Well if the ACC does not survive the FSU exploits and a few other teams choose to leave also like Clemson, NCstate, Georgia Tech joining either the Big 12 or SEC...what would the ACC probably look at. This blog gives a hint and frankly I like it. Two facts that come out of this are...
1. Louisville is only school outside the Top 75--actually gives better academic standing since there are four out of the Top 75 now
2. According to most analysis, if this happens, the ACC will own NYC...with over 40% share of population having a team in the ACC
3. Of course ND is the key here
Of course we have to GET OVER Rutgirls and Uconn being in the conference, but that is not such a bad thing...and ND comes on board (many articles that if and when ND joins a conference it will be the ACC--now if we get ND before FSU and others leave...we probably add ND and one other and remain quite stable for a very long time.
A quick look at divisions:
North: Boston College, Connecticut, Maryland, Notre Dame, Pittsburgh, Rutgers, Syracuse
South: Duke, Louisville, MIami (FL), North Carolina, Virginia, Virginia Tech, Wake Forest

How do you feel about this?
