Except from the ACC's perspective they are not any more holy


than the other rivalries they wish to preserve as annual games. The reason the ACC would start with the 4 NC schools is because they have the most rivalries at stake regardless whether the ACC goes with 2 divisions and rotate 2 pods every 2 years or 4 divisions.

Duke - UNC, (maybe) Wake, and (maybe) NC State
UNC - Duke, NC State, UVA, and (maybe) Wake
NC State - UNC, Wake, Clemson, and (maybe) Duke
Wake - Duke, NC State, and (maybe) UNC

Once ACC decides where the 4 NC schools go, then they will start filling in their non-NC rivalries (i.e. UVA for UNC and Clemson for NC State). Once UVA and Clemson have been placed, then the ACC will place VT (UVA), GT (Clemson), and probably FSU (Clemson). Once those 3 schools have been placed, then the ACC will place Miami (FSU). Once Miami is placed, then the ACC will place the remaining schools while trying to preserve their important rivals.

BC - Syracuse
Syracuse - BC and Pitt
Louisville - no one (as of right now)

As long as the ACC preserve as many (or all) of everyone's big rivals, then all the members should be happy (for the most part).
