Wa-Hoo-Wa, Baby!

I know it won't last, but man it was nice to wake up this morning and see this:

Atlantic Coast Conference TEAM CONF W-L Virginia 8-2 Boston College 7-2 North Carolina 6-2 Virginia Tech 6-3 Duke 5-4 Florida State 5-4 Clemson 4-5 Georgia Tech 4-6 Maryland 3-6 North Carolina State 3-6 Miami (FL) 2-7 Wake Forest 2-8

I love this line

And now, Virginia - yes, Virginia - stands atop the standings ahead of such powerhouses as Duke and North Carolina.

It's probably been since 1982/83 that we've been here this late in the season. I don't expect it to last, but I will enjoy it while it does.

Man, I would love to figure out how to get columns to line up.

Clemson's monumental collapse and victory giveaway says "you're welcome jackass."

Yeah, that was pretty awful, wasn't it? And based on what GT did to them last night it looks like they're still in a bit of a funk about it.

And the ACC has gotten too big. It's just wrong that you don't play every team home and away.

Dangit, I always forget that the strike-through tags don't work here.

I do miss all the ACC teams playing home&aways each yeah. But I'm from Clemson, so ACC basketball is typically of little concern to me.

Hehehe, I have no doubt your boys will go deeper in the tournament than mine, Lisa; we were picked to finish 8th in the conference before the year started, so this is way into the bonus round for me!
