Pitt and Syracuse Opponents

[Pitt_Fan_ACC]

I was hoping Pitt and Syracuse would be the protected rivals in the ACC that play twice a year. What are your feelings on the way they set things up?

It's fine. I would have preferred to have both Pitt and BC as protected rivals, though.

Pros playing BC twice a year:

extra home game each season
will help keep the Boston connection open (DNic, MCW, Noel...)
walk ons get a chance to play in conference play

Cons playing BC twice a year:

playing BC twice a year is going to kill our RPI

that will lead to playing better OOC games to make up for BC skankiness, which is another pro

So overall, this is a good thing.

Busted a gut on that one!!:rolling:

I think this is the ACC throwing BC a lifeboat.

Does BC still have a bball program in Division 1?
