5 football games against ACC opponents? Pitt, Miami and BC will be three. I wonder about the other 2
also, so much for the death of the ACC
EDIT: forgot about Wake. I guess that leaves only one other ACC opponent

5 football games vs. ACC teams each year, wonder if that will be against the scrubs or against FSU, Clemson, etc.
I don't think that Miami game is annual. I think that it just ended up on their schedule this year.

Yeah, I wonder if it puts Louisville back on the table. Then again, our pie is only being split 10 ways, right now. What incentive is there to give up part of our piece?

you're right. It looks like they rotate through the ACC, playing different teams, but always BC, and now Pitt.
And how soon before the Big East Collapses? It doesn't seem like ND had much to do with the BE in football. Since Conference reallignment is solely dependent on football and revenues, maybe the BE survives? Unless the BIG12 poaches a few. But as was discussed ad nauseum in the super huge mega thread (that we all so dearly miss) what would a BE team bring to the table? Not much. Personally I'm glad we don't have the drama of ND. We are now in a different era of Multi Fricking Million dollar big12 tv deals without them.
Big 12 needs to get back to 12 with big east schools quickly before the good ones are snatched up.
I bet Dodd's has already started binge drinking down in Austin! Anger, then denial, then negotiating, then... wash, rinse, repeat. Guaranteed he's soaking his sorrows. But maybe this means Texas will join the ACC next...
The only service academy they play this year is Navy and I think that series will continue. They're already playing 3 ACC games (Miami, BC, Wake) so it's only two teams to replace of this years schedule. BYU, OU, Pitt, Mich would be the four most likely to be replaced IMO.
edit: stupid Pitt. I forgot they were ACC now. So that means they only have one more ACC game to add and I think BYU or OU would be the prime candidates to not be on future schedules.
B1G...........if they played 5 ACC schools + 3 B1G + USC, ect...........they would win 3 games / year.
