Neither the SEC or Big Ten want Florida State in another round of college football expansion, according to a new report.
The latest speculation around college football realignment as Florida State looks to get out of the ACC, but neither the SEC or the Big Ten appear to be interested in the Seminoles...
Given that Florida State has taken the ACC to court in an effort to challenge the league's early exit fee, it has long been thought that the school would join either of those two conferences in the event of a settlement that allows it to make a move. But this new reporting sheds a more negative light on that prospect, with insiders in both conferences suggesting their respective superiors have no interest in Florida State.That includes presidents of three SEC schools and someone inside the Big Ten who noted that league's presidents have "no appetite" for adding the Seminoles.
Someone in the Big Ten noted that adding the school would "expedite more chaos," and that the conference is "staying away from expansion.", as a person in that conference told McMurphy, "unless there is some catastrophic development with the ACC and it forces into a decision."
