If The ACC chose to invite UConn we would add another flagship university with multiple competitive programs. Those that believe a spot should be held for Notre Dame are sadly mistaken. The Irish will never give up their independence unless they are forced to.

I say grab UConn, go to 9 conference games and move on.

I don't see the downside of UConn being in the B1G. It might even shake PSU loose.

Nothing screams "PSU should join the ACC" better than PSU being in a pod w/ UConn, Rutgers, and Maryland.

And a division of OSU, MSU, Michigan, PSU, Indiana, UConn, RU, and UMD might actually be worse for PSU. The teams in the top half are too good to consistently beat (higher level), and the teams in the bottom half are consistently too bad to ever be interesting to fans, players, or recruits.
