What a proud moment for Georgia Tech fans today including myself. How did Jacket fans react? I hope Kyle Sturdivant gets a ton of recognition for his game tonight. Hard to understate the impact he had. Beat FSU’s pressure so many times without turning the ball over. Being able to rely on him changed the …

After loss, Clemson’s Aamir Simms forced to call out ugly fans.
On Wednesday Brad Brownell’s Clemson team was defeated by Miami in an upset 67-64. Miami has been shorthanded all season, but from time to time have come up with a stellar performance against a heavy favorite. They have beaten Louisville and Duke. Fully healthy they knocked off Purdue, and lost to ranked Virginia Tech twice …

New March Madness is upsetting for Duke and North Carolina
Everyone knows this college basketball season has been unlike others with neither North Carolina nor Duke ranked. Stranger than that is to think of North Carolina and Duke as Cinderella stories in the upcoming ACC and NCAA tournaments. Teams mounting a roll with upsets are Cinderella stories. North Carolina and Duke will need to defeat …

Never doubt Tony Bennett, Virginia is still the king of the ACC.
After Gonzaga torched Virginia by 23, you wondered if the Hoos would contend in the ACC. They reeled off 7 straight wins. Then they lost by 14 at Virginia, and you thought maybe they aren’t even the best team from the state of Virginia in the ACC. They won 4 games in row. Then facing …

Duke-Carolina intensity plays on with or without rankings
Everyone knows by now Duke and North Carolina aren’t playing for an ACC title or No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament. They’re still clinging to hopes for an NCAA bid. But it doesn’t seem to impact the intensity of the game. It didn’t matter the first time around, even though much was made of …

Georgia Tech’s late season surge will end with a NCAA berth.
It’s over. The 10+ years of futility for Georgia Tech basketball will come to an end on Selection Sunday. After a hard fought 75-63 win over Wake Forest, Georgia Tech ends the regular season 15-8 (11-6). Even with a opening loss in the ACCT, Georgia Tech will be dancing and I don’t believe even an …

Who’s the year end leader for ACC Basketball Coach of the Year?
Like we did with College Football, where we periodically checked in on the ACC COY race we are going to the same with College Basketball. It should have been NC State’s Dave Doeren in the fall, but the ACC media didn’t agree. Will they agree this time? Who are the contenders? Leonard Hamilton – Florida State …
