The ACC and PAC had a chance to have a guaranteed spot in the playoffs.
all they had to do was to vote for the SEC expansion model. But the B1G used the ACC's and PAC's fear and hatred of the big bad SEC to blind them. The B1G played the ACC/PAC into signing on the The Alliance, meanwhile the B1G was plotting. Now thanks to that move, the ACC/PAC/Big12 have no guaranteed spot and who do you think has the best shot of getting (2) teams in? The SEC and the B1G - yea the same B1G who convinced the ACC/PAC to vote against expansion.
Yet people on this board convinced others that The Alliance was a good move for the ACC. Some posters/reads need to stop listening to people who tell you what you want to hear and hope to be true. Start thinking with your head.
