Pleased that Duke won, they represented the ACC and so many familiar kids from NJ and NY that Ive seen. We did not need to listen to the BigTen bragged about having two teams in final four especially when their lead team, Maryland was a ACC departure in 15".
Having two Ivies would have been tolerable though some would have been flipping out that Albany and Cornell , were upstate teams . At least Maryland has their fair share of kids from up north to root for..
To be honest, I was upset when Cuse left to join the ACC because I had such fondness for Big East basketball. Remember that conference in the 80's and 90's , remember how we place 3 in Final Four in 85 and two including Cuse in 87 . I now root for our ACC counterparts against other conferences. Hoping that the ACC in lax will once again be the old Big East of Basketball, the current SEC of football.
