ACC moves NC State vs. Virginia football game from Brazil to Virginia

The ACC has relocated the scheduled college football game between NC State and Virginia from Rio de Janeiro back to Charlottesville, Virginia, set for August 29. The relocation follows operational reviews and communication from Athlete Advantage, which indicated the event could not proceed as planned. Fans who purchased tickets for the event will receive refunds. There was reported lagging in ticket sales for the matchup, which was touted as the debut of FBS college football in South America. The financial implications of the cancellation are still unclear, although NC State is set to receive $1.5 million for a 'material breach' of agreement.
