Well fans could have had Michigan vs. VT, but Michigan opted


drop VT at the 11th hour so it could schedule another home against Arkansas State. As a result, VT was forced to agree to a home-home series with Middle Tenn. Likewise, it appears the Penn State-VT home home series may be dead too since Penn State didn't hold up its end of the bargain by agreeing to play the game @VT. While it sounds good on paper and on message boards that teams will get to play OOC games against more quality opponents under this Alliance, I will believe it when I see it.

Now I do think some teams may end up benefiting more than others from this Alliance. For example, the tier 1 Big Ten and Pac-12 schools may agree to home-home series with Clemson, FSU, and Miami that they may not consider doing prior to the Alliance. However, the other ACC schools may not see the same increase in tier 1 Big Ten or Pac-12 opponents.
