If the ACC falls apart I could see the SEC going after VA Tech.

I don't think so. The B1G would be at 14 just like the SEC. If the Big XII was thinking about going after a potential get though, that could push a move.

Bringing in FSU would decrease the value and relevancy of the SEC imho

We stand no competitive advantage by having them join. We would still play them every year and they would get all the perks of the SEC.
Also the SEC as a whole doesn't want them. We beach out for new teams by going into new states. North Carolina or NC State makes the most sense.
Oklahoma State also might be nice

FSU carries absolutely no value in any way that matters.

The SEC just spent a ton of money adding a&m/mizzou.
No reason to go through that because the big tens adding two mediocre teams

It's actually going to be about 25 million after they go to court. Kevin Plank could wipe his ass with 25 million.

This is the logical choice. 2 new states. 2 new markets. Both are football schools. Geography. Large fan bases.

B10 alum here, you nailed it.
IMO B10 is waiving the white flag. We'll never catch up at football so they're just trying to exapnd their crappy product in new markets for more cash.

Then move to four 4-team divisions...(source: outkickthecoverage.com)
3-2-3 Schedule (3 divisional, 2 permanent, 3 rotating)
(Permanent Division Opponents in Parentheses)
SEC East
Virginia Tech (Missouri and Texas A&M)
NC State (Missouri and Miss. State)
South Carolina (Arkansas, Vanderbilt)
Florida (Georgia, Tennessee)
SEC South
Tennessee (Florida, Alabama)
Georgia (Auburn, Florida)
Kentucky (Miss. State and Texas A&M)
Vanderbilt (South Carolina, Ole Miss)
SEC Central
Alabama (Tennessee and LSU)
Auburn (Georgia and LSU)
Ole Miss (Vanderbilt and Arkansas)
Miss. State (Kentucky and N.C. State)
SEC West
Missouri (Virginia Tech and N.C. State)
Texas A&M ( Kentucky and Virginia Tech)
Arkansas (South Carolina and Ole Miss)
LSU (Alabama and Auburn)
This sets up a Final Four type semi-final with the division winners (in Dallas and Atlanta?) that would make a fortune!
