You are describing why ND deal has become more destructive to the ACC, your

post lean very heavily towards supporting ND, and creating a similar relationship that the B12 had with Texas. Ironically your tunnel vision on Notre Dame, makes you forget how close the B12 was to destroying itself. If the PAC hadn’t had Larry Scott one upping the B12 or had a competent Commissioner the PAC survives and B12 becomes the AAC level conference. Think from the ACC schools point of view and not the ND point of view, with 17 schools in the conference, having 3-4 being the only ones playing ND, is awful for the overall conference. Only Jim ND Phillips, TerryD, Domer and you would try to sell that as good for the ACC. 🤣 PS TerryD probably won’t say it’s good for the ACC, but he would say it’s good for ND, and that’s all he cares about. At least he wouldn’t mask it, and I respect that. That’s why TerryD and I don’t agree much, but I do respect his consistent and no nonsense position.

Big12 guy • 02/09/26 05:28 PM ET
No reason for the ACC to schedule around non-conference games
Tailgate Guru • 02/09/26 07:01 PM ET
