As much as I would like to play Miami annually I highly doubt it would happen.
2 of Miami's 3 opponents would be stone cold lead pipe locks Florida State and Virginia Tech. The 3rd one would likely come from Pittsburgh, Boston College, Louisville or Syracuse.

These teams are easy to find the 3  locks for 3+3+5 model

North Carolina-Virginia, NC State, Duke
Duke- North Carolina, Wake Forest, Georgia Tech
Florida State-Clemson, Georgia Tech, Miami
NC State- North Carolina, Clemson, Wake Forest
Clemson-Florida State, Georgia Tech, NC State
Georgia Tech-Duke, Florida State, Clemson

These teams are easy to find atleast 2 locks
Miami-Florida State, Virginia Tech
Virginia-North Carolina, Virginia Tech
Wake Forest-Duke, NC State
Boston College-Syracuse, Pittsburgh
Virginia Tech-Miami, Virginia
Syracuse-Boston College, Pittsburgh
Pittsburgh-Boston College, Syracuse

This team is the complete wild card
Louisville

Thus the ACC would need to find UL 3 annual opponents from Miami, UVA, Wake, BC, VPI, SU, Pitt and then give the others 1 more.

I would give Louisville- Pittsburgh, Virginia, Syracuse
then have Virginia Tech play Wake Forest annually because those schools are pretty close geographically and it would keep the whole VA-NC thing going and have Boston College play Miami annually.

I would love for Syracuse to replace BC and play Miami annually but Syracuse having a little history with Louisville would give the ACC an excuse to make us annual rivals.
