In the last week, the most significant ACC news was definitely Virginia coming through and winning the College Baseball Title. The 1955 curse/titleless drought is over thanks to the Hoos. The ACC will win more College Baseball titles, but the 2015 Virginia Cavaliers will always be known as the team that ended the streak. Congratulations …

One word comes to my mind when I think this year’s Virginia Cavalier baseball team – RESILIENT. Shortly after the 1st inning ended yesterday in the series deciding UVA/Vanderbilt game I tweeted this out. It is early, but that first inning feels like it decided the game… #CWS2015 — Jeff or Jeffrey Fann (@TalkinACCSports) June …

Virginia you are our only hope… For any ACC baseball fan (except Wake Forest) hearing about ACC baseball title drought has become a source of annoyance.

When I said Jordan Spieth was going to win a U.S. Open , I didn’t know he’d win this week. I did him have right behind Rory Mcilory as my pre-tournament favorite. Even after making a double bogey on the 17th hole, Speith came back with a brilliantly played 18th that he ended up birdieing. What’s …

ACC Prescription correctly identifies the 2003-2011 seasons as a low point era for ACC football. The ACC won just 1 BCS game during …
