Miami already plays Syracuse, BC, Rutgers and Temple all teams in the North East.
I currently live in the NE, I used to live in the south and college football is dead up here compared to down south as is most college athletics unless your talking about lacrosse
Unless its Notre Dame, we wont see a major difference in collegiate athletics, especially football when speaking of the exposure Syracuse and BC will bring.
How much exposure does Miami get against those other teams up here.
its not Miami vs FSU or UF.
North East is pro first. You have the Giants, Jets, Mets, Yankees, Patriots, Bills, Knicks, Nets, etc.
Syracuse won a National title in basketball and the media up here gave Syracuse their 15 minutes of fame, but thats about it.
Maybe the ACC has the money to bring that exposure, but if like i said the NCAA is going up against a territory that is pro oriented first.
A conference about to expand should be very news worthy but I have heard more about the upcoming NFL season than the ACC expansion.
Just like Syracuse it has made its way to the papers up here in the back of the sports section but you wont hear nothing else.
I hope the ACC does get the expansion, it will be great for all the teams here just dont expect alot from the NE exposure
