The obvious reasons have been stated repeatedly. Winnable games, fun road trip, easy to travel for both fan bases. The other reason is we now play Ga Tech every year and would be great to see a lessor talentd, albiet more disciplined, version of that offense early in the season.
 
I would love to see Army on the schedule every year as a home - home setup. Would make a ton of sense to me.
 
The years they came to the Dome we could put them in the slot where we'd normally put an FCS team. I think that would draw a better crowd and we could set something up with Fort Drum to have soldiers at the game.

we won't be playing Georgia tech every year since they aren't in our division they are our cross over game this year and in 2020 they come to the carrier dome

Nice. I can't be the only one that doesn't yet know who's in our division aside from Clemson, and FSU, can I?
 
acc has to be going 9 game schedule in next few years... still never got why they put on future crossover opponents many years in advance

crickets...

I've been studying the ACC divisions since September 8, 2012. Ask me anything.

I love the idea. NY teams, access to recruiting base we want to dominate, much better replacement for an FCS team, history, etc. And while a home and home with Army is fine, we could also easily negotiate a 2 for 1 or 3 for 2 if we wanted an extra game or two actually our home stadium.

I would do whatever was necessary to schedule Navy the years we don't play Army.
