Close rivals 4 basketball generates revenue & cut expenses, ACC basketball
was completely built on this. That's why Duke and Carolina didn't really want to expand or some of them didn't. The Duke Carolina basketball is the best rivalry in basketball bar none. There are other great games that include NC State, UVa and in the last almost 20 years, Virginia Tech. Some people may not care about Maryland football, but missing them in basketball is a big hole. Tech playing them this year is awesome, but it should be every year. Same with UVa. Both schools can get a good amount of alums and fans to College Park.
In fact IMHO, Virginia Tech makes a big mistake not playing a DMV located team every year.
