If the SEC expands it will be about gaining new TV markets. To me, there are five teams in the general area that will help with that.
WEST
Tex AM. (Houston, San Antonio and Austin markets)
Cincinnati or Louisville ( overall large markets getting into Big 10 country)
EAST
Va Tech or West Virginia (Don't laugh, but those two schools are in the overall Wash, DC market, as well as also in that corrider where millions live within 2 hours either way)
My preference?
AM and Va Tech
1. I may be wrong but I don't think FSU gains THAT much in TV. We already have the flagship school in Florida as well as LSU and the NO market for the Florida panhandle.
2. Miami wouldn't be a good fit. No one in that market even watches college football
