BAMAHOKIE • 03/16/25 10:47 PM ET

The UNC that plays defense deserves to be in. -- OrlandoHokie Mar 17, 2025 at 11:13 AM ET

OrlandoHokie • 03/17/25 11:13 AM ET

Nope...but I will pull them against any SEC team** -- Tuckahokie Mar 17, 2025 at 08:54 AM ET

Tuckahokie • 03/17/25 08:54 AM ET

Disagree, UNC is a better squad than the last 5 SEC teams in the field -- soflahokie Mar 17, 2025 at 08:54 AM ET

Half the Big XII was like this last year -- hoosnowahokie Mar 17, 2025 at 01:29 PM ET

This was driven by TV execs. They understand the value of brands. -- Femoyer Hokie Mar 17, 2025 at 08:15 AM ET

I'd be upset IF it bumped-out VT, but getting another ACC -- VT757to276 Mar 17, 2025 at 08:22 AM ET

VT757to276 • 03/17/25 08:22 AM ET

Makes us relevant? Is that the thought?** -- JackDSML Mar 17, 2025 at 11:28 AM ET

IMO..Qualifying for the tourney is goal 1 -- VT757to276 Mar 17, 2025 at 11:36 AM ET

Agree. But they still might make the Sweet 16. -- KCHokie2 Mar 17, 2025 at 06:53 AM ET

KCHokie2 • 03/17/25 06:53 AM ET

Yes they do. It's Texas that doesn't belong. -- HokieAl Mar 16, 2025 at 10:55 PM ET

HokieAl • 03/16/25 10:55 PM ET

I don't think either belonged. Texas way worse than UNC, IMO. -- reestuart Mar 17, 2025 at 12:13 PM ET
