The ACC Thread...................................

Who would have thunk it going into the bowls?  Should FSU dispense with Northern Ill, then the ACC is going to come out with a winning bowl record.  Congrats to the Tech's and Clemson (another tech type school) for representing.  It is crushing me in Hawg's Bowl Pick contest though.  I had us winning one game.  So much for my prognostications, huh?

Gnat, I had GT and VT both losing. But there was no way I was going to pick against Clemson! I had picked Clemson even though I thought they would probably lose. 

The ACC is kicking some butt in Bowls this year! You guys deserve to be amped about it!!!

Thanks, mimic, one of the best SEC posters out there. 

I had forgotten about future ACCer Pitt. How could I?

GO PITT, whoop up on the that SECer Ole Miss!


I have to admit that after I saw NCSU just play pitifully against Vandy that I though our bowl season was going south in a hurry. I'm sure glad it didn't.

The ACC's Clemson finally shut the mouths of those pesky, tough, mean LSU guys. Finally. But what a game that was! Best of the season so far. 

I hate to root against Florida because I do like and admire them, mimic, but Louisville is a future ACCer...  

In case I forget, Happy 2013 ACC fans.  Maybe we are turning the corner?  UNC will be bowl eligible next year, so who knows.  Maybe...just maybe.

VT should have a new O line coach .... just maaaybe ....

These big bowl wins are going to help recruiting. Yes, the ACC is going to kick azz next year! 

Especially UNC! GO HEELS! The ACC is turning the corner, folks. LOOKOUT! 

Pitt can show up some weeks too . Ask VT , or Notre Dame .

Or West Virginia. Man, I still can't believe Pitt beat that undefeated team with Pat White. Wow. 

I'm going to miss the Backyard Brawl, it was one of my favorite games, a true rivalry if I have ever seen one.

Louisville will definitely miss Cincy (at least for the time being). And the Cards finally had Memphis going on schedule but that was not to be either. U of L/West Virginia had been building into a good one also. The BE rivalry games are all gone which is a real loss for CFB.

Agree, misterjimi, I will miss old time BE football, that is for sure. We had some memorable Gator Bowls, ACC vs. BE, all will be missed.

We should be getting Cinci in the ACC soon. Hopefully that will restore one of your old rivalries.  

misterjimi, I am hoping for just one more big bowl game upset. 

GO CARDS! 

Yeah, would love to see the  ACC have a better bowl winning percentage than the SEC.

We got to 4-2 (5-2 with Syracuse) with the big FSU win over overmatched NIU.

lol, we're counting Syracuse?  Ok!

So is CBS still going to try to convince themselves that the MAC is a stronger conference then the ACC in football this year???  ACC went 4-2 and in the four highest seeded machups went 4-0.  

Is it true BC is going to join the Catholic 7 since it essentially became a basketball only school once it bailed on the Big East?  Is the ACC doomed to the same fate of the Big East since it is esentially becoming the new Big East?  It still has football softies like Duke, Wake, UNC, BC and it is bending over for ND.

UNC is far from a "softie".  

Love it when people say such things when it's clear they're just pulling it out......
