What's this?

If the next version of the CFP is 5 automatic bids for the P5 conferences

and only 1 automatic bid for the G5 conferences, then you can bet the issue will end up in court particularly if the G5s don't agree to the deal.

Oh no, they are ASK to leave -- Mercury 01/27/2022 10:25PM

I thought that was the case which could make discussions interesting -- VTHokie2000 01/27/2022 10:33PM

I think the Alliance crossed that bridge some time ago. ND isn't -- daveinop 01/28/2022 1:37PM

I agree that the ACC just needs to keep on floundering because -- VTHokie2000 01/28/2022 1:43PM

Especially when ND was making side deals as part of the initial working grp -- Mercury 01/28/2022 10:54AM

No problem at all cuz that is what it is ** -- TerryD 01/28/2022 12:14PM

If the alliance works out no problems -- Mercury 01/27/2022 12:51PM

I think that the "Alliance" will carve out ND games -- TerryD 01/28/2022 12:16PM

That would be suicide for the ACC ** -- VT ChemE 1986 01/28/2022 3:16PM

How do fans know that ACC isn't already committing suicide by remaining -- VTHokie2000 01/28/2022 3:21PM

No way ACC agrees to this -- Sunsetunderground 01/28/2022 2:55PM

Notre Dame might have the support of the ACC schools with SEC rivalries -- VTHokie2000 01/28/2022 3:01PM

When they formed, I would have agreed. But at this point, I'm doubting it -- daveinop 01/28/2022 1:49PM

There might be a need when factoring in the ACC's requirement to play -- VTHokie2000 01/28/2022 2:16PM

You may be right but if ACC wants more $, it has to give up something -- daveinop 01/29/2022 12:11PM

The Big Ten may not really care about the potential additional money -- VTHokie2000 01/29/2022 12:24PM

ND might as well formally sign a scheduling agreement with the Alliance -- daveinop 01/29/2022 2:18PM

Notre Dame may not want to give up its scheduling freedom -- VTHokie2000 01/29/2022 7:23PM

It would be give and take, and no impact on NBC -- daveinop 01/30/2022 1:39PM

Right now Notre Dame can schedule 7 or 8 "home games" every season -- VTHokie2000 01/31/2022 12:28AM

Exactly -- Sunsetunderground 01/27/2022 1:17PM

The hardest part is having to wait for all of this to play out -- HokieAl 01/27/2022 12:26PM

This is big news, they were the ones that stopped it before. -- Stech 01/26/2022 9:41PM

Do you think having swofford gone help??? -- Mercury 01/28/2022 11:01AM

Every ACC team gets 2 annual rivals.... -- Old Line Hokie 01/26/2022 10:19PM

No-these "protected games" are largely unnecessary -- Vippie1 01/28/2022 12:39PM

But every schools has at least 1 or 2 rivalries that are important -- VTHokie2000 01/28/2022 3:37PM

Dont jump to schedules first it will be one more time of expansion... -- Mercury 01/28/2022 11:05AM

Can the ACC cleanly divide up into 4 pods with 14 teams and still -- VTHokie2000 01/28/2022 11:15AM

Pods and divisions can and should be idea of the past. -- Maroon Baboon 01/28/2022 3:40PM

I would agree with that assessment. If the bylaws are changed -- VTHokie2000 01/28/2022 3:49PM

That's why they are changing the rules before they decide on a CFP format -- daveinop 01/30/2022 08:34AM

That may happen, but don't be shocked if SCOTUS eventually rules -- VTHokie2000 01/30/2022 12:11PM

That's a pretty big leap. all of this would follow restructuring the -- daveinop 01/30/2022 2:20PM

It's not that big of an assumption when you look at the past rulings by -- VTHokie2000 01/31/2022 12:40AM

I think your strawman is a leap, not what SCOTUS would do to it. -- daveinop 01/31/2022 08:35AM

If the next version of the CFP is 5 automatic bids for the P5 conferences -- VTHokie2000 02/01/2022 12:30PM

That's what you said before -- daveinop 02/01/2022 4:37PM

Who says all 10 FBS conferences and Notre Dame will agree -- VTHokie2000 02/01/2022 4:36PM

I don't think they will; I think all bets are off; and I think -- daveinop 02/01/2022 4:59PM

But that is essentially what the P5 are doing in their proposal; -- VTHokie2000 02/01/2022 5:00PM

What P5 proposal? ** -- daveinop 02/01/2022 5:03PM

Re: What P5 proposal? -- daveinop 02/01/2022 5:12PM

As I noted below there isn't 100% support among the P5s for the -- VTHokie2000 02/01/2022 5:38PM

Here's an article that talks about the potential 12-team proposal -- VTHokie2000 02/01/2022 5:09PM

I revised my post above to include the six proposals in the -- daveinop 02/01/2022 5:17PM

My understanding is D1 will lay out it's new governance docs by August -- daveinop 02/01/2022 5:42PM

And what I have been suggesting is that if a new deal can't be done -- VTHokie2000 02/01/2022 5:35PM

Those complexities are what the Transformation Committee is dealing with -- daveinop 02/01/2022 6:37PM

When have I ever suggested that the any revisions to the CFP will be done -- VTHokie2000 02/02/2022 01:05AM

Why? Because you are wrapped around the axle of playoff models -- daveinop 02/03/2022 08:15AM

Yeah. And it all goes to the 800 pound elephant (or gorilla) in the room. -- Maroon Baboon 01/28/2022 4:08PM

Personally I always thought 9 was the magic number. -- VTHokie2000 01/28/2022 4:15PM

Whether it's 2 or 3, it's way better than the zipper model. Also invite -- Stech 01/27/2022 07:11AM

I doubt Navy would join as a full member unless Army receives the same -- VTHokie2000 01/27/2022 9:06PM

Army IMHO should be in the B1G, we need our Nations Academies where they’re -- Stech 01/28/2022 07:11AM

If some things are more important than football, then shouldn't that also -- VTHokie2000 01/28/2022 09:39AM

USMA, USNA and USAFA are national universities. -- Maroon Baboon 01/28/2022 3:59PM

I would agree the academies are probably not well suited for a power -- VTHokie2000 01/28/2022 4:03PM

Army will never be in ACC -- MrFantastic! 01/28/2022 05:13AM

My point though is that Navy intentionally left the CAA to join the Patriot -- VTHokie2000 01/28/2022 11:39AM

UNC needs 3. But might as well protect 3 for everyone to keep. Full list. -- Maroon Baboon 01/26/2022 11:40PM

If each team gets 3 protected games, then the remaining 10 teams could -- VTHokie2000 01/27/2022 01:05AM

Screw protected games! I don't care if we miss UVA one year or two... -- EDGEMAN 01/27/2022 04:12AM

The schools may feel differently than you about whether rivalries -- VTHokie2000 01/27/2022 8:58PM

Uva will never not be on dock ** -- MrFantastic! 01/27/2022 11:14AM

I want both. More conference games. -- Maroon Baboon 01/27/2022 07:35AM

I want out of having Fredo as our "protected" crossover game. -- EDGEMAN 01/27/2022 10:45AM

BC's three protected games should be Miami, Syracuse and Pitt. ** -- Maroon Baboon 01/27/2022 1:32PM

Should is the operative word here. How much trust do you have in the ACC -- VTHokie2000 01/27/2022 9:04PM

You are forgetting it's the ACC so VT's 2 rivals would be UVA and Fredo ;-) -- VTHokie2000 01/26/2022 10:30PM

This is huge the pieces are forming -- Mercury 01/26/2022 10:06PM

B1G talking about scheduling ACC & PAC12. -- HOO86 01/27/2022 5:15PM

Would love if the Alliance would morph into two conferences somehow. -- Maroon Baboon 01/28/2022 6:49PM

Or...Rose stays the same; ACC plays best remaining in the Orange -- daveinop 01/31/2022 11:08AM

Move OSU-Mich to earlier in season and then they play in championship game. ** -- Lakeridgehokie 01/26/2022 7:55PM

Moving the OSU-Michigan game to an earlier date makes about as much -- VTHokie2000 01/26/2022 9:28PM

Makes too much sense -- Millpoint 01/26/2022 6:33PM

Will the SEC do everything in it's power to block it? -- EDGEMAN 01/26/2022 6:44PM

Not likely the SEC wants it too -- Sunsetunderground 01/27/2022 09:53AM

SEC probably will -- Millpoint 01/26/2022 6:52PM

Most definitely ** -- EDGEMAN 01/26/2022 6:59PM

They can’t do it alone. ** -- Stech 01/26/2022 9:11PM

Phillips was smart to form the alliance -- Sunsetunderground 01/26/2022 4:30PM
