B1G got the ACC’s trash in Maryland


Nov 1, 2018, 12:13 PM

Best part of article:

“The funny thing is Maryland and Rutgers shouldn't even be part of the Big Ten. They were brought in because of recent expansion, as the Big Ten sought more eyeballs for its television network. All those households in New York and New Jersey and Baltimore and D.C. were enough for the decision makers to ignore how awkward the fits were. These are coastal campuses in a midwestern league. Terps fans will always be ACC. Flyover country isn't Sopranos. The football programs were and still are afterthoughts. Rutgers has gone through a slight rebuild since it helped create the game in the 1869. Only about 150 years of bad luck. Meantime, no one has feared the turtle since Boomer Esiason was slinging it 30 years ago. The league ignored the muck, and now that sludge is dripping all over their heads.”

That's the truth! I can remember back to the mid-60s.......

and don't remember Maryland ever seeming to fit into the ACC. And have you noticed anybody in the ACC missing them since they left? No!

Virginia Tech has been a good addition IMO...

Louisville...not so much especially recently !!!

Asfor Cuse, Pitt and BC...if they all left tomorrow no one would care.

Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.

We probably should have locked the door after BC came in.

Child molesters, wife beaters, rapist and murderers. it's the B1G way

Maryland brought very little to the ACC table...


Nov 1, 2018, 1:12 PM

and their fans were among the absolute worst in the league.

Speaking entirely for myself, I was elated when they chose to leave.

Good riddance !!!

As students we went to several away games. Other than uscjr, the only bad experience was at the twerps.
