It's only 3 games. You still have 2 other dedicated. Give them FSU & ?


I think this is all solvable. ND playing the following 5 dedicated teams isn't really that bad for them...

1) SYR: This is the NY market.
2) BC: This is a rivalry of catholic schools they have had in the past.
3) PITT: Probably not ideal for ND, but it's not like it's Wake Forest.
4) FSU: This gives them a trip to Florida each year.
5) UVA, VT or GT.

I think the bigger objection would be any team committing to 10 conference games. So, maybe each team only has 1 dedicated game outside their "POD". Regardless, the concept is to create more local "mini dedicated rivals"... that way VT isn't stuck filling their schedule every year playing GT, Duke, UNC, BC, and Pitt. That's just bad business.
