Where Does FSU Go if Power Five Conferences Realign by Geography?

FSU will play in the ACC for the 26th straight season in 2017 – but if the power conferences realigned based on geography, would it stay that way?

For the last quarter century, the FSU football team has started and ended each season as members of the Atlantic Coast Conference. 60 percent of the time, the Seminoles have been champs of the ACC (15 out of 25 seasons) while being a major reason why the conference stepped its football game up and is now one of the Power Five conferences.

At the same time, the ‘Noles have also seen the conference expand to places like Louisville, Kentucky and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania – two places that are not even remotely near the Atlantic Coast of this country.

It’s not just the ACC who has done such a thing. From Utah in the Pac-12 to West Virginia playing schools from Texas and Iowa as a member of the Big 12, it’s a wonder that fans even know what part of the country their favorite program actually plays in.

With that in mind, what would the Power Five conferences look like if you realigned them based on geographical location? More importantly, would FSU stay in their current home or head to another conference. Lets break out the atlas and take a look!
