Teel: Which ACC football rivalries should be preserved in 7 year rotation?
HOO86 • 10/14/23 03:49 PM ET
After this weekend,UNC might not want to preserve UVA rivalry LOL
I85Hokie • 10/23/23 08:40 AM ET
I wonder if Teel reads this board?**
Millpoint • 10/18/23 02:30 PM ET
Like it matters
Vippie1 • 10/16/23 04:58 PM ET
Kind of agree.
mancunian • 10/17/23 12:46 PM ET
I can't disagree. As long as UVA remains a constant on the schedule, I'll

Like Teel & I have said, add Navy & go to 9 games. Navy helps us in Balt/Wa
Stech • 10/16/23 09:46 AM ET
NY Giants would gladly give up Dallas With a bit of shuffling of NFC/AFC
anotherdamnyankeehokie • 10/17/23 10:59 AM ET
NY Giants might, but not Washington or Philadelphia
HOO86 • 10/19/23 05:51 PM ET
NFC East is/was created for TV
mrcaniac • 10/23/23 01:55 PM ET
Hokie Mark blog post on ND/ACC/Stanford
TerryD • 10/17/23 09:13 AM ET
ND typically wants Stanford and BC in their rotation. Exclude both from
anotherdamnyankeehokie • 10/17/23 11:24 AM ET
ND cares nothing for BC, little for Stanford
TerryD • 10/18/23 07:12 AM ET
I can't believe this wasn't addressed when these 3 were voted in...
jims • 10/20/23 06:30 PM ET
You know you are going to get your Navy to ACC wish....finally
Vippie1 • 10/16/23 05:02 PM ET
Haha, the day Virginia Tech leaves, they will probably join 🤣, Military
Stech • 10/16/23 08:09 PM ET
Tulane is a tougher ticket in New Orleans now than the Saints.
HOO86 • 10/16/23 04:31 PM ET
it's also homecoming and gorgeous weather
neworleanshoo • 10/17/23 06:55 PM ET
Would Navy get a full pro rata share from ESPN with only Football ?
Sunsetunderground • 10/16/23 12:38 PM ET
They don’t have to be do they? Precedent is set. Navy will do very well in
Stech • 10/16/23 12:57 PM ET
Difference is all sports vs mostly football. Would ESPN pay that is
Sunsetunderground • 10/16/23 01:49 PM ET
They have highth limits. No way they would join for basketball.
Sunsetunderground • 10/16/23 01:46 PM ET
80 inches 6’8” is the maximum, but they issue waivers 4 certain candidates.**
Stech • 10/16/23 11:48 PM ET
David Robinson would like to have a word with you! 7 foot Navy legend!**
VintonHokies • 10/16/23 03:26 PM ET
Word was he grew 7 inches after his Freshman Year
Sunsetunderground • 10/16/23 05:30 PM ET
They have 7 players this year over 6’6. Must be a waiver for BB**
VintonHokies • 10/16/23 06:42 PM ET
you think that is why American is pushing for Army???
Mercury • 10/16/23 11:06 AM ET
That definitely crossed my mind, the Academic Conference of Champions would
Stech • 10/16/23 12:30 PM ET
Would the ACC give Army (and Navy) the same deal that the AAC has proposed
VTHokie2000 • 10/16/23 12:55 PM ET
Copy.
Maroon Baboon • 10/15/23 10:39 PM ET
Thanks Maroon Baboon!**
Stech • 10/16/23 09:06 AM ET
Should make Louisville SMU's rival...
Old Line Hokie • 10/15/23 08:11 PM ET
I get the feeling the Tech-WFU matchup was a way to save travel expenses
mrcaniac • 10/16/23 12:43 AM ET
no was not too published but Wake was not a VT pick
Mercury • 10/16/23 11:11 AM ET
VT - the ugly ACC stepchild!! Conference must have thrown up when VT won
Lakeridgehokie • 10/16/23 12:23 PM ET
Any way HOO86 you can copy and paste this article? I am having a difficult
Stech • 10/15/23 05:45 PM ET
Been away a couple of days. I see Maroon Baboon took care of it. ** ◄
HOO86 • 10/16/23 04:27 PM ET
I think ACC will poll the members and they will solicit feedback
Mercury • 10/15/23 03:36 PM ET
SMU isn’t playing Cal and Stanford each twice a year
RVAHokie05 • 10/15/23 07:37 AM ET
Ok. Makes more sense.**
HOO86 • 10/15/23 09:36 AM ET
Here's the only ones that MUST be preserved IMO.
Maroon Baboon • 10/14/23 09:02 PM ET
No way should UNC get to keep 3 rivalries
HokieAl • 10/16/23 08:24 PM ET
It's about the other schools they play. Many schools need none.**
Maroon Baboon • 10/17/23 01:03 PM ET
i agree that it is unnecessary for everyone to have a "must game"
MrBayAreaHokie • 10/15/23 04:25 PM ET
GT's must game would probably be Clemson given that they have played each
VTHokie2000 • 10/16/23 09:07 AM ET
I honestly don’t care about any VT rivalries outside of UVa
MrBayAreaHokie • 10/14/23 06:23 PM ET
They need to go to 9 conference games to make the scheduling work better.**
tarheelblue • 10/14/23 05:07 PM ET
Go to 9 and count Notre Dame as a conference game
cburgroop • 10/15/23 08:38 AM ET
Do that, and bring in Navy as number 18.
Stech • 10/15/23 06:35 PM ET
The problem with a 9 game conference schedule is the year teams play 5 away
VTHokie2000 • 10/14/23 08:22 PM ET
ESPN will need to pony up more $$$
mrcaniac • 10/14/23 09:20 PM ET
they did with adding 3 members and
Mercury • 10/15/23 03:37 PM ET
Yes, they will either need to buy some of those games out or move them to
VTHokie2000 • 10/14/23 11:23 PM ET
If they aren't playing 9 conference games, they are just not serious**
