ND historically scheduled games with Ga. Tech. before sort of joining the ACC - although I could be corrected, as I did not bother to look at the history of that series. Notre Dame now must play 5 ACC teams annually and I believe ND has to spread this scheduling out equally amongst ACC teams. So, even though they also scheduled FSU and Ga. Tech some before this ACC relationship, they can't concentrate playing games with those two ACC teams.
