Should the #ACC Drop their conference tournament and play makeup games?

With uneven ACC schedules, the ACC Tournament week provides an opportunity to makeup 2 or 3 games in the ACC schedule. The tournament is more or less a fan gathering these days. It’s a fun and a great event, but it shouldn’t be played this year.

A poll was taken where more than 40% of fans agreed that makeup games should played. That is an astonishingly high number of fans that would consider cancelling event such as the ACC tournament. As more games get cancelled this number may rise.

Let’s get as many games made up as we can.
