I mean when the "best" team in the ACC loses to a "middle of the road" SEC team by 24, and really the score makes it sound closer because Clemson's only touchdown was a CJ Spiller kick return, thats bad. You add in the fact that the "second best" team lost to ECU, no offense to ECU they have a solid football team, but Virginia Tech should beat them every time. Heres how the rest of ACC ( Absolute #### Conference) faired.
North Carolina State loses by 34 to South Carolina- two middle of the road teams from each conference and looked what happened
Wake Forest beats Baylor by 28- Congrats you played Baylor
Miami beats Charelston Southern by 45- too bad your gonna lose by 45 when you play Florida next week
Georgia Tech beats Jacksonville State by 27- you better win this game
Virginia loses by 45 to USC- obviously your not supposed to win this one but you could of kept it under 28 points... oh just kidding
Maryland beats Deleware by 7... way too close against Deleware
North Carolina beats McNeese State by 8... way too close against McNeese
Duke beats James Madison by 24- conference champions anyone... just kidding
Boston College beats Kent State by 21- wow shocker (sarcasm)
In my opinion the MWC is probably as good as the ACC, maybe even C-USA. What happened to the ACC?
Texas Tech and Oklahoma have in common the fact that they both lost to teams from the Southland Conference. Now your probably saying those games were just flukes and that the SLC is a joke. Lets look at the past. 2006, Northwestern State beats Iowa in the first round of the NCAA tourny. A 14 over 3 upset. 2007 TAMU-CC almost upsets Wisconsin. This season(2007-2008) Sam Houston St. beat Texas Tech and is currentley 8-0 with wins over teams from more respected conference, like at Saint Louis from the A-10. Texas-Arlington is 8-0 with a key win at a solid Witchita St. team. Stephen F. Austin 7-1 with a victory at Oklahoma. The conference has a 59-38 record as of December 10th. Look I'm not saying that this is like the Big 12 or ACC but it should get a little respect for the quality of teams they put out on the floor. It would be nice to see maybe 2 or 3 teams from this conference go to the NCAA tournament. And maybe if only one goes don't make them a 15 or 16 seed and make them have to have to play a dominant team in the first round. This in my opinion is one of the better mid-major conference but yet they never get multiple teams in March Madness like the A-10 or Missouri Valley Conference.
