Miami

Put some bullet points on your list Greg...I know why Miami and FSU are #1/2 with you...
For some reason I thought Louisville would rank higher. You're correct about the weather in November here. It can be anywhere from 18 to 80 any given day so it's definitely a crap shoot.

Those are 5 tough road games!
Indeed they are. And I will add that Coach Petrino has now assemble the players needed to make Bobby Ball work.

Thanks for the kind words about Louisville.
What a road schedule! Wow. I'd have to throw LSU on top, then Miami ... but that is splitting hairs to me.
Good luck and safe travels!

Most years it would... not really a bad road game this Fall.
Louisville was hurt for the late season game.

+1. The beat(down) goes on for Syracuse football!

Gotta wait about another 10-12 years for the Hokies to play the Foil for the Protagonist at the Carrier Dome.

But you will get a road game in Blacksburg in about half the time.
Does VT really play in The ACC?
These crazy schedules don't allow teams to face each other often enough. I think Louisville gets VT in 2020 at home. Guess I'll be retired before we get to visit Blacksburg.

It takes the longest time to face our closest conference foe?!

It doesn't make a lot of sense does it?

No it doesn't... hopefully we can go to three pods of five teams sometime in future...gotta get the legislation passed and grab a 15th full member.

Yep, and it would be so easy with ND (I know they're never joining). You just need to protect NC State-UNC and I think almost everyone would be happy.
Pitt
Syracuse
ND
BC
Louisville
UVA
VT
Duke
UNC
WF

I love those PODs...but I see NCSt opposing it. All in all...those are awesome PODs.

Those are nice pods but I would consider switching Miami & WF for more balance. Play 1 or 2 permanent crossovers to maintain some rivalries. ND, without a permanent crossover, plays only 7 conference games.
