The SEC would also move to 18 with Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Texas Tech and West Virginia.
The SEC/ACC rivalry end of season games would be enhanced with Texas/Texas A&M, Kansas/Missouri, and West Virginia/Pitt. Plus you could have TCU/Baylor as a season ender as well as Texas Tech/Oklahoma State. And of course the RRR would be guaranteed.

Nice try, but it won't work. We need one school to take a greater slice of DFW. One Oklahoma school gives us that. Texas Tech might give us part of that. All three are overkill. So that's one school that gives us a little bit of West Texas that we don't have. Two schools that give us exactly the same thing outside of brand and split 3.3 million viewers for double the cost, and a school that gives us a little over a million new viewers. That's a lose, lose. Rethink it.
