I like it. This really is the best option for our conference championship game. Now let's hope the NC legislature doesn't do anything to trigger another boycott by NCAA/ACC [ducks]

For a man in his 60s, his reflexes were phenomenal. He had less than a second to react to that first shoe heading directly for his face, and he dodged it perfectly.
Not sure whether to sit or stand for this one.
Yeah I agree let's hope the NC legislature doesn't do anything that draws the ire of national media.
Read her lips. What's she saying, there? It looks like "horse fat".
I know what she's thinking about...
we might not make it to the NC, but at least we can play our championship game in NC.
I like it only because there really aren't better options, but honestly playing in Charlotte in December is a crapshoot on the weather. On a side note why does EVERY other sport it seems also has to placed in NC?
Why isn't FedEx a better option?
slightly worse weather, farther from all the down south schools, IT'S FEDEX. Also, Charlotte does a great job making the championship week a big deal. I don't see DC making the same effort.
Are you being serious?
Because it's in Maryland.
We were too hasty with our shoe throwing. Throw the other shoe at this comment.
Charlotte >>> Florida and hotlanta
If Atlanta Dome was an option there is no way the ACC would pass it up. It's by far a better stadium and city.
This is good. It makes sense, since Charlotte is the closest major venue to the geographic center of the conference (Reidsville, NC).
Compare this to the absurdity of the basketball tourneys this year: https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/the-ridiculousness-of-conference-to...
It's funny how much WVU pulls the centroid for the Big 12 towards the east.
It'd be cool if they did a random site once every 4 or 5 years like Fenway, Heinz Field, Miami, Orlando, etc
Charlotte is awesome. Terrific gameday experience. If VT is playing there, I am there. I can't say the same for FedEx, and I live in DC. Terrible stadium. Terrible parking. Terrible traffic. Terrible concessions. FedEx is the Newark of football stadiums.
I can count the number of football venues that I've been to on one hand, but I can say with almost complete confidence that there is no place worse than FedEx Field, and I've even been to a WVU game in Morgantown before. I've never been to a Redskins game before despite being a pretty big fan, but after experiencing FedEx Field for the first time last fall, I can honestly say that, until the Redskins move stadiums, I'm not paying for tickets to a game.
FedEx is the
