Brando just reported it will be a formality when they vote tomorrow on accepting the two schools into the conference.

Big East will implode, leaving many teams hanging...may also join ACC, allowing FSU and possibly others to vacate ACC for SEC.

here already has been speculation that West Virginia would be a target for the SEC to balance out that conference and grow to 14 members if and when Texas A&M finally joins.

The other football-playing members of the Big East are Rutgers, Connecticut, Louisville, South Florida and Cincinnati.

I really don't want WV but if we were forced to pick any of these left they look like a steal

All of these teams have a better defense than Auburn.  That is the only thing of interest to me.

In the end, Texas could be standing alone with their dick in hand. And ESPN will wonder what the fuck they were thinking with the LHN.
