ACC Basketball December 2023

Yeah, I imagine if we were doing something like that this year we’d all be pretty tense about the outcome. However, even if you have some horrible losses (Michigan State), it gives you an opportunity to get some good wins, and it puts you in the national picture. Good for the brand to be talked about as a major program. I don’t know, I’d love to play Kentucky, Arizona, Kansas et al. each year, just for some variability and exposure.

Its possible that UNC could get exposed tonight

Oregon still undermanned (constant theme for them last few years) but up 14-4 on syracuse early… (and they have had so many open looks too. It could easily be worse for cuse)

Louisville battles Pepperdine today. The last game they were favored in (as of last week, no idea if line changed)

edit: cuse came back

Dan Bonner calling the Louisville game. neither announcer at the game. Hated that yesterday. The crowd was muted (rewatched the 2nd half, was hoping the hyped JPJ would make it even more hype but it sounded duller because the audio was from the commentators)

Need to get Cory calling games from home. He’d have to correct the referees by text.

Exactly why I hate the guys in studio. It kills the atmosphere

This is the worst basketball game that Ive ever watched. And I was there in person for 48-38 Wisconsin 2013.

Cuse giving Oregon the business on a neutral floor. Wonder if that’ll help our NET tomorrow

My weekly ACC power poll, again based on results but also what I think the team really is and could still be:

  1. UVA
  2. Clemson

  4. Duke
  5. Miami

  7. Wake Forest
  8. PIttsburgh
  9. Virginia Tech
  10. Syracuse
  11. BC
  12. Georgia Tech
  13. FSU

You can still get Virginia as the ACC conference outright winner at +550 ($10 bet pays off $55).

Pretty sweet deal if you ask me.

Here’s the rest

Very sad. I think he was just diagnosed in March. Eric was always a great dude. Thankfully I saw him few years ago in JPJ as he was doing radio for UNC and back in Chapel Hill

RIP big man
