Both the Big Ten and SEC are at 16 teams with recent expansion that’ll officially begin next year, but both have long been rumored to continue adding to its footprint. With the uncertainty of the ACC, it makes a lot of sense that North Carolina and Virginia would be on the move.

I personally believe both the Tar Heel and Cavaliers would make great additions to the Big Ten. They aren’t necessarily within the Midwest but would overall align with a lot of the other schools in the league in both football and basketball.
