Articles from around the ACC Blogosphere February 20, 2012

Austin Rivers, Jontel Evans

I might be a little pressed for time tomorrow, so I’m going ahead and putting out my weekly Articles from around Blogosphere a day early. There’s so much going on starting with some NC State fans who are steaming mad at ACC official Karl Hess for ejecting a couple of NC State legends Saturday against …

ACC NCAA Bubble Analysis for February 19, 2012

FSU_basketball

For the first time in a couple of weeks the number of ACC teams I’ve had in the NCAA tournament has dropped from 6 to 5 teams.  Who dropped out? Take a look below. In my ranking system, any RPI top (100) win is a good win and any RPI top (50) obviously worth more. …

Is there any doubt Virginia’s Mike Scott is the ACC Player of the Year?

NCAA Basketball: Virginia at Stanford

Coming off a loss Tuesday night at Clemson, Virginia was looking a little shaky. Despite a 19-6 record they had fallen to 6-5 in the ACC with a dangerous Maryland team coming to Charlottesville. Frankly if the Cavs had lost Saturday that would be the NCAA bubble off in the horizon, but as he’s done …

Just how long is Clemson’s losing streak at North Carolina?

1UNC_large

The streak is 55 games and counting. 55 times Clemson has went to Chapel Hill and left with a loss to North Carolina. The Tigers have been trying since 1926 to win at Chapel Hill. To that put into perspective, let’s go over a few streaks that have happened 55 times or more. Joe DiMaggio’s …

So the ACC may have an expansion model with Notre Dame and UCONN. Do you like it?

ND

The Hartford Courant is reporting that the ACC has a model for expansion with the additions Notre Dame and UCONN. Now way back in September I wrote that the ACC shouldn’t expand beyond the soon to be 14 teams, unless that is Notre Dame joins and brings a partner. At the time I didn’t ask …

Clemson pulled off surprising upset of Virginia Tuesday night, and Clemson Blog ShakinTheSouthland says that’s how you finish off a close basketball game. Keep …

Phil Mickelson and Tiger Woods is still the rivalry we all want to see.

Golf - HSBC Champions Trophy

I like to watch golf. I’m not every an every weekend golf fan, but I know the players. I normally watch the majors and some of the bigger golf events. I also tune in when Phil Mickelson and Tiger Woods are both in contention. Judging by Sunday’s TV ratings, which were CBS’s highest Pebble Beach …

ACC NCAA Bubble Analysis for February 12, 2012

TP_262113_CASS_acc3_9

More jockeying for position this week…. How are things shaping with selection Sunday quickly approaching? In my ranking system, any RPI top (100) win is a good win and any RPI top (50) obviously worth more. Any losses outside the RPI top (100) is considered a bad loss, and outside the RPI (150) are even …

Jeremy Lin got me to pay attention to the NBA before May.

Lin

I’m not a big NBA fan nor do I claim to be. In fact I pretty much don’t pay attention to the NBA until about May when the playoffs start. By that time the college basketball is over and the Masters has just finished. I actually enjoyed the Dallas Mavericks and Miami Heat NBA Finals …

Is the ACC on the cusp of it’s next great era of basketball?

michael-snaer-florida-state-VS-duke

The ACC’s reputation as a basketball conference is historically unmatched. In the last 25 years, no conference has more national titles or Final 4. That said the conference as a whole has fallen on some lean times when it comes to basketball. Yes the ACC has won 2 of the last 3 national titles, and …

Austin Rivers

So Wednesday night was another Duke\UNC classic with the Blue Devils stunning the Heels on a last second 3 point shot by Austin Rivers. Below you can find the ACC’s Digital Network analysis of the game with highlights. Well they are highlights for Duke fans. I got some thoughts on the game as well, and …
