In the 50s, 60S and 70s Miami went up to ND and PSU every other year and were just as lousy as when they came down to the OB. Weather didn't make a difference.
Absolutely, agree 100%. With Miami, Clemson, FSU, OSU, Michigan, PSU and ND, there would be enough firepower to rival the SEC. This is more of a national conference and would be more appealing then the regional SEC.
