Nope. Mistake is not making it a bigger factor. Fball's 80% of the money.


The ACC has learned the VERY hard way that football is exactly the lens they should be looking through. FSU saved their bacon recently by forcing them to look through that lens in adding Louisville instead of UCONN. They got forced to add VT instead of Cuse way back when. How crappy would that ESPN contract have been without an additional football power.

Now when it comes to the B1G, they have the football powers, but they lacked east coast markets. That's why they added Maryland and Rutgers. And it's not like Maryland and Rutgers have had horrible football programs in recent history anyhow. Both are better than Cuse and BC in recent football history.
