- NC State is an outside chance to get into the SEC or Big 10 if/when the ACC implodes. But it also looks like their floor is the Big 12, which puts them in a considerably better position than many of their fellow conference members. But how will being coupled with UNC impact where they end up?

Which conference do you think NC State is in in 5 years?
Hopefully in an ACC break away conference with FSU and Clemson.
I like these interviews with the different ACC fans, keep em coming.
NCSU is an interesting case study; they do pretty good in football, frequently sell out, good game day atmosphere, but their tv ratings are in the lower half of the ACC. I think it comes back to being in a state that is lethargic about football.
Doing my best. Finding the guests is the hard part.
And yet NC is a desirable state for these conferences to get into.
Selfishly I want to see UNC go to the SEC.. SEC won’t want 2 North Carolina schools..
That would leave NCState to stay in the ACC or join the Big12..
Realistically I see UNC to the BigTen… that opens a door to the SEC for NCState but I think there might be better options for the SEC..
Agreed, UNC is a major domino that has to fall before many of the other next moves can be determined. I could see them in either the SEC or Big 10.
NCSTATE grad of 82. I was there when Bo Rein won the last ACC championship. Didn't even go to a bowl..They were 7-4 overall and 5-1 in the conference. Got the defunct Garden State Bowl and decided to stay home. My guess is that (a) State will tether to UNC to the SEC, (b) UNC will go to the BIG and State will go to the SEC, or (c) State will go to the BIG 12 if UNC goes to the SEC, or (d) State will stay in a reformulated ACC sans Florida State and or Clemson. The wildcard is the NC BOG and their take. Right now it's a mess. It will work out. I believe that ultimately 48 to 64 teams will be in the power whatever and State will be in that mix. This is the first re-alignment of several. I believe that behind the scene stuff is going on we are not aware of.
There's so much going on behind the scenes, which makes predicting this impossible. But I do think your scenarios have all seem realistic.
My question to this state podcaster, Stare and Carolina has been in the same conference with Duke in football for some 70 years , the Southern conference and the ACC, by the history of those conferences, their were 30 Conference Championships won by these 3 Universities, NCWon ( 7 ) Carolina Won (7) Duke ) 17) , now who looks more prevalent in Football.? Look it up , see for yourself!
But perception is reality. If you asked 100 random college football fans who had a better diurnal brand between NCST and Duke, in guessing the vast majority say NCST.
UNC fan lol but I could see our rival taking one of two paths. One with the heels to the SEC. Two, to the BIG 12 solo. It’s complicated in North Carolina it really is…I think NCSU will have to go in with UNC to the BOGs to file suit. Is NCSU willing to do that?
Same question I have. You don't think UNC to the Big 10 and NCST to the SEC is a possibility?
Carolina hasn’t won an ACC Championship since 1981 season! They are no good in football!
NCS would be like UNC, USC,Vanderbilt ,just another team for the big boy to beat up on
But that's what they want. Schools that bring in value because of good enough brand and market but won't actually threaten to dethrone them.
@@JohnOakley-nc7pg yes I am aware the last time UNC won the ACC. I am not claiming UNC is a blue blood in Football, but a solid program yes. When you have so many other titles in so many other sports it’s hard to be elite at everything.
Good gracious. I’ve been an NC State fan my whole life (over 40 years). Could we get someone that’s a little more positive representing the Pack? This guy is an Eeyore and everything is doom and gloom with him. So pessimistic. Sheesh!
What's your more optimistic take on NCST in realignment?

Thanks for the lead.
@@saturdayswarriorbyu I think his overall prediction is probably pretty close. If I had 3 guesses, it would be 1) UNC and State to SEC as a package deal, 2) UNC to Big10 and State to SEC, 3) State to Big 12 regardless of UNC. I agree I don’t think State is left out; Big 12 is the floor.
I just thought his overall tone was pretty negative and down. He was very down on NC State leadership for last 20 years, and while I agree some of that is warranted, Debbie Yow did a tremendous job in raising our overall athletic program. He was also very depressed about the thought of competing in the SEC. And while some of those teams might be a step up in competition, you can’t be the best if you don’t compete with the best consistently. I am excited about the trajectory of the program and I am optimistic in the future rather than pessimistic thinking we will never compete with the SEC.
I don't see them going to the same conference. And the NCST fans I've met tend to be very frustrated. It seems like there's a lot of potential and expectations that aren't met
Has nothing to do with standing out. They are mid Tier 2 in terms of media value.
What do you mean? It was a long conversation, so I don't remember specifically what you're referring to.
@@saturdayswarriorbyu read your headline
😅
Shocker an NC State fan thinks it makes no sense to leave the ACC. Being behind Purdue, Northwestern, Vandy, and Miss St over 40 million a year is insanity. Think about how that will accumulate over just a 5 year span, and how much it will benefit the other programs from that school.
I'm not a fan of how realignment is shaking out either. And while it is insane those schools will pull in so much money, I'm not sure they will ne able to put it to good use regularly.
Is there anything to be positive about, NCS has even played in conference championship game since 1979, why would you expect them to be more positive about football at this school!
They feel like a school that have a chance to at least be competitive in most games.
Duke would be more value than NCS nationwide, they haven’t won a Conference Championship since 1979 and hasn’t even played in a conference championship game since then, so what are saying, think about what you are saying, they are a football want to be at best but always falls short, just Carolina does!
So where do you think Duke should end up? And NCST?
