Message: [QUOTE="HtownOrange, post: 355962, member: 622"] Townie did a great job explaining the differences so I add only that ND did attempt to schedule other teams but was turned down by both UConn and Rutgers. Both were under pressure to host ND but neither really negotiated because ND wanted the games in South Bend and pro stadiums (Gillette and Meadowlands). Though it is possibly true that Cincy, Louisville and WVU were not high on ND's wish list, ND did play Pitt, Syracuse and USF, so they tried to play five of the eight. Now, ND will play ALL ACC teams in rotation, at least once in three years. There, done defending ND. Excuse me while I go shower, the feeling you get while defending ND is too gross to discuss.
