[QUOTE="Dman374, post: 1003190, member: 6785"] Stack the ACC top to bottom level to level, and use that context for last years record. I'm going to start with Florida State, the champion. They had a great win against the No. 5 team in the SEC last year. That's the context though, it's the 5th best team. Then they had a hard fought rivalry win against Florida, one of the worst teams in that conference last year. It's not "ACC vs SEC", it's which team beat which team. Would you claim a Vandy win equals the same as a win against the mutts? You wouldn't. So let's add the context.
