As far as national exposure no. Not yet. The BIG TEN is now coast to coast. As far as football programs yes. Clemson is the only team outside the SEC that could beat Bama'. The Irish played in one National Championship game & two playoffs under Kelly. What the talking heads aren't taking into consideration is the history of Miami & Florida St. Those two are sleeping giants. When they played each other those were can't miss games. Notre Dame - Miami. There wasn't a bigger rivalry in the country. If the ACC could bring in Kansas for basketball and maybe Oregon & Stanford THEY are now coast to coast. Stanford brings in academics and Oregon brings in Nike. Notre Dame now plays five ACC games. Add three more for a conferance schedule & have the ACC add a semi final game. Stanford stays on the schedule. Keep Navy. USC is a great rivalry but who the hell thought they would be in the BIG TEN. They serve no purpose now. Notre Dame belongs in the BIG TEN but the ACC has value. This next year will probably change the course of Notre Dame History. Who would have thunk it.
