This context matters a great deal.I read that the Stanford, Cal and SMU joining isn't truly finalized and they have until July 1 to get out without a penalty. Anyone know if that is true? I wouldn't think so, but that is what FSU fans are claiming.
If I recall correctly, July 1 is the actual date all of the about-to-be-former Pac 12 teams officially join their new conferences and the Pac 12 becomes the Pac 2.I read that the Stanford, Cal and SMU joining isn't truly finalized and they have until July 1 to get out without a penalty.

Why would they have to cancel their season? They could honor the schedule and renegotiate who gets paid what. They'd lose $$$ but canceling the season seems drastic.They're not backing out at this late of a date - they'd have to cancel their upcoming football season as there's no way you can fill out a full schedule on such short notice.
You honestly think the ACC would let them keep all of those games against other conference teams if they decided to back out of their realignment plans right now?Why would they have to cancel their season? They could honor the schedule and renegotiate who gets paid what. They'd lose $$$ but canceling the season seems drastic.
I doubt the ACC would honor those games if SMU, Stanford, and Cal decide not to join the conference, even if the money was renegotiated - it would create chaos for the conference standings as you'd have some schools playing 8 conference games and some schools playing as few as 5. Could you imagine the uproar if a school that went 5-0 in the conference made the championship game and bumped out a team that went 7-1?Why would they have to cancel their season? They could honor the schedule and renegotiate who gets paid what. They'd lose $$$ but canceling the season seems drastic.

But the ACC would also be lucky to fill those open dates. I think they'd come to some agreement.Because the ACC has the leverage and they'd be lucky to find 6 other teams in the country with open dates they could pay to play against them.
The ACC could easily just play an additional conference game for one year, even if they were OOC games like us and UNC.But the ACC would also be lucky to fill those open dates. I think they'd come to some agreement.
Are you serious with this ? There are 15 teams in the ACC playing football. I'm sure the league could work out 2 replacement games per team.But the ACC would also be lucky to fill those open dates. I think they'd come to some agreement.
It’s been 44 years since they won an ACC football title so surely the SEC or B1G would love some more fodder. 😁And how long with Tarhole foosball fans tolerate being the bottom of the SEC or B1G? They don't even really compete now in the ACC.
