What's this?

That is one possible way of setting it up.


Another one that could work with a 9 game schedule is this one. You would play your POD, play a designated rival for each of the three other PODS, and rotate annually through the other three PODS. So there would be 6 that you always play and rotate the other three annually similar to what we do now.

POD A: Syracuse, Boston College, Miami, Pittsburgh
POD B: Virginia, Virginia Tech, Louisville, Georgia Tech
POD C: UNC, NC State, Wake Forest, Duke
POD D: Navy, Clemson, Florida State, West Virginia

You would play your row and your column every year. You would then rotate through the PODS for the remaining 3 games. Notre Dame would remain as it is with the 5 annual games. Navy would be football only. The ND-Navy game would become the ACC's 6th ND game and be allowed annually.

The only rivalry I see broken here with this arrangement is Clemson-Georgia Tech, and we would restore the Backyard Brawl. VT would pick up NC State and Clemson which some on here seem interested in having. We could move interchange VT and GT to possibly fix that and put VT with WVU.

  I wonder if the ACC and Big 12 are talking to each other. -- VT ChemE 1986 05/02/2016 8:31PM
  ACC has too many schools and they need 2... -- VictoryTurkey 05/03/2016 07:40AM
  If 2 teams are going to leave the ACC for the Big XII -- VTHokie2000 05/03/2016 11:48AM
  Syracuse is basketball and lacrosse centric. No way for them. -- HOO86 05/03/2016 12:16PM
  The Big XII is looking east to tap into the valuable eastern markets -- VTHokie2000 05/03/2016 12:29PM
  Better option is to merge 5 members into the ACC. -- HOO86 05/03/2016 2:17PM
  A problem with that is the Big Ten doesn't want Iowa St -- VTHokie2000 05/03/2016 2:29PM
  It could work if you have regional divisions. -- HOO86 05/03/2016 2:54PM
  The WAC tried the 4 regional pod with 2 rotating pod approach too -- VTHokie2000 05/03/2016 2:58PM
  The WAC covered 4 time zones, and got almost ZERO TV money. -- HOO86 05/03/2016 3:17PM
  For the 8 members (most were original members) that left -- VTHokie2000 05/03/2016 3:14PM
  Two 7 team divisions is worse. -- HOO86 05/03/2016 3:27PM
  It will require careful consideration and I am not suggesting -- VTHokie2000 05/03/2016 3:51PM
  That is one possible way of setting it up. -- HOO86 05/03/2016 4:50PM
  A similar scenario crossed my mind -- VTHokie2000 05/03/2016 5:56PM
  There will still be 2 divisions officially. -- HOO86 05/03/2016 10:21PM
  Right, but why would an ACC team leave for the Big12? the travel costs -- corvt2000 05/03/2016 1:17PM
  The most logical reason would be money -- VTHokie2000 05/03/2016 2:05PM
  Bottom line B12 schools are scarfing 12 school monies from -- BigCrumpy 05/03/2016 2:07PM
  Not necessarily true -- VTHokie2000 05/03/2016 2:12PM
  But the B12 has schools like Iowa State, and TCU -- BigCrumpy 05/03/2016 2:05PM
