Interestingly, the other option which is slight handed as the mandated game against Power 5 competition is passed...believe that there will be more ACC-SEC games in the near future...and ESPN is pushing, as I have been told...for this to happen.  What is somewhat interesting is that Notre Dame will be playing all ACC teams every 3 years, while there will be as much as an 8 year period will pass for teams to play other ACC non divisional games...those who voted for the 8 game schedule included FSU, Clemson, GT, and the newcomer Louisville...all have an SEC game every year plus Notre Dame once every 3 years...that is a schedule that should result in a strong SOS.

Interestingly, what teams will the remainder of the ACC play from the Power 5 since 3 conferences are playing 9 conference games (the push for Notre Dame to join all in continues and someday may happen) but for now, finding a P-5 game is getting more difficult for the teams not presently facing the SEC each year...and the SEC has a similar problem/concern.  The P-5 conference most readily having teams available to play against the ACC will be the SEC...and told ESPN smiling about this.

Hang in as the story continues to be written...for now, FSU and Clemson are very happy...something will take place soon to make those wanting to go to nine games pleased as well--should be interesting.
