Regardless, the location is not the issue here. BC fans don't travel. Not to Florida, not ANYWHERE! The only way to move a December game north is to find a dome to play in. Otherwise you need to push it as far south as is reasonable. I’m pretty sure BC never got higher than #2 in the polls. Regardless, the location is not the issue here. BC fans don’t travel.

VT and WVU have both came and represented for the Gator Bowl. I'm surprised that hardly anybody showed up. JMS is a big stadium, but damn that's embarrassing. Jax is a weird place for the ACC CG. It isn't an ACC town as much as a FSU town(and concerning FSU, that population is dwindling). I'm surprised we have that game. We sell out most of the time for the Gator Bowl. Oh well..

Jax is 550 miles from Blacksburg and 1150 miles from Boston. A quick check for non-stop flights shows... not much. I think the ACC needs to seriously consider taking the game on campus. The conference is just too wide spread to pull off the neutral site game. I agree - location, location, location. Jax is 550 miles from Blacksburg and 1150 miles from Boston.

I tneeds to be moved to Charlotte where it's in a more centralized position for the two teams' fans to easily make the trip... J-Ville is a little far for most people to make last minute plans for a quick weekend trip to a bowl game... Plane tickets get pricey and it's a little far for a weekend jaunt from Boston by car... Moving it to Charlotte puts it less than a days drive for all ACC fans... I think the bigger problem with the ACC CG is the current location…
