Would Virginia Tech be a good fit and benefit from a move to the SEC?

Now that University of Maryland and Rutgers have officially joined the Big Ten, college football analysts have begun pondering the next schools likely to switch conference in the near future. Despite Techs refusal to leave the ACC, many see the Hokies as a perfect fit in the SEC.

Aschoff argued that, Virginia Tech has the atmosphere and culture that would make the transition over the SEC extremely easy. SEC fans have to be dying to check out a game in Blacksburg. And it's another market to tap into once you get Washington, D.C. secured.
