So the ACC has sucked the Big One this season... so sweet.. and really topped things off this weekend... wow...

5 wins and 8 losses. <-- edit, i had them 3-10 cuz i can't count.

Friday (0-1):
DePaul over Louisville.

Saturday (4-3):
Notre Dame over Kentucky.
Wake Forest over South Carolina Upstate.
UNC-Cheat over Elon.
Clemson over Drake.
Georgetown over Syracuse.
Saint Louis over Boston College.
LSU over Georgia Tech.

Sunday (1-4):
Miami over Fordham <--edit, Warren Nolan said opposite.
Monmouth over Pitt. <--edit, i originally wrote VT
South Carolina over Florida State.
Purdue over NC State.
Dayton over Virginia Tech.

This collapse is unbelievably bad. I'm not sure what to write here other than this is freakin awesome.

There are a number of errors in there...

As for this weekend, both the ACC and the SEC went 5-8. Pretty bad considering some of them were buy games.

not quite that bad- Miami beat Fordham.....

but when that's your 2nd best win for the weekend yikes. Might drive home just how bad of a weekend it was.

Avg NET dropped from 97.60 to 98.60 over the weekend. (BE after this weekend is at 67.80).

No, I think it's still very valid TBH. Almost all their top teams stubbed their toes.

ACC could very well be a 3-4 bid league which is sad considering how many teams are in that league. They are horrible this year.

only have 3 teams right now with fewer than 3 losses. Duke, Wake Forest, and UNC(who has 2 and plays UCLA this weekend).

So I was just looking at the NET conference ratings...... Has the OOC winning percentages...

ACC right now is 83-46 for a .6434 winning percentage
the AAC(k) right now is 66-37 for a .6408 winning percentage.

And it doesn't really feel like the AAC has had that great of an OOC.

(oh, for the record, the Pac 12 is 63-31 for a .6702 winning percentage.

ACC 98.60
P12 112.17

With the gap in winning percentage- something that could easily grow a bit- we could easily see the Pac 12 overtake the ACC for the 5th best conference.

Remember in 2013 when they were going to be the Supreconference? They would take Madison Square Garden from the Big East because "how could they not"? Credit the Big East presidents and our HOF Commish Val Ackerman for keeping he Big East at the top.

Boston College is currently in a dogfight with Albany of the America East.

The 2-7 Great Danes are up 49-43 at the under 8 timeout of the second half.

Also, i learned the ACC Network catchphrase*:
"Always Rising".

* please don't ever let the Big East have its own catchphrase.
