Big 12's Brett Yormark calls out Notre Dame's Pete Bevacqua

Big 12 commissioner Brett Yormark took issue Tuesday with Notre Dame athletic director Pete Bevacqua's criticism this week of the ACC, calling his behavior "egregious."

After Notre Dame was left out of the College Football Playoff field in favor of Miami, who had a head-to-head win over the Fighting Irish, Bevacqua accused the ACC of favoring the Hurricanes over his school on social media and in league programming.

Yormark, speaking at the Sports Business Journal's Intercollegiate Athletics Forum on Tuesday, took aim at Bevacqua, saying Bevacqua "is totally out of bounds in his approach, and if he was in the room, I'd tell him the same thing.
