I do have one question about the ACC members

If Clemspn left, do you guys think any of them would miss us or not really? What do they think of us as a member?

The others probably wouldn't care any less which is OK by me because, quite frankly, I don't really give a **** about them either.

Clemson is our best conference rival. We've been playing you guys in conference for 29 years, and many times before that.

I'd say just about all of them except Duke.

Just about all of the other ACC fans acknowledge Clemson as the best away game experience anywhere in the country, so any ACC football fan would miss that.
Most of my NCSU friends love the Clemson game.
Most of my VT friends do too.
BC fans seem to have formed a connection to the Clemson game. They rave about it online.
UNC is kind of a love-to-hate relationship.
Wake fans consider us (along with UNC) to be their white whale. Ever since we destroyed them in the early 80's, they relish any change to chip away at us.
GT is obvious.
Can't speak for Miami fans, but it certainly has been a great game since they joined...numerous overtime thrillers.
I think Virginia fans would miss it in the "Old School ACC" kind of way.
Maryland...eh...not sure?
Duke is the only one where I feel confident that they wouldn't care. Culturally we have nothing in common, we usually pound them and they shrug and wait until basketball season.
Now the counter question is, what Big 12 schools (existing) would get excited to play Clemson. Maybe TCU since some of them really enjoyed the visit a couple years back. Certainly WVU as they would just be excited to be in the same timezone. Texas? Meh. Baylor, Texas Tech, Ok State, Oklahoma, Kansas, Kansas State, Iowa State? Nope. None of them would think anything of it except for "Ugh...that's a long trip."

Agree with pretty much all of that except

i think some of those big12 schools might change that "ugh....that's a long trip" into "hey, nice campus in a place with more geographic diversity than a small mound or bluff, great game atmosphere in a state/region we've never recruited very much or well. Sweet!"

I wonder if all this is a plan to get rid of Clemson...maybe I'm just paranoid when it comes to the ACC. However, look at the history....
