It is probably the best compromise given the reality of the situation

If that is motion on the table, then it could be interesting to see how each school would vote. Would UVA still vote for it if it means not playing VT and/or UNC 4 out of the 6 years (assuming their schedules won't allow them continue the series as non-conference games)? What about the other schools (assuming an "important" rivalry has to be sacrificed for the good of the conference)? The reason I said "important" is because ACC fans may not think the rivalry as being "important," but the schools consider the rivalry to be "important."

Make believe world: If ACC were forced to join ACC.. go pod system? -- Suffhokian 07/13/2020 09:01AM

Scheduling with 4 Pods and 16 makes it so Pods can be geographical and -- Stech 07/13/2020 12:47PM

I think this works the best. -- HOO86 07/13/2020 3:23PM

UVA will be in the same Quad as VT, UVA could also schedule UNC OOC every -- Stech 07/14/2020 07:50AM

I would not assume that UVA would be placed in the same quad -- VTHokie2000 07/14/2020 10:38AM

I didn't say UVA would be in the same Quad as VT & UNC, in fact I don't -- Stech 07/14/2020 11:49AM

The WAC and ACC wouldn't be in different situations when it comes -- VTHokie2000 07/14/2020 12:03PM

If they went to 16 teams -- Suffhokian 07/13/2020 11:19AM

No way we want U Conn -- HokieinClemson 07/13/2020 1:22PM

Yeah. Couldn't find another that fit. Just wanted to illustrate it ** -- Suffhokian 07/13/2020 1:26PM

The #16 slot is solely reserved for ND -- EDGEMAN 07/13/2020 12:15PM

Since the ACC is already at 15 with Notre Dame for all other sports -- VTHokie2000 07/13/2020 12:31PM

Navy seems to me to be the logical choice. That game is always on ND's -- seekoHoG 07/13/2020 4:06PM

Navy as a football-only member or full member? -- VTHokie2000 07/13/2020 5:13PM

I honestly do not think ND will ever become a member of the ACC football -- seekoHoG 07/13/2020 7:08PM

Navy as a football-only member makes and I agree with your assessment -- VTHokie2000 07/13/2020 8:55PM

It's their choice...as long as it's not UCONN...lol ** -- EDGEMAN 07/13/2020 3:03PM

Hello USC or Hawai'i ;-) ** -- VTHokie2000 07/13/2020 3:23PM

This could be the rivals... -- Suffhokian 07/13/2020 10:24AM

Got to be 16 teams, IMHO. ** -- MrFantastic! 07/13/2020 10:16AM

That's makes it fun ** -- Suffhokian 07/13/2020 10:23AM

You could also lock in a rival opponent from each POD and it still works ** -- Suffhokian 07/13/2020 09:12AM

FWIW the WAC already tried the rotating pod system -- VTHokie2000 07/13/2020 12:25PM
