In spite of everything, I believe the ACC wants FSU as a member.

The problem FSU and Clemson have with this argument is the 1st paragraph of the GOR. It clearly states the schools give their media rights to the ACC without any exceptions until 2036 and do so even if they are no longer conference members. Also, FSU is stating in the request for SJ that the...

This is silly. FSU was ranked #4 when Travis was injured. There was no way they were left out with him healthy.

Duh. Of course. I am not sure why I left this out. Oh, mosquitoes don't breed in the swamp water, so it's only you and the gators. And the other world night sounds.

I understand your point, but the ACC is the ESPN partner, not FSU or Miami. So all of Florida is an ACC market.

The problem isn't carriage fees in Tallahassee. If FSU is the TV draw they claim, then the viewers are anywhere ESPN programming is available. But, currently FSU's market is all of Florida. That might change, but right now they have a large TV market.

It didn't help, but I don't think it blocked them. It's early yet.

Well, to start with, they are a great university with even greater history. They are not attractive to the Big Ten because of their football success (or lack of same), but because they fit beautifully in the mold of a B10 member. And, they would cement a huge market for the conference TV...

ND stated last year that they planned to remain independent as long as they have a path to the CFP. That could change if the P4 become the P2 and teams have a full slate of in-conference games. But, I don't see that happening in the near future.

This is a good list. A couple of minor exceptions. I would lump the Grand Canyon, Bryce and Arches into one trip, but definitely add Dead Horse (Maybe the most spectacular sunrise in the US). All those are relatively close together. Maybe do the Outer Banks 1st. A big storm could make going...

This would be a better post if you said it was also sarcasm. But, you got the reactions you wanted. There is that.

I agree with you. As a fan, I see nothing among those six schools to interest me in watching a game. Heck, I haven't been watching them. OSU and WSU are clinging to hope that Stanford and Cal will return to the PACn. But both signed the ACC Grant of Rights. Unless there's an unexpected court...

3-0 over #13 Florida at McCamish. Solid effort all around.

I hope you are 100% correct with this post, but I want us to focus on VMI as if they are our equal and not have a Citadel repeat. Just win this game and move on.

None of us are happy about the outcome yesterday, but over the top negativism is simply pointless. We have fonts (who appear after losses) whose posts show absolutely no football (or basketball) knowledge. I was disappointed in the way we played yesterday. You can't have your best day everyday...

I think we all underestimated Cuse and overestimated GT. Maybe we aren't quite ready for the CFP.

I agree there was cheating before the NIL collectives opened a new way to cheat. Paying a player to play at your school is against the rules now, but isn't being enforced. Look at the uga Clemson game to see what is the future of college football with unregulated NIL. The problem now is the...

I said the same (or similar) about Duke in basketball. Having the best players is not the same as having the best team.

I wonder if the NCAA might actually win a case where NIL collectives are portrayed as pay-for-play vehicles. I do not think most people want a few schools to be able to buy talented players while others struggle to keep non-revenue sports afloat. People actually like college sports and the NIL...
