Hopefully they can work on a deal that gets all 15 votes.
What FSU wants is a chance at more money. So if they can put something together that will allow for that, then FSU may say yes. I saw a POD Cast today on Ovies and Gigglio with the Wake Forest AD. The Wake AD said that his field hockey team played road games and Stanford and Cal this past season, and that if Stanford and Cal joined in football that ACC members would only have to play a road game out there once in 4 years. So that the travel burden would not be that great on the ACC members.
I don't think travel is FSU's issue. FSU wants a concession on the performance POT of money.

Typical of the ACC to react instead of leading the way.
