Ooof. I suppose the only interesting part left will be the branding and terms. Although, since 18 seems to be the new 16, and the ACC may have secured itself as a going-concern, the B12 might want to crunch some numbers to decide if there's a payout price that would make sense.

Damn. Feel bad for the fans.

If you look at South Carolina's schedules from when we were independent, we had so many cool matchups every year. We played so many great regional programs but still managed to pepper in some home-and-homes around the country. I frequently wish we still had that freedom in scheduling, which makes me a little mad that we've been in the SEC my whole life.

All those thoughts go out the window when I consider what happens to a brand like South Carolina in this realignment hell. We likely get left out in the cold like Oregon St/Washington St and wind up downgrading the program's status in a big way.
