Tagged: ACC Football, Ireland
Well…I guess they can expect a larger crowd than at a BC home game. So, this probably is a pretty good move. Maybe George O’Leary could come be an honorary coach for the Yellow Jackets?
ACC commissioner John Swofford once flirted with the idea of taking ACC football across the Atlantic Ocean, and it appears it will become a reality. Boston College and Georgia Tech will reportedly participate in the 2016 Croke Park Classic in Dublin, Ireland.
Eurosport.com reports the two ACC schools have a deal in place to participate in the 2016 edition of the Croke Park Classic, although when that game is played has yet to be finalized. According to the report, the game may move later in the season rather than to serve as a season opener. If the game remains a part of the ACC football schedule in 2016, then an October trans-Atlantic conference game could be in play.
