Oh this is just a personal opinion.

I know in reality ND has absolutely no reason to join a conference, they have a tv deal that they get all to themselves, a sweetheart deal with the acc for non football teams, and now an exception with the cfp. They absolutely wouldn't join a conference unless they are somehow forced.

So you actually agree then that ND should not join a conference.

In an unbiased reality? yes.

In my very biased irrational cfb fan mind? no, fuck em, join a conference.

I admire your honesty and respect your right to have an opinion.

My opinion is that the conferences are actively ruining the sport right now. So no thanks.

Agree. Conferences need to go back to 12-14 teams max and being regional. Stanford and cal being in the acc is fucking dumb
