The ACC footprint extends from New England and the "Tri-state" area in the North, south down the Atlantic coastline all the way to Miami, FL, and soon it will extend west along the Ohio River to Indiana and Kentucky, too.

I mean, 3 BCS titles in 4 years is a lot for one team... 7 in a row is a lot for one conference... could it be better football through science?DISCLAIMER: At this point I am not aware of any evidence whatsoever of wrong-doing by any former BCS champions,…
