The footprint that gives BC credit for all of Massachusetts?

BC is widely despised in state.  I am an alumni and i despise them.  UMASS amherst alumni number in the hundreds of thousands and they despise BC.  BU alumni are similarly numerous and they despise BC.  Ditto Northeastern.  And there are probably tens of thousands of UCONN alumni, or ( like me ) CT natives in state that despise BC.  In fact, i would wager that the VAST majority of the sports watching population in MA hate BC.  BC has a relatively small alumni base in state.  The Everyman does not identify with them.  The bandwagon UNC or Hurricane fans, plus the tiny alumni populations from all of the ACC schools combined, would not come close to offsetting the forces working against you here.

A cable company would be teasing a rattlesnake if they tried to bundle the ACCN on their basic tier.

If your hope in the ACC network lies in having symapthetic or even indifferent cities such as Boston - or states such as MA - looking the other way while their cable bill increases... well... good luck.
