Maybe one day Tech will give the ACC a team national championship.


Seeing South Carolina win baseball and women's basketball national titles gives me some hope. Mississippi State has gotten to the championship game in baseball and women's basketball. If schools like that can do, why not Tech? My only concern is the SEC is distancing itself from the ACC in sports revenue from their big TV contracts.

Then again, Coastal Carolina won the College World Series last year and Villanova won a men's basketball championship last season. Neither of those schools have SEC or even ACC money.

As for UNC, I picked them to win it all in October, so it wasn't a surprise to see them win it. I wanted Gonzaga to win last night because I love supporting an underdog and a program that does things right. Seeing Clemson defeat Alabama was delightful. It was good to see Clemson win a football championship for the ACC, Duke and UNC in men's basketball not so much for me. I think I would only support those 2 only if they were playing Kentucky.
