Kansas also has losses to WVU, UCF

So are those teams the ACC teams beat good? Tough? Or bad because they lost to ACC teams? Are TCU & Baylor bad too??? Is Iowa St. They all lost to Clemson, Duke, VT respectively WHY are you feeding into the narrative of analytics over ON COURT results???

No one cared when ESPN let it's darling Big East get absorbed
WildTurkE • 01/30/24 10:14 AM ET
Big difference IMO.......

You don't think the ACC is
Pride_and_Joy • 01/30/24 06:00 PM ET
I would suggest......
2hhoop3 • 01/30/24 07:24 PM ET
You're certainly free to disagree, of course.
Pride_and_Joy • 01/30/24 08:05 PM ET
I have explained it to you.....
2hhoop3 • 01/30/24 08:17 PM ET
It’s a business decision based on viewership, ratings, appeal,
RJHokie • 01/30/24 08:14 PM ET
Very true. This board wasn't lamenting the demise of the Big East.
Pride_and_Joy • 01/30/24 11:03 AM ET
Statistically, 2nd worst ACC in 17+ years. Last year, 2023, was worst
catdaddy • 01/30/24 09:02 AM ET
On the court. ACC 8 - 3 vs B12

HokieAl • 01/30/24 09:52 AM ET
Very interesting.
Pride_and_Joy • 01/30/24 09:16 AM ET
There are enough numbers out there for everyone to argue their own way.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 01/30/24 09:57 AM ET
Being good seems like a pretty good way to be perceived as good.**
Pride_and_Joy • 01/30/24 09:59 AM ET
How many Final 4 teams did B12, SEC, B1G have last year? Zero.
hokiepro • 01/30/24 07:57 AM ET
And yet, there's been an ACC team in the Final 4 in 4 out of the last 6 &
HeisenBurg13 • 01/30/24 07:13 AM ET
And yet that's not proof in any way that the conference is strong. I guess
King of Hokies • 01/30/24 09:56 AM ET
Are you not a little surprised that
Pride_and_Joy • 01/30/24 07:15 AM ET
There is no question......
2hhoop3 • 01/30/24 09:59 AM ET
Totally agree with that!
Pride_and_Joy • 01/30/24 10:51 AM ET
Hoos have a special distinction with that difference **
TomTurkey • 01/30/24 04:20 PM ET
Well, they've had both. We've had neither. So there's that. **
Pride_and_Joy • 01/30/24 05:37 PM ET
And the trifecta of losing to a 16**
TomTurkey • 01/30/24 05:50 PM ET
I'd take it in a heart beat to have a natty.
Pride_and_Joy • 01/30/24 05:52 PM ET
Of course. **
TomTurkey • 01/30/24 05:55 PM ET
Not surprised at all. It is due to the lack of respect that the ACC

I think the conclusion they seemed to be reaching from the data was

VT Women's Hoops were #1 seed last year. Are they in the ACC?**

Will StewartAdmin • 01/30/24 07:57 AM ET
NOBODY is talking about ACC’s record vs B12
hokiepro • 01/30/24 07:58 AM ET
Just trying to understand, do you think the ACC is a better basektball
Pride_and_Joy • 01/30/24 09:32 AM ET
Not quite but they’re not far off
hokiepro • 01/30/24 11:00 AM ET
Head-to-head is one of many factors to consider
Pride_and_Joy • 01/30/24 11:12 AM ET
NET is garbage
hokiepro • 01/30/24 11:27 AM ET
You seem to be a bit inconsistent
Pride_and_Joy • 01/30/24 02:35 PM ET
If you can’t understand how skewed it is to say the conference that is 3-8
hokiepro • 01/30/24 02:51 PM ET
Nice job deflecting.
Pride_and_Joy • 01/30/24 03:12 PM ET
Ah yes where 5 of those 8 wins came against the bottom 6 of the B12,
HokieRat • 01/30/24 08:06 AM ET
Ok, show the B12 wins…
hokiepro • 01/30/24 11:05 AM ET
Lol to pretend like the 8 wins are against the top of the Big 12
HokieRat • 01/30/24 11:53 AM ET
Kansas also has losses to WVU, UCF ◄
hokiepro • 01/30/24 12:16 PM ET
It's mind boggling how bad some people's ability to reason is**
King of Hokies • 01/30/24 09:58 AM ET
Mine or his? Facts are below**
hokiepro • 01/30/24 11:02 AM ET
B12 wins vs ACC: 1 pt by Texas over UL, Cincy over GT
hokiepro • 01/30/24 08:24 AM ET
Pretty sure we are on the men's board, talking about *men's* basketball.
HeisenBurg13 • 01/30/24 07:50 AM ET
So the ESPN conspiracy towards the ACC is men's hoops only. Got it.
WildTurkE • 01/30/24 07:59 AM ET
That was my point it’s BOTH
hokiepro • 01/30/24 11:03 AM ET
Seriously? Get bent. We were talking about basketball, not football.
HeisenBurg13 • 01/30/24 08:09 AM ET
Such animus. We're just talking. I'm pointing out that the ACC's
WildTurkE • 01/30/24 08:23 AM ET
Only took you two snarky replies to get to some real points. Good stuff in
HeisenBurg13 • 01/30/24 11:17 AM ET
A team making the final four as less than a 1 seed
Pride_and_Joy • 01/30/24 07:30 AM ET
Respect can be earned.......
2hhoop3 • 01/30/24 09:44 AM ET
It may raise the question of their seeding but it doesn't
Pride_and_Joy • 01/30/24 09:47 AM ET
Maybe not definitively.......
2hhoop3 • 01/30/24 10:06 AM ET
I don't think what you're pointing out is a mis-seeding.
Pride_and_Joy • 01/30/24 11:01 AM ET
That is not.....
2hhoop3 • 01/30/24 11:43 AM ET
Good post as well.
Pride_and_Joy • 01/30/24 01:00 PM ET
Not at all. Your point is valid. And on a case by case basis, it isn't
HeisenBurg13 • 01/30/24 07:42 AM ET
UNC should remedy that for this year**
