ACC outlasts SEC, B1G, Big 12, and the conference of champions

[CDu]

Not sure what Big Z meant as a "run". I am gonna infer that he meant a Final Four run, in which case you'd have to go back to 2016.

Isn't it 2010?

Assuming the original poster meant won ACC and national championship. Pretty sure 15 ACC national championship winners won 8 ACC tournament championships. By my count they did start out 6-1 though.

Yeah, it depends on what one defines as “a run” in the NCAAT. I would consider making the Elite 8 and being one possession from the Final Four to be making a run.

I would too actually. I just assume others feel like it's championship or bust.

Well, I think we can agree that those people are doofuses.

Shut down the thread.

This will be the 4th time Jim Larrañaga has taken Miami, FL to the sweet 16 and his 5th time taking a team to the sweet 16 overall. He took George Mason to the final four in 2005-2006. He’s 73 and still an excellent coach in the industry, which is even more impressive since he’s been able to navigate the NIL/transfer portal era with an elite eight appearance last year and at least a sweet 16 appearance this year. I think they will give Houston a good game this week in the regional semifinals.

He’s under contract at Miami, FL until the end of the 2025-2026 season when he’ll be 76.

He believes in guards. He has some good ones

Title of thread should be changed - or we need a new thread, cause Miami just took out, Indiana 85-69. Wong with 27. Houston next.

Go Miami! Represent!

I would love to see them take out Houston.

real question: how does Miami pulling this out impact our NET?

You have to go all the way back to… 2019.

Team still underachieved and won two tournament games b/c opponents missed put backs at the buzzard.

I've always hated the concept of rooting for ACC teams in the tournament just b/c they are in our conference b/c there are teams in the ACC I don't want to win but I have no issue rooting this Miami team.

Their coach is really good at getting the most out of his talent. I'd say the same about Hamilton at FSU.

I remember the old days when fans would chant "ACC!" when a team from the conference was beating an opponent from another conference in support of one of the ACC brethren. I ALWAYS pull for ACC teams not named UNC.

I sporked you for that video. Brilliant show.

Exactly. The only ACC teams I never cheered for are UNC and Maryland. Maryland is definitely lower on the hate scale but that fanbase was miserable in the late 90s and early 2000s. Screw those guys!
