Sources: ACC closing in on new schedule format
The Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) is considering a new schedule format for its member schools. According to sources, the ACC athletics directors will meet on Monday in Charlotte to discuss two potential options: 1. A nine-game conference slate with an additional Power 4 (ACC, Big Ten, Big 12, Pac-12, SEC) game requirement. 2. An "8+2" model, which would feature eight conference games and two non-conference games against Power 4 opponents. The proposed changes aim to enhance the strength of schedule and competitiveness of ACC teams, which could have implications for their chances of qualifying for the College Football Playoff. The meeting will focus on the details and potential implementation of these new scheduling formats, as the ACC looks to adapt to the evolving landscape of college football.
