I figured that would happen. Like I've been saying ad nauseum ESPN wanted the ACC and SEC to stay at 8 so they would have more inventory to air on TV.

now... if we could only convince the ACC to take SMU and Tulane so we could make them our semi permanent ACC games...

My guess is we may see a rotation beginning in '17. Probably let Wake-Vandy restart and let the other 9 without a perm rival just rotate through.

I sort of wish we'd group them in 3s and rotate like:

LSU, A&M, UT = VT, UNC, NCSU
Bama, Auburn, Ark = UVA, Miami, Pitt
Mizzou, OM, MSU = Duke, Syracuse, BC

I didn't spend much time on groups so I'm sure it can be improved. But the idea is you just play home/home with each and then rotated through to the next. That way there builds some history/rivalries within the groupings without it getting stale. But you'd probably want to group them in a way that will create good games.
