Boring assed tournament.  Not sure why the ACC doesn't partner with a real conference.  I'd love to see the ACC do this with the Big East each year.  THAT would be worth watching.  This shit gets so old, so boring.  Maybe two decent games in the entire schedule the next two nights.
 
1-0 ACC

Completely agree. The Big 10 just isn't that good of a conference. Maybe they have 1 or 2 good teams every year but for the most part their teams are very overrated. It would be a lot of fun to see the ACC do battle with the Big East every year. I don't see that happening though since I'm sure the ACC enjoys beating up the Big 10 every year. I don't think it would work out so well against the Big East

ACC owns the Big 10 and would probably urinate on the big east.  The Big East has crap at the bottom of their conference.

The Big 10 is bad and has been bad for a while now.
 
I would love to see the ACC pair up with the Big East.  I think that would go great along with the Big 12/Pac-10.

Anyone who thinks this is worth the ACC's time, please post the years that the Big Ten has actually won the Challenge. 
 
Can't?
 
OK, then please post the years that the Big Ten has come within a game of winning it.
 
Can't? 
 
Ok, please post the last time it still in doubt with a few games to go.
 
Can't?
 
Bottom line is that the ACC typically has so much better, NBA bound players that this thing just isn't fun to watch. 
 
Please make this the ACC/Big East Challenge.  Please.

Not saying the Big Ten won't have some solid Dance teams.  Not saying the Big ten does not have some great players becuase they do.
 
Just saying that top to bottom, NO ONE touches the ACC, 8 out of 10 years.

I disagree and unfortunately, tey play this tournament in November instead of say June or July when the Big Ten "gets rolling" with that exciting style of play.......48-44 games.

The Big Ten has some really really bad teams at the bottom of the conference.  I agree ACC will roll in this challenge again.  IU is going to stomp on georgia tech tomm though

The big east is so Big yet so bad. The most overrated conference out there.  They had to steal half of Cusa to even make it exciting. I like the big east, just speaking honestly

Answered what?  I think I have watched each of these that have been held.  I do not recall an exciting one or one that the Big Ten won outright.
 
I have been wrong before (twice ever) but enlighten me.

The worst match up in this challenge is always the first. Usually supposed to be the worst team in each conference matching up and WF just dominated Iowa going 1 of 15 from behind the arc.  Big ten may get victories from Indiana and MAYBE Michigan. I could also see Illinois beating Maryland but thats it. Most intriguing matchup is NC St. vs. Michigan St. and I think NC St. will win. ACC owns Big ten every year in this damn challenge.

Yes the ACC has won every year. You said that the challenge has never come down to the last game or few games. I simply just said that wasn't true.

This is like bringing the christians to the lions in the coliseum. The ACC should be playing the Big East or SEC. Big Ten has one or two good teams a year,after that there is complete slop in that conference!! I hope the ACC kicks the shit out of them.

ACC is a basketball conference and Big Ten specializes in football....However....Big Ten is always in the hunt for the national title in basketball...can the same be said about the ACC in football?

I would have rather seen an ACC/MAC  or ACC/A-10 challenge.

I wonder what is greater?...ACC basketball or SEC football? They both should join the pros in their respective sports. As far as I am concerned, the conference champion from each conference in their respective sports is the National Champion. All the other shitty conferences and shitty teams are just playing for 13th place every year behind all the teams from these two unreal conferences.

How are they the most overrated conference?? Year in and year out they show their dominance. The most overrated conference year in and out is the ACC. Every year you have some fool saying ACC is the best conference (even this year people are saying it and they might be the 4th best conference as they are having a down year).

And then you blame the Big East for grabbing up Conference USA teams?? Blame the ACC for screwing up the whole college conference scene. If they wanted Vatech and Miami fine but then they had to take BC which just screwed up the balance for the Big East for football (no longer considered a bcs conference) and the basketball conference. So they had to replace what was taken and they decided to go with a basketball super conference and wanted quality teams to replace the teams that were stolen.

Football bowl $$$ ruined the landscape of college basketball and football. Maybe people will start to realize that bowl $$ is ruining college football also.

If you were to take the top 12 basketball teams from the Big East they would take the ACC all day everyday.  The Big East has too much quality basketball depth and every team in the big east is ready to play against any style of play because in the Big East conference you see it all.
