Will not be unless the 4x16 champs only playoff message board fantasy occur


If it does, ND will join the ACC ten minutes later.
We agree on this, I have not changed one bit on this.

Younger ND fans (under 30) are growing up seeing the ACC all over the ND sports including 5 football games, referees at games etc. You might not like it, but they are softening, Conference affiliation is more positive for them than when ND was treated like crap by the Big 10. They do insist on a National Schedule and admissions and fund raising wants a heavy east coast presence for obvious reasons. That's where they get the students and money.

Bottom line ND will be able to add 2 more games and still play 5 OOC, but have a way better chance of making the playoff or a top tier bowl. So back to your original statement and the fact that younger folks have not be brought up to hate all conferences, will eventually make this that 10 minute decision.

This is where we disagree that's okay, but I have not changed, I have been stating the same thing for many years. I am just expanding on the younger ND generation, but I have felt that way about them all along.It won't be why they do it, but it will be why it will be easier for them to handle it.
