[QUOTE="billga99, post: 876194, member: 1618"] One way to potentially make this work is let ND keep their NBC contract for football and reduce their conference allocation (we did that in 2020). That means they still get National Exposure they want but not additional monies. If ND becomes part of the picture, I would say we go to a 9 game ACC schedule. 3 crossovers and 6 others per year. I would also say this is the time to tell ND they are either in or out. We still hold onto the hope they will join the ACC but the reality is football is the big money maker and they don't help us much in that area currently with their half in and half our approach. That gives ND guaranteed games but doesn't give us leverage with ESPN to increase funding. Even if ND home games were kept with NBC, having ND really in the fold would still give the ACC some leverage with ESPN. My last point is I think this proposed scheduling flexibility is setting up for the eventual 12 team playoff. I think they are trying to give the conferences additional flexibility for scheduling to help with that. [/QUOTE]
