AJC: Mr. College Football discusses expansion (USF to ACC)

[Atlanta Bull]

ACC: After losing four teams, the league goes back to its basketball roots and adds West Virginia and Connecticut in order to make it’s men’s basketball tournament a marquee event again. There will be a fight about taking South Florida because the ACC doesn’t want to give up that state as part of its footprint. There will also be a fight about going back to 12 teams because the strongest schools in the league, Duke and North Carolina, still don’t like being in a conference that big because they believe it dilutes the basketball product.

Also some positive comments by readers on USF
