Darn... You removed the loop of the FSU pick from your sig. I was hoping to watch that a few more times.
I can put it back?

ND gets no ACC bowl money except if ND goes to a minor ACC bowl. That money is then split with the rest of the ACC.
If ND is not in one of those ACC bowls, it gets no ACC bowl money (as it should not).
.. which league affords our school the best opportunity moving into the future decades to get the best return of financial investment. These are the things that we fundamentally take away from ND's decision to accept the Hockey East's invite to them.
Actually, according to reports, they'll be no " flip of the coin " by any school in the ACC as all are assured a Bowl Game berth that are Bowl Game eligible.This will not be random. ND get the Pinstripe Bowl. Louisville will get a Tier 1 as will Duke. Clemson gets the Russell Athletic Bowl leaving the last for either BC or NCST. Maybe they will flip a coin for those two.
Yawkey sure is jealous of the B1G by his statements on this thread.
Well today they can use that money to see if they can find a Bowl Game for their players to go too. Maybe they should call the Murder Bowl committee today out there in the midwestern state of Michigan.All I know is Maryland wanted out of the ACC and into the B1G so bad that they willingly spent $30 million to do so.
Even begging and pleading won't get a BIG team to the Title game.What about an undefeated ACC Champion having to beg and plead to get into the CFP?
Such jealousy. It's kind of fun reading your posts.

True, but in Louisiana, if Cassidy wins over Landreiu tommorrow, there is at least a smidgen of a chance of finding a future pulse. Not so, Detroit, Mich. That once vibrant city is now completely cadaverous, imo.That title could just as easily go to New Orleans.
Actually I believe the big 12 would have as well... and of course the Big East already did.I think it is a safe assumption that the B1G will survive rather comfortably going forward. Just look at their network and their wallets. ND was looking for the deal they wanted and the ACC was the only conference willing to do it. Period.
Wait, does that mean that you once did?I caught Yakey in a lie he can't talk his way out of. Can't take anything he posts seriously now.
The B1G gave Maryland $20 million as a one time "travel allowance". I think this was just a way for the B1G to cover the exit fee for Maryland which was $20 million at the time of the Maryland-B1G secret negotiations. The ACC then upped the exit fee and Maryland and the ACC took each other to court, but agreed on letting Maryland go for the amount of money that the ACC had withheld from Maryland, which was $30 million. So you could say that the B1G paid for $20 million of the exit fee under the one time "travel allowance" and Maryland took a $10 million hit. Small price to pay when they will be raking in $45+ million a year as a fully vested member of the B1G.
Wasn't the travel allowance an advance to be deducted from future payments?

Stop. Just stop.
I have lived in Louisiana for the last 31 years. My law firm has some of the top lobbyists in the state. I was General Counsel for a Federally recognized Indian tribe. I have met and dealt with Louisiana politicians for a couple of decades or more.
All that will happen is one group of corrupt Louisiana politicians will replace the outgoing crop of corrupt Louisiana politicians.
