What's this?

If ACC could poach Penn State and convince ND to join...


...maybe wishful thinking but I think Penn State is a bit of a redheaded step child in the B1G right now next to tOSU and McChicken.

But to make that attractive, the ACC needs someone besides Clemson to step up in a more nationally competitive manner. Not that other teams aren't trying, but between Clemson, Miami, VT, FSU, and UNC, the ACC needs at least 2 or and sometimes 3 every season to be make some nationally relevant noise on the field. The ACC teams typically don't have the large fan following that drawings large viewership regardless of performance, so to get the ratings, the $$$ deals, and draw another big boy like Penn State and make it financially attractive to ND to get them to join, the ACC teams need to perform better to get the ratings between now and 2025 when it seems most of this is likely to accelerate.
