Historic Team Spotlight 2022: Conference Proximity (and also Florida State)

Georgia Tech Tech is Florida State’s closest conference member by distance, so today we ask, how far are all of the conference schools from one another?

To be honest, this idea came about in part as a way to finally write about the new ACC permanent matchups. There have been plenty editorial takes on the matter — why some schools were favored or not, who are the winners and losers, and things like that — so I wanted to make sure any take I had on the matter was new or different. Accordingly, I went on Google Earth, found the latitude and longitudes of all the conference schools, plugged them into the great circle distance formula, and started to crunch some numbers.
