Minnesota Michigan Maryland Rutgers All lost, did I miss anything? ACC appears to be 4-1 with Cuse, Pitt, UNC and Louisville winning and Miami losing, though of course someone had to lose that game Let's hope this holds through the major Bowls, though the ACC match ups on Tuesday look tougher for Duke, BC and Va Tech...could easily see 1-2 or 0-3 there. But the BIG's wed match ups look tough too with Iowa vs LSU, Wisconsin vs USC and Nebraska/Georgia. Oh and MSU could struggle against Stanford. Unfortunately, given the landscape changes, don't we have to root for these ACC teams? Yuck.

As of right now Ga Tech is struggling vs the SEC -- aside from that defensive switching thing, did anyone ever uncover just how we got absolutely smoked by Ga Tech? Makes no sense

The Big 12 got/took credit for WVU's shellacking of Clemson a couple years ago so there's precedent for that. That's in large part because bowls mean as much for next year as they do for this year as far as national perception, so Rutgers and Maryland are the B1G's problem, not the ACC's. Louisville/Miami is a wash.

That was my (primitive) thinking
 
Yeah, I look at it as future teams since it's all happening next year.

How the formal #'s look (i.e. Maryland against ACC's record) isn't useful to me. Unless, of course, Maryland won. Shhh. They didn't anyway.
 
Well, I count Louisville for the ACC and MD and Girls for the B1G. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!
if I wasn't on the road driving past your neighborhood on the way back to N.Y. I would have beaten you to that thought
