That way BC plays every ACC team, including ND at least 1x every 3 years. Right now it is almost like 2 leagues the way the crossover schedule works. The schedule has gotten real stale and with the bad (up to this upcoming season at least) OOC schedule, there is nothing to draw anyone to games.

Best idea I've seen was from BCI, 3 annual opponents and 5 rotating, which would mean you're playing each of the other teams every other year. I think the proposal I saw had Syracuse, Pitt, and Wake as BC's annual opponents although I'd replace Wake (or even Pitt for that matter) with Miami. Either way something has to change, the fact that we play the Coastal schools (other than VT) only once ever 6 years and only host them once every 12 or whatever it is is ridiculous.

How are you calculating 4 road games in a row?

I am disappointed that we never seem to get a decent distribution of home games across the season in general. We shouldn't be pumped for 7; it should be the norm (if everyone else can and does do it). Blame for recent <7 home skeds probably lies with the folding of NU and Hofstra programs and Army's shiftiness, but I'm going to blame Flipolean instead.
