ACC Expansion?

Ideally N. D., but if not,
Bite the bullet ACC. Ask Conn. and Rutgers to join.
North Div.----Syr.,Conn., Rutgers, Boston College, Maryland, Virginia, V. Tech, Pitt.
South Div.----Miami, Fla. State, Ga. Tec., Clemson, and four NC schools.
Football--play seven games in division.  This will leave room for schools to be more flexible with their scheduling and keep old rivalries intact. They would have the option of scheduling more games against the other division teams if they care to, but only seven in division games will be used to decide division champion. (North versus South in the championship game.--Might make for some interesting cheers??)
 Basketball--Home and home in division, but only one game against other division teams.  ACC tournament to be scheduled to have a North and South team meet in championship game.
This will help with travel expenses, encourage regional rivalries and allow flexibility in schedule to allow existing rivalries to continue.
This big twelve stuff just doesn't make any sense.
To some this regional stuff might seem old fashioned, but maybe , with a four team playoff for the national champion, old fashioned is the way to go.
Just a thought guys.
