Another ACC team to the Sweet 16

And NCSU survives. Two of four ACC teams punch the ticket to the S16.

Not bad for such a crappy basketball conference.

Another ACC team to the Sweet 16

Two in the sweet 16. Let's get 2 more tommorow. With only 5 bids.

Only 4 really. UVA was a play-in game.

The funny part is that the UVA game counts as a unit. The championship game does not.

Okay, I am seeing lots of people on twitter say the ACC got 4 bids. Is this a thing and where did it come from?

Clemson needs to bring their A+ game. Baylor is good. But, the ACC could have four teams in the S16. Duke needs to just be Duke and play solid D.

I understand that. I don't understand saying the ACC got 4 bids instead of 5.

If you want to get to depressed, think about this. NC State has as many ACC tourney wins this year as we have had in the past eleven years and as many NCAA tourney wins this year as we have had in the past twenty years.

I just don’t see it as a bid when you have to win to get in. Both UVA and CSU were the same and each would have inherited a 10 seed had they won. It’s semantics though.

That counts. They were a10 seed. Last 4 in from non Low Majors get the 10 seed and play Tue/Wed. The ACC still gets the money for them playing a game in the NCAAT. For the Conference $6M spread over 6 years.

That is not how it works.

I'm not sure UNC is all that great outside of RJ Davis.

@nd Bacot.

 

[stinger78]

That is not how it works.

I get it. To me it’s kind of a push back against the system. You leave out Pitt and Wake, especially Pitt, and give us a play-in game? Nope.

 

[orientalnc]

So the ACC was weak this year meme is not playing well right now. We beat three of the four ACC teams remaining in the tournament and NC State finished 10th. Maybe instead of weak the conference was pretty well balanced.0

Calapare trying to save his job and recruit:
I saw an interview with Calipare sp? before their game. He blatantly used the time to give an ad for recruits. He said 70% of his players go to the NBA and 70% of those get renewed contracts. How great he develops them... I and the announcer were shocked. And they have not won a first round game i like 4 years. What a jerk

yeah, Clemson will need some breaks today to stay in the game. Baylor is final 4 quality. Turnovers, glass work is key.

He was all, "Ken-tucky players makin' 4 buh-billions dollahs in tha league, blah, blah, blah ..."

He literally said 'buh-billion' for anyone that missed it.

Maybe they shld donate some-a them buh-billions to get a new coach?

Buh-burn.
