Why?

First I’m not ND fan. I’m not really bothered by the expansion one way another. I am a true fan of the past . With of course VT in ACC. Or safe and sound. All that being said. Why angst towards ND? They pushed for something to make their independent status(quasi as it is) stay in current way . Word is VT was one of three schools really desiring this. Maybe just Sands. Heck who knows . 11 others said yes. Due to GOR the Mag 7 in reality was the 7 dwarfs. They had not much power . Speaking for VT only . There is no way the Hokies can leave . The enormity of the money would cripple. When the time potentially comes for some to leave or the 7. Also having a viable acc left will not hurt. That’s what ND seeks(stay Indy. Home for other sports). A VT can see that and desire one two things . 1. Help protect those 2. Have a viable home if VT has not place to go(yes I know this is not the real desire) I personally think in time the Acc will be this West —. Stan, Cal, Rice, Smu , Tulane East—— Duke, Wake, GT, USF, Navy Northeast —- BC, Pitt, UConn, Army , Cuse Notre Dame will be quasi but affiliated with. VT be in prob BIG after AAU status . Which seemingly VT needs more time. Possible SEC Louisville in Big 12 where they fit. One last thing. Clemson very quiet through process. Interesting imo. I think they dissented a no vote only due to how money is divvied up. They desire easy path to playoff in reality. They should know . They’ve used it well.

No 6th ND game

Am I mistaken, or is ND playing a FCS level team today?

Sad part is we would go from averaging 2.5 home games to 3, others on NBC.

I just noticed yesterday ND playing Tennessee State.
HOO86 09/03/23 09:45 AM ET
Exactly, they would be adding an average of a 1/2,home game a year, they

Then cut the pool of bowl ties they can access on a rotating basis

Another lesson in how to take and not give, you have the right Commissioner
Stech 09/01/23 09:50 PM ET
Once again the ACC bends over & says to ND "Please sir, I'll have another."

ND owns the ACC Commissioner without being in the Conference, it’s amazing!**

ND could still schedule a Stanford game every year if they want.
tarheelblue 09/01/23 06:42 PM ET
Doesn't ND try to schedule a late November game in California every year?
mrcaniac 09/01/23 06:36 PM ET
No Stanford on ND's future schedules after next season**

It won’t be a request. **
