Stanford, Cal weighing options as ACC ponders western expansion
WBGV 08/08/23 01:05 PM ET
To do this is a BIG MISTAKE that will keep on giving over the years.**

It's really not worse than anything else if people want to keep the

I’m perplexed. What is the ACC strategy here if just the two schools?
HokieAl 08/08/23 01:14 PM ET
They are in reactive survival mode. Plain and simple.**
JKHokie-RunFor32 08/08/23 03:59 PM ET
well if the ACC had a play at getting UW OU Cal & Stanford as a pod
Vippie1 08/08/23 03:17 PM ET
UW & OU wanted to following USC/UCLA.

Looks like the ACC just reacting as usual. Other conferences expanding

Leland Stanford Jr. and Berkeley are a Rivalry called The Big Game

The strategy is get more money from ESPN and the ACC Network.

The ACCN is a given with California Subscribers

I’m wondering where ND is in all this. They play Stanford every year
Marooned 08/08/23 01:23 PM ET
it wouldn't become a "conference game"
Pylons 08/08/23 01:49 PM ET
You guys are missing the point
Marooned 08/08/23 02:20 PM ET
The contract is for 5 games, not 6
TerryD 08/08/23 04:15 PM ET
I get that point.
Pylons 08/08/23 02:28 PM ET
I don't think Stanford automatically falls under that umbrella
Truthahn 08/08/23 05:37 PM ET
I don't think ND will agree to six games
TerryD 08/09/23 05:34 AM ET
Spot on
Marooned 08/08/23 07:07 PM ET
Obviously it's not determined or automatic.
Pylons 08/08/23 05:45 PM ET
forget about ND; they aren't coming to the rescue under any circumstances**
ren_hoek 08/08/23 01:27 PM ET
Correct**

Being from a school that was left behind, and watching the PAC implode
Big12 guy 08/08/23 03:26 PM ET
I agree. And if members could be added, it may prevent the top teams from
132863Hokie 08/08/23 03:35 PM ET
Ya, I don't know about the money, but rest assured, ESPN is in on the call.
Big12 guy 08/08/23 03:40 PM ET
Interesting thought**
VT ChemE 1986 08/08/23 03:04 PM ET
the strategy is desperation**
