ACC Announces 12-year Agreement with Orange Bowl

Update (11/15/12): ACC's official release is here: http://www.theacc.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/111512aaa.html.

ESPN's Brett McMurphy broke the news on the ACC's 12-year deal with the Orange Bowl.

The highlights, or what caught my eye:

  • Each ACC school will receive a minimum of $2 million per year. (The Rose and Sugar each fetched $80 million / year.)
  • The opponent pool, the best team among the 2nd-3rd B1G/SEC team or ND, was the best the ACC could do considering they didn't have a dedicated partner.
  • The league avoids the Big East and rematches.

What are y'all's thoughts?
