My Thoughts On The ACC Conference Expansion Rumors | College Football 2023

On Tuesday, rumors around the ACC Conference's own expansion plans began to circulate in the College Football world. While I think ACC expansion is necessary to protect the league and to keep the remaining Pac-12 schools from sinking into the group of 5 conferences...
