The Atlantic Coast Conference has been trying to add three teams, with reports suggesting that SMU, Stanford and Cal could join as part of ACC expansion. However, if the conference is unable to get the three schools to join, there could be another conference that takes the remaining four Pac-12 teams.
College football insider Greg Swaim reckons there's the possibility that the Big 12 Conference could swoop in and take the Pac-12 schools if the ACC expansion falls through.
"There has been some talk that if the #ACC can't get a vote passed to add #Stanford, #CalBears and #SMU early next week, that the
Big12 may take all four remaining #Pac12 schools. I'm not ready to say that's accurate, but something is definitely going on."
While Swaim is not going to say that this is 100 percent accurate, the move would make a lot of sense. The Big 12 will also look to add teams to continue their own expansion, so it will be interesting to see if Swaim's report applies any pressure to the conference.

The B12 won't take Wazzu or Oregon State

Anyone who says they will is just lying. Ignore these false reports.
To the B12, they would represent 100% revenue dilution and bring nothing to the table except a couple of cool mascots.

well if the ACC doesnt add them the conference is gonna be a step child until the GOR expires. There are no better teams to add and no way to get extra revenue or angle to renegotiate the contract for more money. Clemson will be trapped in the ACC making 40 million a year.

It could be mentioning the Big12 interest is a ploy to get the ACC to let the 3 schools join.
