The loss of rivalries has to be devastating.


I know they are playing Ohio State, Michigan, etc., but the fans of those schools don't have any passion for games against Maryland, and they are basically foreign teams to Maryland fans. There is history with Penn State, but the PSU fans care about Pitt a whole lot more.

West Virginia is also going through this in the Big XII too. Rivalries are extremely important for fan interest. That's why I wouldn't mind seeing WVU in the ACC.
