combined average attendance of the 3 schools would barely break top 10

in the country. They combined for something like 90k per game. The ACC doesn't need more of that. I've warmed to the Pitt addition some (should have been WVU), but I think every other addition since VT/Miami have been flops that do nothing to enhance the conference.

He really is. Should have been more uproar at the time he was considered.
Hokie 04 08/24/23 07:26 PM ET

If the ACC adds those 3, the ACC will have added 6 private universities...

I'd like to see Northwestern come to the ACC
HOO86 08/24/23 06:12 PM ET
Dude, WHY?!
Hokie 04 08/24/23 07:31 PM ET
3 new teams & 1 game makes it the same? Also, ND th ratings pull is reduced**
Stech 08/24/23 06:25 PM ET

Cal is the biggest public university available on the board.

Stech 08/24/23 02:34 PM ET
You can solve that by adding a 9th Game.
HOO86 08/24/23 04:38 PM ET
Yep, with 17, a 7-7-2 model would be close to what we have now**
BROman Hokie 08/25/23 04:43 PM ET
