Make no mistake, most Big Ten coaches and ADs want to add a 12th team. The presidents will make noise about resisting to keep their faculty in check, but they know that the dollars point toward expansion. The trick is do they go West or do they go East?

I think the answer lies in whatever direction they think blunts the SEC the best. But whatever happens, the ACC has to be ready to response. If the Big Ten expands, the ACC will be forced to as well. And it looks like Big Ten expansion is only a matter of time.
