If no ND and UT, then WVU and UCONN. Keep it simple, keep it east.

One football. One basketball. Lots of rivalries there to rekindle and "link" the league, creating more interest in the ACC TV schedule and great content for the new network.

I am wondering if UT was happy with the turn of events though yesterday. I wonder if the expansion announcement threw off any potential plans they were making to join the ACC or B1G.

Now that the ACC has a network, next up should be football -- hokie4ever 07/20/2016 12:01PM

16 teams with 4 divsions. 2 divsions play each other & winner goes to Champ -- Stech 07/20/2016 1:44PM

Trade UVa for cross over rival. They get many students from Mass & Lewis- -- Stech 07/20/2016 8:45PM

WVU and UCONN are only ones that offer anything. ** -- chuckd4vt 07/20/2016 4:45PM

That sounds like a nightmare. ** -- RapmasterAC 07/20/2016 3:23PM

You play every team home away every 6 years min. More Clemson, more FSU, -- Stech 07/20/2016 8:49PM

If the ACC were to go with 4 divisions, then it could/would -- VTHokie2000 07/20/2016 2:13PM

UVA & VT would be in the same division, UNC & Duke the same, Clemson & FSU -- Stech 07/20/2016 9:28PM

Since there 4 divisions and those divisions rotate every 2 years -- VTHokie2000 07/20/2016 11:09PM

I would like to see what others think first. ** -- Stech 07/20/2016 1:52PM

ND and WVU would be the first to get to 16. Not happening -- hokie4ever 07/20/2016 4:43PM

Re: I would like to see what others think first. -- SoCloseHokie 07/20/2016 2:09PM

Change up divisions every two seasons after home and homes. -- chuckd4vt 07/20/2016 1:10PM

It isn't confusing why FSU doesn't play at Lane too often -- VTHokie2000 07/20/2016 2:05PM

If we're playing the same 6 teams each yr, we're not playing FSU often. -- chuckd4vt 07/20/2016 2:35PM

I believe there is a scenario out there where UVA and/or Miami -- VTHokie2000 07/20/2016 2:52PM

Fully understand the rotation, don't understand why ACC keeps it. ** -- chuckd4vt 07/20/2016 4:45PM

The most likely reason is because that is the fair thing to do -- VTHokie2000 07/20/2016 5:18PM

Isn't fair at all. Miami plays FSU every year. Duke plays Wake. -- chuckd4vt 07/20/2016 6:28PM

Sure it is fair because most ACC teams are paired up with -- VTHokie2000 07/20/2016 10:24PM

Nine Conference games, No dedicated rival unless... -- Mr. Touchdown 07/20/2016 12:39PM

Crossover=gone. It's a stupid concept. Especially with only 8 conference -- reestuart 07/20/2016 12:35PM

Is the crossover game still stupid if VT and UVA ended up -- VTHokie2000 07/20/2016 2:06PM

That sort of divisional alignment would be stupid to start with, IMO. -- reestuart 07/20/2016 3:32PM

Why would it be stupid to have VT and UVA in opposite divisions? -- VTHokie2000 07/20/2016 4:12PM

The fact BC and FSU are in the same division should tell you -- reestuart 07/20/2016 4:42PM

Even though I prefer geographic based divisions -- VTHokie2000 07/20/2016 5:04PM

Good points, and I want to make sure you don't think I'm calling -- reestuart 07/20/2016 5:41PM

I didn't think you doing that. Believe me I understand why -- VTHokie2000 07/20/2016 10:51PM

If no ND and UT, then WVU and UCONN. Keep it simple, keep it east.
