Again, ESPN is not going to let the ACC fall apart or lose any more members to the Big 10 when they have such a huge investment in them. Losing teams to the Big 10 means they lose them to competitor FOX which they are going to move against. The ACC will get a full on network like the SECN before ESPN lets it collapse.

Think of the fallout from people if they hammer UNC, but let a pedophile-protecting program have its reductions in punishment
