The ACC can breathe a little as conference realignment talks elsewhere slow down

The latest round of college football musical chairs may be on hold for a while following a couple of developments on Monday—not bad news by any means for the ACC at this point.

Pete Thamel reported yesterday that talks about a potential partnership between the Big 12 and Pac-12 have ended, and while this doesn’t necessarily preclude some Pac-12 schools from flipping leagues, such a move also doesn’t appear to make a lot of financial sense. At minimum, those schools might as well wait to see how the Pac-12’s latest television negotiations pan out.

Notre Dame, meanwhile, does not appear anxious to join a conference in the near future.
