[QUOTE="Root4GT, post: 1005536, member: 5618"] There are always upsets in the first 2 rounds. UNC as a 1 seed should not lose to a 16 or 9 seed. That would be a huge upset. Duke as a 4 seed beat 13 and 12 seed. Losing to either would be a huge upset. Clemson as a 6 seed beat an 11 seed. Good win as this is where upsets start regularly, still Clemson was a significantly better seed. Clemson's upset of 2 seed Baylor was one of the better wins in the second round. Excellent upset win. NCST beat a 6 seed, good upset win for sure. In their 2nd round game they beat a 14 seed. They were clearly the favored team. Good win but not unexpected. UVA was a 10 seed playing another 10 seed in a play in game. They lost, Coin flip game. The ACC has done well, however, the teams were properly seeded while Duke and NCST benefited from first round upsets knocking off a 5 seed that would have played Duke vice a 12 seed and a 3 seed that would have played NCST vice a 14 seed. That takes nothing away from the teams wining the games against the opponents they faced. Just don't make it sound like OMG look how great the ACC is. They are taking care of business as expected with 2 significant upsets out of 9 games. Beats the heck out of being the better seeded team who got upset! Now go UNC, Duke, Clemson and NCST. We are now in the territory where the ACC teams will need to pull off major upsets less UNC who is a 1 seed. [/QUOTE]
