Wonder if ND games will count as conference games for the ACC going forward.

They play 9 already, plus ND gets you to 10 then 2 G6 games.

If not, we'd never play Clemson, GT, FSU or Miami ever again since they have a P4 ooc rival.

ND potential future schedule breakdown:
5 ACC - Clemson + Stanford* + 3 rotating (*Would be more than fine dropping Stanford and have a 4th rotating ACC)
2 B1G - USC** & Purdue or Michigan St or Michigan (**Not sure USC would agree to play every year again?)
3 SEC - 1 A Tier (Alabama, Texas, Georgia, LSU, Texas A&M, Florida), 1 B Tier (Tennessee, Ole Miss, Oklahoma, Missouri, Auburn), & 1 C Tier (Vandy, Kentucky, Miss St, Arkansas, South Carolina)
1 Navy
1 G6*** - rotating (***Possibly replace this game with a 3rd B1G to keep Purdue annual?)

Now that Texas has already lost 2 and still has a tough slate to go, Sarkisian is gonna cancel the hell of the upcoming ND/UT series isn’t he.

The only reason he possibly doesn’t is the playoff expansion. But I think he still might try to duck it.

He might not be there much longer. They play ranked SEC teams the next few weeks. They're all one dimensional BSPN hype, but Arch might find a way to lose a couple of them.
Sark needs to consider switching quarterbacks to save his job.

I wonder if NBC would help pay the buyout of a lesser game to get ND SC back on the slate. Bet they would considering their poor viewership numbers.

The 2027 isn’t as bad as i originally thought. Clemson, Auburn, Wake should be borderline top 25 teams. VT and Duke should be good, BYU will return a lot they could be a top 3 team.

I really hope the "news" wasn't ND vs Kent State week one as opposed to a few weeks later as originally thought.

We both currently have no game scheduled 9/11 so playing them would make sense since USC are a bunch of terrorists.

I'd legitimately do anything to get out of the Clemson series. That game does absolutely nothing with their current state. Would still have 5 ACC teams.
