    NCAA Elite Eight Games for Sat March 30

    SEC and B1G have used their football to craft Power Two basketball conference. This year is ACC's last chance to prove we are basketball superior. But ACC has failed. Alabama proves themselves are better than UNC and Clemson. SEC's domination will be more obvious from forwards.

    ACC vs BIG 12

    NET creator just said Big 12 and Mountain West just had bad lucky in March. I saw most analysts said that ACC teams are just ripe in the right time.

    GMAC to Siena [Official]

    If he aimed higher. The ceiling should be Buffalo.

    GMAC to Siena [Official]

    If he can take Buffalo to Sweet 16, Buffalo is likely to get B1G invite as NY flagship. That would be a bad thing for Syracuse.

    NCAA 2nd Round Games for Sun March 24

    Either the computer running NET has bad AI or it takes bribes from SEC/B1G/NBC/Fox alliance as the primary enemy of the alliance is ACC/ESPN. Fox and NBC want to take apart ACC and take a few good piece to enhance their lineup. But first the alliance needs to talk down ACC as much as possible...

    SEC = garbage conference

    P6 on the round of 64: PAC12 4-0 ACC 4-0 BE 3-0 B1G 4-2 Big XII 5-3 SEC 3-5
  12. B

    Fifteen teams on NET Top 40 lost their first game.

    It is clear that NET is a bad ranking tool. So many upsets on the first round of NCAA tournament.

    NCAA 1st Round Games for Thurs March 21

    Not only we will see Duke vs Dukes on Sunday and we have a chance to see Duke vs Dukes again in the tournament.

    OT - F Ohio State

    B1G and SEC will always get star treatments on field and court because of huge following fans.

    NCAA First Four Games for March 19-20

    BC beating Providence tells us that ACC is underrated and Big East is overrated. Thanks God NCAA committee did not send six teams to tournament as projected.

    Slow death of the ACC takes another major step

    Syracuse is pseudo state flagship of New York. But withdrawn from AAU is a big mistake. Hope we increase spending on research and re-apply back to AAU. Also I believe SU has righted the ship on football with the new coach. Expect football be competitive again.

    Slow death of the ACC takes another major step

    But SEC and B1G are using their football advantage to gain advantages on basketball. Soon SEC and B1G will gain advantage on all fronts like in academics. They will have better athletes and better students. It already showed in recent years that ACC no longer has dominating power on basketball...

    Syracuse MBB finally releases a statement

    It looks so bad. Look like SU program sank so low that we cannot even get a NIT bid.

    NIT Bracketology

    But not openly like Indiana, PItt and St. Johns.

    NIT Bracketology

    Pitt also said no. But I like to see us say yes.

    Selection Sunday Show Discussion (Gripes, Rage, Biases, Happiness, whatever welcome)

    But ACC did well in the past five years even NET showed the conference is in down years. So to be safe, the committee does offer ACC five bids as usual. I think five is the minimal number for ACC.
  24. B

    NIT Bracketology

    Just a reminder. NIT selection show will be aired on ESPN2 at 9:30 PM EST.
  25. B

    Selection Sunday Show Discussion (Gripes, Rage, Biases, Happiness, whatever welcome)

    Clemson do finish the 6th place on ACC standing. I think Pitt(4th place) is more qualified than Clemson. I think Clemson is better in the eyes of committee because it has two wins against SEC schools while other ACC seldom played SEC schools.
  26. B

    Selection Sunday Show Discussion (Gripes, Rage, Biases, Happiness, whatever welcome)

    At best, only Pittsburgh or Clemson will be selected. Both might miss it. This is a very down year for ACC.

    If I told you before our game with NC State

    Clemson has all computer ratings and NET at lower 30's. They should be in. All you have to do is to beat the mighty Alabama, then their NET stayed high no matter how many games they lost.
  28. B

    ACCT Games for Mar 15-16

    Most likely knock out Pitt who is the 4th place. Virginia is safer than Pitt because they are in the third place.
  29. B

    NC State

    If NC state wins today, it will take Pitt's place. I think we would have been bump out of NCAA tournament if we reached ACC tournament final but did not win the championship. Too many teams steal bubble teams' place this year.

    Miracle three pointer sent VA NC State game to overtime.

    ACCT Games for Mar 14

    ACC schools are better than analysts and computers think they are. There is only one bad team, Louisville this year.

    ACCT Games for Mar 14

    I posted this before NC state plays Duke and Pitt play Wake. Somehow all my feelings about games all came true lately. Should go to casinos.

    ACCT Games for Mar 14

    What if NC State(beating Duke) win over Pitt(beating UNC) on the championship game. Also Oregon won PAC12. Does 6 quad one win Syracuse deserves to be in NCAA tournament?

    ACCT Games for Mar 13

    We have better talents on some positions. But BC is a balanced and complete team.
  35. B

    Hopefully many of you will take at least a 24 hour self imposed vacation.

    I am not upset. The season went better than I expected when it began. We are a young team and has no center. Reaching 20 wins is a miracle. Hope SU can have some more wins in NIT. We finished 7th place in ACC and should win an invitation to NIT.

    NC State opens -1.5 over Cuse…

    I don't think we can beat Duke if we pass NC state. The team is too young.
  37. B

    Anybody know Anything about NC State?

    They are third tier ACC team. I would say Duke, UNC and Clemson belong to the first tier. Virginia, Pitt, Syracuse and Wake are the second tier.

    2023-24 Coaching Carousel

    It is the school, not the coach. There is not a successful coach in DePaul in the past 60 years.
  39. B

    ACCT Games for Mar 12

    At least Duke is more beatable than UNC. We got a good draw. NC State, Duke and Virginia are all beatable. And hope some one else knocks off UNC.

    Odds to win ACC Tournament...

    Wake will face Notre Dame/Georgia Tech winner. I don't think Wake can win one game.

    ESPN2 Problems Anyone

    No problem for me. When I had problems with my cable, it is normally hand-shaking problem. Try unplug and plug back HDMI cable first. Then if not fixing your problem, power off then power on your device.

    2024 ACC Men's Basketball Tournament Projections

    I think fifth seed Wake Forest is screwed. Both Notre Dame and GA Tech become much better near the end of them. Either can beat Syracuse, Clemson and Wake. And Wake got the draw to play the winner of Notre Dame and GA Tech, the two dangerous low seed teams in this tournament.

    Filipowski better be suspended

    Flip fell down and Duke was about to face 5 vs 4. He had to slow that guy down and it is the straightforward thing to do in Flip's condition. I fall, you fall.

    2024 ACC Men's Basketball Tournament Projections

    How the mighty Miami falls. From last year's national Final Four to the fourteenth place of ACC.

    Filipowski better be suspended

    There is a difference between Duke and Syracuse. Duke is co-host of ACC and Syracuse is a guest of ACC.

    Filipowski better be suspended

    He has PTSD because of that Wake Forest student.
