2008 baseball super regionals set
2008-06-03 13:02:00
Florida State won. Georgia Tech didn’t. So, the super regionals are set and a quarter of the teams are from the ACC. Four of the six ACC teams that reached the NCAA Tournament won their regionals. Maybe this was expected, but the four teams that won all hosted regionals. The two that lost - Georgia Tech ...

Column and Commentary by The Evil Q jim@accnation.com Contrary to popular belief, I haven’t been in my hammock enjoying a cool one the past few Fridays.

Can ACC football ever be a national factor again?
2008-05-27 12:30:00
Story by Patrick Hite patrick@accnation.com In the not-too-distant past, ACC football was Florida State and the eight dwarfs. In an effort to upgrade, the ACC added Miami and Virginia Tech four years ago. The only problem with the move is that it hasn’t helped yet. In the past decade, the ACC has one win in a BCS bowl ...

The regular season is complete and the ACC Tournament begins Wednesday in Jacksonville.

Bye-bye Boise (hello D.C.?)
2008-05-15 20:47:00
Column by Patrick Hite patrick@accnation.com Most of the news coming out of the ACC’s spring meetings was expected — no 18-game schedule in basketball or 9-game schedule in football– but I thought the best news this week was that, after 2008, the ACC won’t be affiliated with the Humanitarian Bowl in Boise, Idaho. Despite what John Swofford said ...
Random thoughts from the outsider
2008-05-14 16:37:00
Column by Will Ojanen will@accnation.com Shortly after the recent NFL Draft, ESPN’s Todd McShay posted a first round mock draft for 2009. I know it’s a year early, but it’s always interesting to gauge who the so called draft experts really like coming in to the next season. Some players of note include Georgia Tech DE Michael Johnson, ...

ACC Nation baseball power poll ? May 12

After studying the ACC baseball standings for three minutes (it shows below) Sunday afternoon, I believe seven six of the eight spots have been claimed in the ACC Tournament.

Column by Patrick Hite patrick@accnation.com Poll: What format would you like to see? The ACC’s athletics directors will discuss a possible 18-game schedule for men’s basketball at next week’s spring meetings. So far, I’ve seen just one benefit from an 18-game schedule - the ACC can line its pocket a little more. With the additional games, it’s hard to ...

ACC baseball power poll ? April 28
2008-04-28 16:30:00
Virginia took the largest drop this week and, if I could have justified it, I would have dropped them farther. If it wasn’t for Clemson, UVa. would be the most disappointing team in the ACC this year. Sure, the Cavaliers have 32 wins overall and a winning record in the conference, but they haven’t won a ...

ACC tennis championships

The word is upset. First there was sixth-seed Florida State knocking off third-seed Miami. Then there’s stunning upset.

The nail-biting didn’t stop in the semifinals for Tiger fans as it took close to three and a half hours for Carol Salge ...
