Pro-Big Time Matchups

I've touched on this a bit already, but some of the games FSU would play in the SEC would be massive. FSU sees it every season with Florida on its schedule, and we've seen what neutral site games against LSU have done over the past two years. However, imagine what a night home game against LSU would have been like in 2022. What about a night game against Alabama in Doak Campbell Stadium in 2017 instead of a neutral field?

The atmosphere in games against Auburn, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Texas, Texas A&M, Ole Miss, Georgia, and others. The SEC has fewer teams that would be duds when compared to the B1G. FSU fans wouldn't care about games against Indiana, Northwestern, Rutgers, Maryland, Iowa, Minnesota, Purdue, or Wisconsin. Many of those games would feel like ACC games because of the distance between the schools. Those fans wouldn't travel well to Tallahassee, nor would FSU be excited about traveling to those places.
