I don't know about that, I was thinking more that this may be the first time the ACC loses.

well unc and duke should both win....

VT winning last night would have been the best chance at the ACC getting a game up on the B10 and edging out a 5-4 win. But for some reason the decided to not press on the last possesion and let Wisconsin come right down the floor and take a barely contested shot from the free throw line.

ACC needs Maryland to win against Michigan and UVA to come through. Stop and think about that, it's going to be hard.

UVa will beat Minnesota

barely contested shot?? he was spun halfway around and had Malcolm Delaney in his face...VT pressed on the last second shot against Xavier and got burnt from half court...there's not much you can do about games like that

it'd be kinda hard to get a 5-4 win with 11 games

but it's 2-2 right now with Duke up and UVa down...but with guaranteed wins from Wake and FSU tomorrow, and probable wins from UNC and Georgia Tech, I'd say ACC wins 7-4

kyle singler was a beast tonight.

My bad I got confused on the number of games. I was thinking of DUKE's 9 wins and still the only undefeated team in the challenge. I'm still trying to figure out the 3/4 defense that only takes place in the last 1/4 of the court. How exactly does that one work letting a guy get all the way to the top of the key before anyone gets near him.
