Message: [QUOTE="Orangefizz, post: 4724745, member: 5608"] If Cal and Stanford join the conference for football, I could see the schedule work out where they each play 7 ACC teams, than play each other and Notre Dame for a 9 game “conference” schedule. The original 14 ACC teams would be in a 3+ 5/5 scheduling model plus Stanford or Cal. 4 ACC teams would also play Notre Dame annually. The hope is that ESPN will pay more for broadcasting on the West Coast every week and additional Notre Dame/ACC inventory by going to 9 conference games. If Cal and Stanford come in at a 60% equity share that would mean extra money for everyone else. Someone should pitch to Saudi Arabia sovereign wealth fund about having regular season games in Riyadh for additional cash flow. [/QUOTE]
