Good evening, Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) sports fans. I watch Virginia Tech and Louisville play today – and going into this game, I had the same feeling my buddy, @TalkinACCSports. Here’s what he said Twitter: Louisville isn’t playing well right now, and on the road against a confident Virginia Tech team? Looks like a …

It was a dark day for college basketball as details of the FBI probe on college basketball implicated mid-majors to blue blood basketball programs. You can read the full report from Yahoo sports.

This is going to be a weekly article, where I seed the ACC teams and where I think they’d should be placed if the tournament started the same day as my posting. In my ranking system, any RPI top (100) win is a good win and any RPI top (50) obviously worth more. Any losses …

Two top 15 teams, playing in a pivotal conference game in a major power 5 conference were at it today. Clemson and Duke should have had national TV coverage. Instead many college basketball fans trying to watch Clemson vs Duke were left without a way to see the game, or reduced to a streaming option …

Georgia Tech still has 5 games left on the season – 6 at the most. There will be no NCAA tournament, no NIT, no post-season. The Yellow Jackets have won one game since January 13 and at 11-16 (4-10) the team is just playing for pride. Effectively, the season is over and has been an …

Virginia Tech was on the NCAA bubble coming into their game tonight against the Virginia Cavaliers. At 17-7 (6-5), but lacking a top 30 win the Hokies needed a signature victory. They got one Saturday night by knocking off #2 ranked Virginia in Charlottsville no less. Gameday was there, and after Villanova went down to St. …

If you are a Virginia fan, don’t worry here. I’m not trying to make argument that anyone other Tony Bennett should be the ACC Coach of the Year. His record this season speaks for itself. The Hoos were the pre-season pick to finish 6th in the ACC, and were a fringe top 25 team at …

Notre Dame, Georgia Tech, Wake Forest, Pittsburgh for one reason or another have played their way off the bubble. I mean way off. Syracuse is poised to join …
