I think people will ultimately realize that expansion that makes zero sense geographically will fail. ACC is effectively a corporate roll up of big east football. At least to me (i may be in the minority) i enjoy these north east games in the fall against our peers. It feels forced to play NC State, Clemson and Georgia Tech as division rivals in the purest sense. Our games always feel more authentically fall football when it's BC, Rutgers, Uconn, Pitt, West Virginia, etc. These are our northeast peers.

I think the group think notion that local rivalries is dead will be proven wrong in the long run. As someone stated on another thread, we had a nice showing in Uconn yesterday. Our team is at the bottom right now and they showed up. Our alumni base enjoys these tri state/Massachusetts games b/c we can go watch and we associate with.

Again my two cents. I may be 100% wrong but as far as i'm concerned if every season included the likes of Rutgers, Uconn, Umass, Army, Colgate, Penn St, Maryland we will be better served in the long run.
