Not sympathy, but the current system is anything but fair.


If competitive fairness is the goal, what we're doing now is anything but that. Heck, some Coastal teams face FSU and Clemson some seasons, while others play Wake and Syracuse. That is a HUGE difference when one game is usually the difference in division standings.

It's also quite unfair when 1 loss Atlantic teams are sitting at home while 4 loss Duke squads are playing for a title in early December.

And don't get me started about the ratings and ticket sales. There would be a ton more interest in having the two highest ranked teams play than having a mismatch.

And BTW, VT didn't pick Boston college, but for better or worse, we're stuck playing them.
