Who would you choose to kick out of the

ACC if you had to choose 4 schools, but could only pick from the following list: Pitt, BC, Syracuse and Virginia Tech?
My first choice would be VT, then I'd go with Pitt, followed next by Syracuse. The last one is a toughie, but ultimately I think I would pick BC.

No games in Columbus and their fans are not allowed to attend games in Death Valley.
This gives us a guaranteed win over an overrated top ten team every year to boost our playoff resume’ while assuring the rest of CFB that OSU will no longer waste a playoff spot.

I have no interest in visiting that state every other year. I've driven though the state and it's probably the most depressing area of the country I've ever seen (and I've visited almost all 50 states).

huge get if we could play them every year. I love College Gameday games and Clemson vs ND would be very high on ESPNS's list of the game of the week. We play so many awful teams it's hard to get excited knowing you're going to win by 30. Now games against big time opponents where we might could lose is super exciting, think Auburn, FSU when they were good,VT when they were good. Who in the heck gets excited for Wake Forest or Pitt or BC?

Let's see...
Jun 23, 2020, 1:21 PM
|

I'd boot Boston College, Syracuse, Pitt, and Wake Forest (too many North Carolina schools and this tiny private school will never be able to compete or be interesting - they don't deserve Power 5 status).
As for Virginia Tech... even if I agreed with you about their fan base, if that were the criteria, then we'd have very few teams left (I'm looking at you NC State).

Jun 23, 2020, 1:32 PM

Investing more money into the ACC and New Leadership IMO is what the league needs to become more competitive. Just as important it is necessary for strong leadership at each school. I believe we have some good coaches in place. The ACC just needs change. It’s time to find a new business model. These actions need to be taken soon.
Swofford has had plenty of time to run the ACC into the ground. It’s time for him and his cronies to go. It’s time to find new revenue sources and those resources need to be invested wisely.
Before we start kicking teams out of the league IMO we should try the above.
The SEC has a head start over the ACC. If the league is to become a much bigger force in college athletics the league needs to take action

Virginia Tech goes. Can’t believe some want them gone. I enjoy seeing a tight geographical conference so I would boot BC and Syracuse. Someone mentioned Wake. No!!!

If geography alone is your criteria, then are you ready to admit ECU and Charlotte into the ACC?

Of course not on ECU and Charlotte. I think the league has too many teams anyway. When you want to throw Wake out try not to look at it through football eyes only. They have success in other sports.

Personally, I would rather keep all of them in the ACC and have Clemson join the SEC. I think the SEC is just a better fit for Clemson. We would always be competitive in football, basketball, baseball, and soccer. We would have to improve on all of the women's sports. The SEC is better geographically and the rivalries are already better than the ACC.
