Much as I enjoy VT playing ECU, that STINKS (not playing FSU, Clemson and Louisville more).

RE: P5 Outsmarting themselves.
The SEC is going through the same thing. LSU will only play Georgia and Tennessee twice each in 12 years, will only see them at home once every 12 years. That's bull-@#$%. Seniors will never get to play all the teams in their conference. Stupid 6-1-1 scheduling with 7 team divisions.

Also why I don't want to expand the AAC after Navy. UCF has already missed Cincinnati twice, and it's going to happen some more in the future.

Georgia once went 25 years (1953-78) without playing LSU at all, and for half of those years the SEC only had 10 teams.

Georgia and Tennessee -- despite the geographic proximity -- didn't play each other at all from 1937-'68. And only sporadically (8 times in 22 years) after that, until the divisional format was put in place.

I hope we never go above 12. All these conferences that have gone to 14 are having scheduling fallout issues.
