Accepting the 4th Bid From the ACC…
…congratulations to the Maryland Terrapins, who punched their dance ticket with a dramatic double-OT win over the Virginia Cavaliers (Jeff, think CBS liked their pick of “feature” ACC games a little better than ABC?). Thus, NC State is now assured of having a win against an NCAA tournament team. For those of you who didn’t see the game, it did rival the GT/Wake classic for ACC “Game of the Year.” UVA hit deep, contested three after three – first to send the game into overtime, then to continue it past the first extra period. Then, they were undone by a failure to hit uncontested, 15-foot free throws. Basketball is a funny game sometimes.
So, for those of you keeping count, the ACC has 4 definite NCAA teams (UNC, Wake, Duke, MD), and possibly as many as 7 (GT, Miami, the winner of the VT/NC State game). It’s up to the bubble-bound how many actually make it to the promised land.

Sunday morning Sportscenter – ESPN just called Maryland a “Strong Bubble Team” while showing they were #22 in the RPI and have played the 8th toughest schedule in the country.
I think BJD has nailed this one and the network is missing this one.
Additionally, the Terps have Clemson, Carolina, and @ VPI remaining. You have to assume that they will win the Clemson game and be clinched in the eyes of everyone at that point.
Some one tell me that your website is very good !I do think so!
