A few years back, I remember reading that the true ACC Champion is the winner of the ACC Tournament and there wasn’t an official “ACC Regular Season Champion”. I also heard “ACC Regular Season Champions” only started when some school wanted more goodies to hang from the rafters. I forgot what school…
So, who is the real/official ACC Championship? Season? Tourney?
I have my 2001 Duke BBall Championship poster framed in my office it states: ACC Regular Season Champions & ACC Tournament Champions…
Does the regular season champion get a trophy or do they just toss up a banner themselves b/c it’s not officially recognized?
If ya know… let me (us) know.
I guess I got use to winning both (reg season & tourney) in most years, so I never really thought about who owns the official title "ACC Champion".
