You're right. I guess I meant to say started showing it last year. Sometimes what's in my head comes out different than what I type on my phone due to my impatience.

I was a bit surprised by this, frankly. Some interesting insights from the student-athletes, and from a team who arguably would benefit. Would be interested to hear more feedback from other teams.

Now interview all the kids in the AAC and rest of G5 and get their thoughts. UNC isn’t concerned about expanding up to 12 because they’ve got a shot at the playoffs when theirs 4-8 teams in it. Win your conference you’re in. Why limit it to the top G5? What if there’s two undefeated G5’s? It’s bs not to reward and give that shot to those kids. So I’m not surprised at that article.

Playoffs should be 8 teams. Then no one gets a bye.
As for UNC, anyone who loses to Virginia, should not be in playoffs.

I don't believe the Tarholes have much to worry about . It is kinda like Colin K worrying about getting back into the NFL. 8) 8)

Baylor should stay in B12. But Baylor would give ACC a footprint in the SW.

OK, I'm confused. How many times have you complained about teams being in the ACC who were actually located in Atlantic coast states? But now you imply that having a "footprint in the SW" would be good?

Well Texas is next to the gulf of Mexico which is essentially part of the Atlantic ocean. Clearly any school in Texas is a better geographic fit than schools like west Virginia or Louisville that aren't even in states touching a coast.

Baylor would be better than current ACC schools: Louisville, Pittsburgh, Syracuse, Boston College and Notre Dame.

One of those is a "rogue" school, and the rest are in the God-forsaken North, where no ACC school should ever be located. Baylor is at least in the south(west).

I think we'll eventually land in a power conference too. But in about 10-20+ years.

Reading a wahoo message board, makes everything in National Enquirer and CNN look 100% factual. One can easily detect hate for VT and Liberty in Hoo nation. Many are still mad that VT joined ACC.

Per PFF Clemson and FSU have approached the SEC now.
The SEC is concerned Clemson/FSU won’t bring streaming #’s as OU/UT. Mentioned ND may be the only free agent to do so.



Edit* Seeing other information that this is not true. Who knows.
