I don't buy the public vs private divide, Mia is private, VT is public, was
a great rivalry when both were often top 10 teams. Miami FSU is another example. USC versus Oregon, not problem when they were both good. I think the public versus private is a made up thing, mainly on message boards. I think people care if both teams are great and if the game has rivalry implications (work and play with their alums and fans if they are both not great), but when USC-w plays UCLA, it's not about public private, it's about being around their alumni and fans all year long.
As far as close geographical, make it close geographical teams, not sure why that's any harder in the ACC than the other two to do that, you just have to do it.
