In a recent interview with Ross Bjork, he mentioned that we were close to finalizing an out of conference home and home(or neutral site) with a team from one of the big 5 conferences starting in the year 2016 ( I could be wrong about this date). As a fan, who would you like us to play?

I think an ACC team would be great just for proximity. UNC, Virginia, Vtech, NCState

I want UVA. Would be nice to vent some frustration.

Agree, and a fricking fantastic road trip to Charlottesville. Always wanted to go. Great university and town, apparently.

I'd like to play Virginia or Illinois, maybe even Minnesota to get revenge for them getting the AP title over us in 1960

I like the UVA or UNC thoughts. I'll take a pass on VaTech however.

Top of my list would have to be either UCLA or Arizona St. I'd like to see us go out west and play, and would absolutely love it if we played in the Rose Bowl. Also Tempe is an awesome place and they have a classic stadium aswell. Both of those trips would be a whole lot of fun.

I'd like to go out West just to help with recruiting, but it won't happen.

I'd love to play Michigan, Notre Dame, Nebraska or Iowa and score a win over a big name with inferior football talent. Seeing their message boards before and after the game would be glorious.

I also wouldn't mind showing our faces out west at the likes of Arizona State, Oregon State, Cal or UCLA.

I'm guessing it will be NC State, Indiana or someone along those lines.

Illinois.


Crete Monee. Plainfield South. Peoria. Simeon. De LaSalle.



Oklahoma , Ohio State and Notre Dame have recruited the hell out of these schools for years... Played for championships with those players... But they can't offer the SEC brand or the exposure of the SEC Network like we can... Maybe Notre Dame can with their NBC deal.. But at the same time, they get the shite kicked out them by SEC schools.

Good points. And we would rape them in the actual game. They always blow for some unknown reason. They should be legit every year, but never are.

I'd love to beat the crap out of some BigTen team.

I agree. We pawn other conferences regularly, but don't get many shots at them. Would be fun

I think we would get the most out of whooping a big 10 school. Kids from ACC areas already head to SEC. Would be good to get some exposure in BIG 10 area and whoop their arse at the same time.

But I am still biased just to say UNC because other than my immediate family, everyone else was a Tar Heel so I love Chapel Hill. But beating up on an Iowa/Illinois/Michigan would be great
