    ACC-Big 10 challenge

    Yes Virginia there is an upset as the Cavs stun unbeaten Minnesota on the road and represent the ACC well in the opening game of the ACC-Big Ten Challenge. This is huge for this young squad. 87-79 the final.

    Good game. The Hoos where down 10 at the half. Thought for sure Minn. would win this one.

    Hoos have 6 freshmen that play. Look foward to see how these young men grow over the next few years.

    Re: ACC-Big 10 challenge

    my picks:

    #1 Duke (ACC)
    #2 Ohio State (B10)
    Wake Forest (ACC)
    #21 Illinois (B10)
    Northwestern (B10)
    Michigan (B10)
    Boston College (ACC)
    Wisconsin (B10)
    Purdue (B10)
    Maryland (ACC)

    that would make it 6-5 Big 10, but it could easily be 6-5 ACC or 7-4 Big 10

    Re: ACC-Big 10 challenge

    the only places where I really disagree are GT/Northwestern and Clemson/Michigan

    GT, despite their early struggles, match up really well with Northwestern...and if they're smart they'll use a lot of ball screens and attack off the bounce, they're just much more athletic than Northwestern

    Clemson and Michigan are similar in talent and athleticism but Clemson is a really tough place to win

    was wrong on both...GT is really having some troubles...if Hewitt keeps his job it'll be the dumbest decision ever

    Re: ACC-Big 10 challenge

    Tonight, Illinois beat North Carolina, Michigan beat Clemson, Ohio State defeated Florida, Northwestern won over Georgia Tech, and Wake beat Iowa.
    now its
    big 10=4 (osu, nw, um, ill)
    acc=2 (wake, virginia)

    well i think northwestern is again an improving team and will end the streak this year. they will build on last years solid season and make that next step, and gt lost their best player and the talent level has dipped dramatically. I felt pretty solid in that one. Hewitt is done, couple years too late IMO

    clemson/michigan was almost a pick em, and michigan is not playing with a new coach. clemson is replacing pernell and michigan is athletic, i saw it as a coin flip almost.
