Duke just can’t seem to get back to where they were “consistently Top 10” it’s been more than a few years now. Va Tech and Louisville are what they are... very solid programs in a very tough conference... IDK what they should do, play some tough Out of conference games or follow ND and Duke and not challenge themselves out of conference.


Your post is truly uninformed . If the ACC is a 3 team conference then the big 10 is a 1 team conference and all other conferences are a zero team conference . Please tell us the teams that would do better than Duke , ND , UVA if they were in the ACC . Both Duke and ND gave UNC all they could handle and if you watched UVA vs Cuse or vs BC on Wednesday you would definitely say competitive . As far as Va Tech they have been hurt by COVID and injury this year but seem to have gotten it together at the end of the year . The final four could easily be an all ACC battle if the NCAA were to separate the teams but they will not as they want parity . If Louisville or Va tech were to make the tournament there are many teams from other conferences they would beat . The ACC is stacked this year and playing some of these teams 2x then again in the tournament is brutal .

Bla bla bla.... same song all the time.... if the queen had you know what she would be king.... this year the same as every year several teams are stronger than several ACC teams. When was the last time we saw an all ACC final four? Give it a rest already.

And yet you will not name any team because you are sadly uninformed . I will make it easy for you , what team other than NW would be competitive in the ACC . The reason you will not see an all ACC final four is because the NCAA committee will
have them play each other . You can be the dope who has no clue or give us some other teams , how did DBU do against ACC and they are the next best after NW other than ACC teams

I would say there are many teams that would be just as competitive in The ACC as ND, Duke, UVA, Va Tech, And Louisville. Just looked at 2016 - 2019... for ND, Duke, UVA and Syracuse here are their Non-Conference Losses:

Notre Dame - Northwestern 5x, USC 2x, High Point, Albany, Princeton, Towson, Cornell.

Duke - Northwestern 3x, Penn 2x, Stanford 2x, Penn State, High Point, USC, Elon, Georgetown.

UVA - Maryland 4x, Penn State 2x, Princeton 2x, Loyola 2x, JMU 2x, Elon , Navy, Hopkins.

Syracuse - Maryland 5x, Princeton 2x, Northwestern 2x, Florida 2x.

I will give Syracuse and Virginia credit because the do play competitive non-conference schedules but ND and Duke have become a bit of a joke with their non-conference schedules.

Plenty of Programs would be Just as competitive as 5 or 6 of the ACC teams on any given year.

Exactly. Even UNC has lost non-conference games in recent years to Maryland, Florida, James Madison, Navy. BC has lost to UMass, USC, Maryland, James Madison in past 5 seasons. ACC is usually strongest overall conference and may have 3 of the top 4 teams this year, but there are certainly other programs that would be competitive in the ACC. As for Covid impact and injuries mentioned by a previous poster - plenty of teams have faced the same setbacks but a few programs like VT are very vocal using it as an excuse.
