Clemson, FSU, Georgia Tech, and Louisville all have good football teams, two of which have wins over SEC teams this bowl season. Definitely looks better than the B1G right now.

Tech not being a 10-win team? They still beat the snot out of USC. ETA: I said "good", not "great".

They aren't "good" either. Virginia Tech, North Carolina, Miami.. if you wanted to make your argument stronger, you would have used those teams.

They were 6-6 and bowl eligible then Miami happened so they were risking their bowl eligibility by playing the ACC CG so I guess they felt it would be unfair to them and they got a pass, which was surprising after the UCLA things last year.

no by the time Lville joins who knows, shite Strong might be gone and they could be back to their Krag days. The ACC just gets what their 3 BCS win and it had to be vs NIU and they finally had a good bowl season. Just last year their conference champ gave up 70.

OMG, you didn't even know the ACC existed until this bowl season until they were pitted against good SEC teams. You suck.
