ACC Basketball Thread: Conference Games Start Today!

Clemson @ UNC to start it off at 6:00 on ESPN2
followed by
Syracuse @ Pitt at 8:00 on ESPN2

Its gonna be a long year for Clemson as the impending blowout loss to UNC tonight will indicate. Playing all their home games at a neutral site this year is going to make it tough for them to win more than a few ACC games.
Their first 10 games are:
at North Carolina
Florida State
at Syracuse
Louisville
Duke
Miami
at Virginia
Pittsburgh
at Florida State
at Wake Forest

So dont be surprised if they start 0-10.

Syracuse @ Pitt will be the much better game. Pitt is 10-1 but lost to the only team theyve played with a pulse (home vs Purdue) by double digits. Everyone was on Syracuse's nuts after beating UConn and Tamu back to back, but then they dropped 3/4 to big name programs like Wisconsin, Georgetown, and St Johns, who all suck this year.

Its been a crazy OOC season in college basketball, with predictability and consistency nearly non-existent. The first few weeks of ACC play should really shed some light on who actually is relevant.
