it, and if I lived east of the Mississippi I would feel the same way.

Personally, I think as more schools file suit the ACC should start negotiating reduced exit fees with schools that likely have spots in the P2. The absolute worst case scenario for the ACC is having a judge determine the GOR is unenforceable. If that happens it’s going to be tough to hold it together.

The ACC would get nothing from the schools going to the P2, and some schools will bolt for the B12 for stability if there’s no penalty. If there’s still a question of the enforceability of the GOR it will likely keep schools that may go to the B12 from challenging it as the reward doesn’t outweigh the penalty.

We are all on the same page however saying the ACC is better without FSU and Clemson is simply inaccurate.

Agree 100% and I strongly suspect this is the anticipated end game. But how soon do they get there?
