I like the idea ND has a crossover SEC game as long as They count as an ACC replacement in the crossover. Already a partial member anyway and wouldn't hurt Them or the ACC credibility. Need ESPN to reup the contract look in adding WVU .
WVU isn't going to give the ACC much of a revenue boost, if any. If you could have your choice of a boost of $1-2 million per team OR a seven year reduction in the length of the contract, which would you take?
If this is worked properly, I think you're talking more like +$6M per team... but I agree on the length of the contract - it's too long already!
That would mean adding WVU to the ACC is worth $120 million a year to ESPN. I don't think so. Do you think the 'eers are worth more than half the ACC members? That's what it would take to get any per team increase, much less $6 million.
