[QUOTE="Animal02, post: 108854, member: 347"] That post is a month old.....much has changed. This from Wiki.... The [URL='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantic_Coast_Conference']Atlantic Coast Conference[/URL] is locked into a 12 year deal with the Orange Bowl, so if the ACC champion qualifies for the playoffs in a year when the Orange is not a semifinal host, the next-highest ranked ACC team will play in the Orange. If the ACC champ makes an Orange Bowl semifinal, then the league’s No. 2 team heads to an access bowl. For the secondary tie-ins: The [URL='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southeastern_Conference']Southeastern Conference[/URL] and the [URL='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Ten_Conference']Big Ten Conference[/URL] are guaranteed three appearances each, and the [URL='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_of_Notre_Dame']University of Notre Dame[/URL] can play in a maximum of two games, but is not guaranteed any appearances. The ACC team's opponent in a given year will be the highest-ranked available team from the SEC, B1G (this always excludes the SEC and Big Ten champions. If an SEC or Big Ten team—or teams—qualify for the College Football Playoff, the next available team would also be excluded from participating in the Orange Bowl due to contractual obligations with the Sugar and Rose Bowls, respectively), and Notre Dame, subject to these constraints. Also, should this highest-ranked team create a rematch with the ACC team, the Orange Bowl has the option of passing over that team for the next-highest ranked team among the B1G, SEC, and Notre Dame, again subject to the above contractual constraints. The College Football Playoff committee's rankings will be used to select the ACC's opponent. The other four will be College Football Playoff berths. Also [URL='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ESPN']ESPN[/URL] holds the television rights for the next 12 years as well. I also found this on SBNation..... The league [I](ACC)[/I] has a 12-year agreement with the Orange that guarantees three matchups against the SEC, three against the Big Ten and no more than two against Notre Dame. When the Big Ten has a team in the Orange Bowl, the ACC will send a team to the Capital One Bowl. I do not see how the B10 is excluded from the OB......If OSU were to lose. Wisc is the B10 Champ and OSU would drop below Mich State. That would make Mich State the highest ranked of the SEC/ B10/ND available. Since Mich State played in the Rose Bowl last year.....it would not be playing in the same region either. [/QUOTE]
