Name 2 bigger teams than FSU &/or Clemson

Going to 9 games in the ACC makes it so we are likely playing at least 1 of FSU or Clemson every year. This is bigger than adding a second P5 team even if it is a TN, WVU, or BIG team each year to the schedule. Best improvement we can do for the schedule from a fan perspective as far as I am concerned. 9+1 is my choice.

VT and Pitt are the key votes on ACC future schedules. -- HOO86 08/16/2016 4:47PM

It still doesn't solve the issue of playing FSU/Clemson once a decade... -- BROman Hokie 08/17/2016 2:20PM

Winning the coastal would solve that. ** -- Genegantslet 08/17/2016 2:54PM

I wouldn't mind going to their campus and having them to our place. -- Maroon Baboon 08/18/2016 7:43PM

So does swapping places with Syracuse ** -- VTHokie2000 08/17/2016 3:51PM

I like the 9-game ACC schedule BUT... -- MBHokie90 08/17/2016 12:57PM

Who says a school can't play more than 1 power conference each year? -- VTHokie2000 08/17/2016 1:08PM

I would prefer to play an ACC team than ECU every year. -- Lakeridgehokie 08/17/2016 08:45AM

Agree. -- Atlee Hokie 08/17/2016 08:53AM

Wouldn't a 9 game schedule be better for the network? -- Maroon Doom 08/17/2016 06:49AM

Should be even. 14 teams playing each other is 7 games. 14 playing OOC is -- daveinop 08/17/2016 08:36AM

Smarty pants.... ;>) ** -- Femoyer Hokie 08/17/2016 12:38PM

Good point, hadn't thought about it that way ** -- GusDaMan 08/17/2016 09:58AM

Agree. ESPN must prefer the 9 game conference option. ** -- Femoyer Hokie 08/17/2016 08:19AM

9 games WILL NOT result in an FSU or Clemson game each year. -- chuckd4vt 08/17/2016 01:53AM

If the ACC ends up being the only conference to rotate divisions -- VTHokie2000 08/17/2016 12:39PM

CU, FSU, GT and UL just need to sack up -- Hokies4Life 08/16/2016 9:54PM

There's plenty of options to make 8 game conf. schedules better. -- chuckd4vt 08/17/2016 01:50AM

ND should count as a non conf game, because it is ** -- East Cobb Hokie 08/16/2016 6:18PM

Don't understand Duke wanting 8 conference games... -- DRR72 08/16/2016 5:42PM

Maybe Duke values qualifying for a bowl game more than playing -- VTHokie2000 08/16/2016 5:59PM

EXACTLY. They know who they are. Wanna cupcake their way to a bowl. -- chuckd4vt 08/16/2016 8:56PM

They should do a compromise. -- ahokie4u 08/16/2016 5:28PM

And get rid of the "rival cross-over" game! -- EDGEMAN 08/18/2016 10:19AM

An sec vs acc challenge would help. -- ahokie4u 08/16/2016 5:46PM

VT would still play WVU, Michigan, and Notre Dame -- VTHokie2000 08/16/2016 5:34PM

Playin other ACC schools as OOC games is stupid. What -- Lead Dog 08/16/2016 5:22PM

FAR less stupid than VT playing FSU and Clemson once a generation. ** -- chuckd4vt 08/16/2016 8:57PM

Until the Playoff Committee takes a public position on conference -- VTHokie2000 08/16/2016 5:03PM

I'll bet we vote with the football schools. But I hope I am wrong. ** -- Mr. Touchdown 08/16/2016 4:52PM

If VT does, then perhaps have the ACC schedule 9 for 10 members. -- HOO86 08/16/2016 4:56PM
