This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

If we joined the ACC, I would like to see a North/South divisional alignment (which would put Florida State and Miami in the same division), but I doubt the rest of the conference will go for it. I've been thinking a lot about this, and I think this is the alignment that would occur if we were to join.

Atlantic Division

Boston College
Florida State
Georgia Tech*
Louisville
North Carolina State
Notre Dame
Syracuse
Wake Forest

Coastal Division

Clemson*
Duke
Miami
North Carolina
Pittsburgh
Virginia
Virginia Tech
West Virginia (I think they're the school who gets added to maintain an even number)

* I realize Clemson and Georgia Tech are in the opposite divisions of what I have them in, but I think they get swapped in this scenario for the sake of competitive balance.

As for crossover opponents, I believe we get Pitt as our crossover opponent and Syracuse gets West Virginia (Syracuse gets an annual game against us in exchange for dropping Pitt as its annual crossover opponent). All other crossover pairings remain the same.
