And I think the probability of getting any of those pairs to accept is about as close to zero as you can get. I just don't see the ACC adding anybody at this point.
The ACC would go to 16 with Notre Dame + anyone. I think the football-first contingent would look at WVU. Louisville already broke the ACC's bar on academic qualifications. If WVU were still locked up in a GOR them it would probably be down to UConn or Navy.
The other two don't make any sense. Why not also throw out OSU + Michigan or Bama + LSU.
If ND did join up full, the ACC should (although still might not) take WV for #16 if available. Otherwise, Cincinnati or UConn for #16. They won't add a service academy.
