I'll take a stab at it: current ACC divisions leave too many good match-ups on the table while giving us too many unwatchable games.

Clemson vs. Miami and Clemson vs. Virginia Tech = great games
Clemson vs. Boston College and Clemson vs. Syracuse = not so much

Nothing against BC or 'Cuse - let 'em play each other, Pitt (who BC hardly ever plays) and Louisville. I enjoy a good BC/VT or Pitt/VT game, and I wouldn't mind seeing Louisville/VT more often, too. VT/UNC is fine, but VT/Duke? Not so much.

The ACC CG contestants are usually 2 of the best teams - if not the actual best 2. That's not the problem; it's the regular season that is hurt by the divisions as-is.

Syracuse has actually beaten Clemson in the last few years and another game Clemson had to score in the last minute to win. Not sure who else has had any better success?

Not denying Syracuse has played well against Clemson at times, just saying it isn't a matchup that casual football fans care to see. TBH, if Syracuse is one team I want the other to be BC, Penn State, Pitt, WVU, etc.
