15-3 OOC

[nolehusker]

3 losses is better than 2 losses? Sheesh.

3 losses to 3 AQ teams (Tenn, K State and Stanford) by a mediocre team and a 2 crappy teams is better than 2 losses to 1 AQ (Arizona) and 1 non-AQ teams (Rice) to what was suppose to be one of your better teams and a crappy team. Also, the ACC has some more notable wins. The B1G has Miami and Iowa. Nothing to really brag about. The ACC has UConn, Auburn, Penn St. Yeah, I wouldn't really call it better, but about the same level.

Take your moral victory ACC sheesh. Same result coming up in the post-season. Virginia Tech is the only reason the ACC has 2 wins. They were involved in both games....

translation:

"yes the SEC is overhyped year in and year out, and with the exception of 1 to 2 top teams, the rest of the conference really isnt any better than any of the other major conferences out there."

I think the bolded speaks for itself; the ACC has exactly 50% OOC games against FCS and non-AQ teams, the SEC has 73.2% OOC games against FCS and non-AQ teams.

 

[Ballboy534]

The ACC is currently 4-3 against AQ teams with wins over Auburn, Penn State, Connecticutt, and Temple.

The SEC is currently 3-2 against AQ teams with wins over Michigan, NC State, and Washington.

 

[757Hokie83]

 

[Ballboy534]

The ACC is currently 11-0 against FCS and non-AQ teams.

The SEC is currently 12-1 against FCS and non-AQ teams with a loss to University of Louisiana-Monroe.

Continue your circle jerk session if you please. I'll take the national titles along with the BCS wins.

"i already said you guise are right, and the SEC is continually undeservedly over-hyped year in and year out. Take away our 1 or 2 top teams, and the SEC is nothing special, are you happy now? is this what you wanted? now leave me alone"

^LOL

You claimed the SEC had a better OOC schedule than the ACC. I simply provided facts to refute your statement. Let's try to behave like adults and hold rational conversations next time, 'k champ?

We'll know more about the ACC by seasons end......still have several key OOC games:
VT-Cincy, UNC-Louisville, FSU-USF, UVA-TCU, BC-NW, GT-BYU, Miami-ND, GT-UGA, Clemson-S.Carolina, FSU-UF, Wake-Vandy. Maryland got by Temple, but they should easily be the ACC's worst team.

Don't forget about the La Tech/UVa matchup. La Tech may not be from a AQ conference, but they won't be a pushover.
