It’s never too early to begin looking at where your ACC is regards to the NCAA tournament, especially as we near conference play.

This will be a short post tonight, but I wanted to put some thoughts down on what I saw tonight in Charlotte, NC. First it was a heckuva effort by Georgia Tech. When they got down 21-3, it looked like there were going to get humiliated. In the 2nd half they played with a defensive …

There’s still an Orange Bowl trip at stake, and with the Kent St. loss the likely opponent looks like Louisville. I’m sure the Orange Bowl, and John Swofford are rooting for Florida State to win …

As you know I’m refraining from a daily discussion of expansion, but that doesn’t mean if an article is submitted to me that I won’t post it. Other folks have opinions on the topic and as you know we have an open policy on articles submitted here. My thoughts on the subject are here… with …
