Because the Big Ten sucks.

What do you describe what the ACC does in football? *

ACC has more national titles in last 20 and 30 year periods.

Example: Last 20 seasons, ACC - 5, Big Ten - 2. (Using AP)

There are other ways to measure the conference strength, of course, but this was the easiest to grab.

You can be such a dolt

The ACC has had a grand total of 2 good teams. One of which is on a recent and unprecedented uptick. The other is probably the prizewinner of the biggest cesspool in college football and one of the NCs you cite is rightfully ours. It is beyond cavil that the ACC is the dregs if the major football conferences

It’s hard to defend the ACC’s recent performance

Historically, it’s never been a power football conference. Since getting FSU and Miami, they have had the potential to be on par with the Big 12 and PAC-12, but they lack the depth of the Big 10 and the SEC. We shouldn’t play more than four games per year against them.

The ideal number would be 0

Practically speaking, to prop up our other sports, it would be 3.

The fewer the better *

If we played five B1G teams a year in football, including

cycling through the dregs like IU and Rutgers, and were in the Big Ten in everything else, including basketball, would that be better? Your answer still might be "Yes" but that's a question to ponder.

The answer to that is still the Acc

As

1. the schools are better fit in terms of size and mission

2. The recruiting footprint is far better for football

3. The Acc is a far better home for just about every sport

4. Whatever argument ACross has is likely solved with a H&H with Wisconsin

5.

Since when do you carry water for the Big 10? *
