Message: [QUOTE="Zack80, post: 3911911, member: 1245"] Big Ten was 4-2 out-of-conference against NCAA tmt teams. In the end, I think the ACC has lost a lot more top players that will be harder to replace. While the ACC's recruiting classes are stronger, especially at UNC, The Big Ten has done better with transfers. While the ACC is still stronger, the gap between the leagues should be about the same if not a little closer. Syracuse finished the regular season #11 in the coaches poll, then lost badly to Georgetown. Their recruiting class is not too strong and they haven't picked up many transfers. Notre Dame has a big face- off hole; lost 2 AAs from the defense, and look like a tentative top 10 team at most. [/QUOTE]
