As long as VT / UVa kept playing, which I'm sure both schools would accommodate. I do wonder how you schedule football in a 20 school conference. 10 conference games with a 2-8-8 schedule? UVa makes game 11, and presumably a G5 game. It would stink to loose the ability to schedule an old ACC foe but I bet the $$ coming in would offset those feelings in the AD's office. Potential permanent rivals in that scenario: Bama - Ole Miss, Auburn Arkansas - Mizzou, OU Auburn - Georgia, Bama Clemson - USC, NC State UF - Miami, Georgia Georgia - UF, Auburn Kentucky - UTenn, USC LSU - aTm, Miss State Miami - VT, UF Ole Miss - MSU, Bama MSU - LSU, Ole Miss Missouri - Vandy, Arkansas NC State - VT, USC Oklahoma - Arkansas, Texas USC - Clemson, Kentucky Tenn - Vandy, Kentucky Texas - aTm, OU aTm - Texas, LSU Vandy - Tenn, Missouri VT - NC State, Miami
