Games in the Richmond to Atlanta corridor will really help Notre Dame

The Richmond to Atlanta corridor looks really strong as does Louisville. And I find it interesting that the only hot spots in the Northeast are around Pittsburgh and Syracuse. Perhaps the ACC 4x4x4 committee did its homework and knew this?

Florida is strong across the state. South Florida trends like the Northeast.

One thing that helps the ACC is basketball which is strong in the Northeast. It would be nice to see a map like this that shows how basketball fans behave.

Nielson: ACC most watched basketball conference. Third most for football. -- HOO86 04/13/2016 10:52AM

This is what Swofford and company are touting -- ren_hoek 04/14/2016 06:50AM

This also correlates reasonably well with ACC/Big 12 attendance figures -- daveinop 04/13/2016 5:40PM

ACC has 40% more teams ** -- FlyFishingHokie 04/14/2016 3:13PM

That is an issue for the conference, not the network -- daveinop 04/16/2016 3:29PM

I don't get this. The pay off for these ratings/tickets is split 15 ways. -- chuckd4vt 04/17/2016 02:55AM

Again, we often talk past each other, mixing topics -- daveinop 04/17/2016 08:42AM

So good for ESPN and Raycom, but not so good for the ACC and VT. -- chuckd4vt 04/17/2016 2:39PM

Pretty sure you stay "started" : ) and -- daveinop 04/17/2016 5:04PM

Michigan and Ohio save the Big 10... -- Old Line Hokie 04/13/2016 11:40AM

I am sorry but this makes no sense -- BigCrumpy 04/14/2016 11:47AM

Just watch this MASSIVE contract they're about to sign. ** -- chuckd4vt 04/14/2016 8:37PM

Lol ** -- goldendomer 04/14/2016 12:53PM

17.5-28.2% of college football fans in the Northeast.. -- Old Line Hokie 04/13/2016 2:24PM

Difference between peeking in on a game and must see TV. -- chuckd4vt 04/14/2016 04:38AM

I've caught a few games both VT and non-VT in NYC and you're wrong -- HokieDevil 04/14/2016 09:39AM

The NYC metro area is only about 3 or 4 times larger than Atlanta. -- chuckd4vt 04/14/2016 1:05PM

Perhaps. There's levels of fandom. college fball just isn't huge in NYC. -- chuckd4vt 04/14/2016 12:58PM

As far as the whole city getting into something no NYC ins't into college -- HokieDevil 04/14/2016 1:28PM

College Basketball is popular in NY. And the ACC has it. -- HOO86 04/14/2016 3:00PM

Facts tell us NY schools do not have many fans who attend games/bowls. ** -- chuckd4vt 04/14/2016 2:49PM

You assume that only NY schools have fans in NYC. -- HokieDevil 04/14/2016 3:38PM

I get that. Same happens in Atlanta. I frequented the PSU bar down there. -- chuckd4vt 04/14/2016 6:08PM

Those factors that have ZERO to do with media contract -- daveinop 04/16/2016 5:25PM

Virginia Tech's 10+ years in the Big East is magic -- BigCrumpy 04/14/2016 11:48AM

And yet, we aren't worthy of our own network channel -- EDGEMAN 04/13/2016 11:02AM

This only looks at the top 10 games which has little to do -- Colonel Jessup 04/14/2016 08:07AM

This is a compelling case for a network IMO. -- HOO86 04/13/2016 11:38AM

Raycom is not all it's cracked up to be, my story -- FlyFishingHokie 04/14/2016 11:07AM

True. They pay for them, but they don't have to show them. -- HOO86 04/14/2016 12:36PM
