Good morning.
Optional Musical Accompaniment
ESPN announced the schedule for the inaugural ACC/SEC Challenge — and to go off on a tangent, I actually like that we’re moving away from (a) a conference challenge that four SEC teams annually had to sit out because of an uneven number of teams and (b) a conference challenge that for some reason was in the middle of conference play. Other than that, I don’t like the reasons why we’re doing this (spoiler: because ESPN had to dump the ACC/Big Ten Challenge because the Big Ten signed a new television deal that deliberately left ESPN out) and I don’t particularly like that they stuck the men’s team with Boston College.
