While we have known about the addition of three teams to the ACC for several months now, the time is nearly here for this to take effect. SMU will be joining the ACC after departing the American Athletic Conference (AAC) effective July 1, 2024. California and Stanford will be departing the Pac-12 and joining the ACC effective August 2, 2024.
Note: Due to the by-laws of the Pac-12, Cal and Stanford are not able to join until August 2, 2024.
Southern Methodist University (SMU) is located in Dallas, Texas. The private Methodist school was founded in 1911 and has an enrollment of about 12,000. Their nickname is the Mustangs and their school colors are red and blue.
The University of California, Berkeley (Cal) is located in Berkeley, California. The public schoolwas founded in 1868 and has an enrollment of about 45,000. Their nickname is the Golden Bears and their school colors are blue and gold, specifically Berkeley blue and California gold.
Stanford University is located in Stanford, California. The private non-sectarian school was founded in 1891 and has an enrollment of about 17,000. Their nickname is the Cardinal (a tree) and their school colors are cardinal and white.
We will dive deeper into the addition of these three teams this summer. We will look into the different sports each school will bring with them.
Happy Tuesday and Go Cards!
