The end of divisions – in college football.

 

Divisions have been more of a problem than a solution for the Atlantic Coast Conference for years. The ACC is now primed to finally dump its divisions for a new schedule model, and other conferences are likely to follow. Andrea Adelson from ESPN and the ACC Network joins AP’s Ralph Russo to dig into the future of ACC scheduling, how the conference could benefit from breaking free from divisions and just how tough it is to come up with yearly rivalries that please everybody. Plus, how important is this season for Gus Malzahn and UCF as they prepare to join the Big 12 and is it make-or-break for Mike Norvell at Florida State?
