Atlantic Coast Conference

The current lineup of Power Five conferences includes three 14-team leagues, followed by ones with 12 and 10. But if the SEC hits the 16-team threshold, at least one more conference has to do so as well.

For the easiest method of doing so, it would either have to be the Big Ten or the Atlantic Coast. I ultimately sided with the latter, as they have a more Southern demographic (and the South loves its college football).

With that in mind, the two obvious candidates were Central Florida and South Florida. Could the ACC push for teams in other Power Five leagues? Yes, but why complicate things?

Both UCF and USF have seen some rather decent days within the past five years, and they are obviously good options in regards to geography.

The Southeastern Conference would be the only other logical choice for these two, but those boys clearly have bigger fish to fry. Also, the Atlantic Coast will be a much warmer welcome to teams of their current skillsets.
