The conference is not very good this year. There might be a whole lot of new coaches next year. Louisville, Duke and Clemson are safe but the rest of them idk🤷🏼
ACC
- Thread starter Mulder14
- Start date
And funny enough, this is why the league is so down right now. They've lost some very successful coaches in the last handful of years and the only replacement that's really done well so far is Scheyer.
ACC Conference? More like ASS Conference!
It's beyond terrible...so terrible it has dumbass
UL fans thinking they're title contenders lol

ACC is garbage, but UL fans (delusional) think they can beat most teams in SEC.
Tennessee, Kentucky, Oklahoma, and
Ole Miss say othwise.
Their record since conference started is only 50%. Karl Ravech.
How is UNC First Four Out? I thought they were Next Four Out last week.
Men's Bracketology: Beware the nonconference strength of schedule factor
BYU is currently the last team in, but history tells us the selection committee doesn't look too kindly upon a nonconference SOS ranking like that of the Cougars.

They beat mighty Pittsburgh
Because they have won 2 of their last 7 games. They are obviously trending in the right direction. 😂How is UNC First Four Out? I thought they were Next Four Out last week.

The ACC went 4-30 vs the SEC this year.
EVERY ACC team lost to at least 1 SEC team.
EVERY SEC team best at least 1 ACC team.
Even the worst SEC team, USC 0-11, beat the team tied w/UL (Clemson) for 2nd in ACC.
If in SEC, UL would be right there with Texas, Arkansas, Oklahoma.
Imagine playing California and Stanford this week like Duke has. Freaking cake walk to a 1 seed. No way should they be rewarded cause they beat a bunch of high school teams.
Wasn't this how it was for Kentucky in the SEC for the past 30 years up until like 2 years ago?
They have lost every coach basically. The longest tenured coach is Brad Brownell.
They have played 2 competitive teams in 2 months basically. One fairly close win at UofL and one loss at Clemson.
And we were often not seeded as high because of that!
But I would say the ACC this year is even worse than the SEC was most of the past 35 years.
Looking at the NET rankings of the 18 ACC teams:
- only 1 in the top 25
- just 5 in the top 50 (almost 4 since UNC is at #50)
- 10 are in the top 100 (barely over half, but almost 9 since ND is #99)
- 3 are outside the top 150
- 2 are outside the top 200
In comparison, looking at the other P5 Conferences:
- B12 (16 teams) only has 1 outside top 100 (#107)
- Big East (11 teams) only has 2 outside top 100 (#129, #223)
- B10 (18 teams) all are in top 100
- SEC (16 teams) all are in top 100
So out of the 79 P5 schools, the ACC has 4 of the 5 worst teams, 8 of the 11 worst teams.
I'm not sure the SEC was ever that bad.
I strongly believe that if Duke were in the SEC they would be right there with us, UT, Mizzou and Miss St in the middle of the pack.
The SEC was never close to being as bad as the ACC has now become. Not even close. The ACC is historically awful.
Florida, Arkansas, UT, SCAR, Miss St, Auburn have all had solid runs at different times over the past 30 years. Sometimes congruently, sometimes at different times.
No, the SEC was not ACC level good over the past 20 plus years, but the SEC was never this ACC level bad.
The conference is a joke and is nothing more then a midmajor conference. Duke has played one conference opponent, and let me repeat, one conference opponent, who is currently ranked. And they lost. Put Duke in the SEC and they would have 3-5 conference losses at this point. Without a question.
