RUMOR: Florida State working to leave ACC for Big Ten within next month
Rumor has it Florida State will be heading to the Big Ten.
Conference expansion and realignment has been major news storyline across college football for the last two years, and it appears another big shake-up is on the way. On Friday, a report emerged that Florida State is working to leave the ACC and join the Big Ten within “the next month.”
Blue Bloods Bias shared a report on the potential massive realignment news (which can be found below) on Friday, and it shouldn’t come as a huge surprise honestly. It’s been no secret Florida State has wanted to get out of the ACC, and the latest College Football Playoff snub may have been the breaking point for the Seminoles.
The Big Ten is set to add four teams in the upcoming year: USC, UCLA, Oregon and Washington. The additions will push the league to 18 teams. Should Florida State actually head to the Big Ten, my assumption would be another program would join them to make a 20-team conference. North Carolina, Miami (Florida), Virginia, Clemson and, of course, Notre Dame would be top contenders to pair with the Seminoles.
