This is traditionally the week the ACC releases its football schedule for the upcoming season. But this year fans are going to have to wait a little longer to find out when and where their favorite teams will play in 2012, [URL='http://www.theacc.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/021612aaa.html'][U][COLOR=#0066cc]according to a statement put out by the league on Friday[/COLOR][/U][/URL].
 
Front and center among the “unusual circumstances beyond the control of the ACC and its member schools” is West Virginia’s decision to cancel its Sept. 8 game against Florida State. The move was made because of the Mountaineers’ shift from the Big East to the Big 12, which plays a nine-game league schedule. But because of it, the Seminoles are now scrambling to find a last-minute opponent to fill the open date.

[SIZE=4][FONT=Times New Roman]Regardless of the reason, it’s going to be a while longer before the 2012 schedule is completed.[/FONT][/SIZE]
