The Orange Bowl should be moved to Orlando.

Nobody wants to travel to Miami any more and Orlando would be a much easier and enjoyable trip for all ACC members except for Miami who won't be able to particiate anyway.

Have you been to Orlando lately? Mix Myrtle Beach, Mickey Mouse, that ######## Columbia, bugs, and hot/humid weather in January, and you got Central Florida. Honey, pack the van, we're spending New Year's in Orlando!!

However, I'm not sure when your last visit to the Citrus Bowl was but that place is a DUMP. The city has been promising to upgrade it however, they build the Magic a new Arena, update our Performing Arts Center, and now the city is out of money. And it's a shame because had it had the facelift I think it would have been in consideration for being one of the 6 bowls in the new bowl system. Even the SEC & Big 10 have not renewed their contract to play in the Citrus bowl past 2014. Anyone rememeber the horrible field conditions of 3 years ago?
While it makes travel sense, until they update this place (namely nicer facilities and suites); you won't get sponsorship buy in for it. You really need a full time pro stadium to host a major BCS bowl in my opinion.
