Why does no conference want

Oregon State or Washington State? Seems like those 2 are better Football schools than Stanford and Cal. ESPECIALLY CAL.....

Relatively small TV markets. Salem/Eugene, Or and Pullman, Wa won't be dragging in the needed numbers of eyeballs anytime soon if ever.

Oregon St. is in Corvallis which is even smaller than Eugene.

Nobody has a spaceship to be going back and forth to Pullman or Corvallis. 🚀

Eugene is only 30ish miles away. LMAO. Corvalis is much like Clemson in the college town atmosphere.

Clemson is part of the 37th largest TV market.***

Which is dadgum dumb IMO but when $$$ is the driver of the train some programs get shafted that aren't already in the club.

If I were the ACC, I'd go ahead and lock them in and round out the Western pod. Then add 3 more schools in the SMU vicinity to have a Gulf Coast/AAC Division (like Tulane, South Florida, and Tulsa).

Then at least scheduling can seem a little better and you're prepared for when Clem/FSU/UNC/etc leave.

Then the ACC can be the SEWN Conference.

Because the father of the Beavers' QB is a bit overbearing?
