Perhaps the Notre Dame-BC footnote blongs in one of the articles about the rivalry itself? (ie the Holy War (college football), Ireland Trophy, or Frank Leahy Memorial Bowl) Once we start getting into why Notre Dame is playing Rutgers, I think we've taken the article a bit too much off course.

I removed the listing of a rivalry bewteen BC and Syracuse. I have never heard of this as anything more than a conference matchup. I looked into it and found nothing that supports more than just a casual conference rivalry.

This phrase:

" It is widely considered a good, but not great conference. Most would argue that leagues such as the Big East, Big 10, SEC, and even Conference USA are much better. For example, the University of Miami struggled in the Big East, but found life much easier and was very competitive in the ACC."

has been added and removed from the ACC article several times. I think it should be removed because it is an opinion, not neutral NPOV. In fact I disagree with the opinion - the ACC has 3 teams in the top 10 currently, more than the other conferences mentioned. The UM evidence is also not NPOV. I think that we should vote to keep this section out of the article.

• Support No reasonable individual would agree that "most" view all four conferences listed as better; arguments can be made either way, but the assertion is simply not NPOV. The Miami statement is fact, but whether it supports the assertion that the BE is better is a matter of opinion; perhaps Miami (and Virginia Tech) improved quite a bit for their inaugural seasons.

I removed this from the article: "The Atlantic Coast Conference is, academically, the most highly ranked scholarship-granting American collegiate athletic conference. Only the non-scholarship Ivy League holds a higher overall academic ranking." I don't necessarily doubt the claim, but before it can be restored to the article, it must be clarified. What exactly is meant by overall academic ranking? What "overall academic ranking" are we talking about? Even after that matter is clarified, sources must be added to prove that this is indeed the case. Dagga 20:47, 22 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
