That’s a significant accomplishment for a conference that won only 2 from 2006-2012.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Those were the men’s basketball titles of UNC – 2009, and Duke -2010.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The ACC also leads all conferences with 6 title in these 4 sports. The SEC and AAC (led by UCONN women’s basketball with 4) are second with 5 national titles. The Big 10, Pac 12, and Big 12 have a together 2 national titles in this time, and none since 2014. One can argue the ACC is the biggest conference at 15 teams in these sports other football, but I will counter that with there are 36 teams in the Big 10, Pac 12, and Big 12 across 3 different regions and the ACC has 3 times as many titles as those 3 conferences combined. The Big 12 can’t be thrilled that the Big South has more titles than they do as well 1 – 0. Ouch!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This speaks to the balance of the conference across the major sports. If you are playing in the ACC you are competing at a nationally elite level. We wrote the last year about the ACC being in the <a href=\"http:\/\/allsportsdiscussion.com\/2017\/04\/10\/the-acc-is-in-the-midst-of-a-golden-age-for-its-major-sports\/\">middle of a golden age of their major sports.\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0This golden age certainly shows no signs of slowing down.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The number of teams appearing in national title games, without winning the title is noteworthy too.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Football<\/strong> – Clemson 2015<\/p>\n<p><strong>Men’s Basketball<\/strong> – UNC 2016<\/p>\n<p><strong>Women’s Basketball<\/strong> – Notre Dame 2014 and 2015, Syracuse 2016<\/p>\n<p><strong>Baseball<\/strong> –\u00a0 Virginia 2014<\/p>\n<p>That’s a national title participant in 12 of the last 22 national title games.
