Message: [QUOTE="Scooch, post: 376475, member: 628"] I think you have to separate football and basketball. For hoops moving to the ACC is a hit for those of us in the tri-state area, in terms of having access to local games. Between UConn, St. John's, Seton Hall, Rutgers and the BET there was a good 3-4+ games a year right in our "backyard". Probably only downside to moving to the ACC is losing that. Football is a totally different story though. Since the BEFC formed we have always only had 3-4 regional games. In the 90s it was Pitt, Temple, BC and Rutgers. In the New Big East that became Pitt, UConn and Rutgers. In the ACC that'll be Pitt, BC and Maryland. There's just not a huge difference (unless you pine for Temple). [/QUOTE]
