Maybe if the ACC loses FSU and Clemson.

If we are going with a weird conference setup, why not build off the weirdness we already have.  I am the ACC... I am seeing the current rift in the B1G and approaching Michigan and USC with 5-game deals like ND. Plus, they can play each other.  That is 7 games.  Those schools might even agree to 6 games with 2 against each other.

20 team basketball conference, with 17 football schools playing 9 games and 3 playing 5 games.  Is that any worse than 16 teams playing 9 games, 1 playing 8, and ND playing 5?  Can Michigan and USC put together an independent media deal approaching ND?  If so, those two schools can start playing a ND-like schedule where they can go 10-2 and make the playoff, pocketing the playoff $$S all for themselves.   Meanwhile, the ACC gets a few games of significant interest during the year.

At the very least, the offer would embolden Michigan and USC to fight against the B1G and private equity, which will be the final nail in the CFB coffin.
