ACC Men's Golf Championship

Wake probably going to be outside the top 8 going into tomorrow. Top four teams are still on the course but are way ahead and then everyone except Wake and Clemson between 5th and 24th are finished. Wake is tied for 8th right now but are only on 13-15 as a team and will likely fall a few more shots (+13 for the day, on pace for around +17). That would put the Deacs in 12th, four shots out of advancing with one day to play.

IMO that should free the players up a little bit.
 
Let's hope so. You play golf in North Carolina in D-2? It was weird weather this year.

I'd feel like it would. 4 strokes outta moving on? Shit one player can swing that, everybody go put up numbers and you move through unless the other guys flat out play out their ass. Yes I do and yes it was. Played 3 tournaments where it snowed on us. Honest to god maybe had 2 rounds with good weather all spring. Felt like I was playing across the pond.
 
We were 13th after Day 1. C'mon HowBout, if you would have looked at the scores with more than a passing glance yesterday, you could have seen we weren't going to finish anywhere near 21 after the 1st round.

I saw T-21st, must have been before the round was over.

The point remains the same, this team was too talented to not qualify out of this regional.

Sure if they don't make it tomorrow we can talk about it. When you posted Wake had played something like 6 holes in a 54 hole tournament.

Wake finishes at +31 overall, two shots out of 8th and nine shots behind 5th. The +15 score today was sixth overall, behind the four teams ranked in front of the Deacs and then Northwestern who is 19th (Wake is 18th).
 
4-6 holes in and Wake still two shots back of 8th. The middle teams went off first, so potentially teams could move up and pass us, but we have the benefit of posting a number. It would help us a lot of we can just stand pat with the field and teams in front of us lose by a few shots.

Of teams through at least 4 holes, Wake is only behind Wisconsin on the day. We need to put up something like a 300 today IMO.
 
Wake now at +4 for the day, in 8th place. Ahead of everybody else in the same tee times. Wake has two people at even for the day. Great start today.
 
Starting the back side, Wake needs to make up five shots to get into the top 8. Clemson would then have to shoot something like +5 to knock anyone out of the top 8. Tough road for the Deacs and it was a really bad end of the front nine to drop Wake back.
 
one stroke behind Iowa State for 9th. Clemson is in 7th, but they haven't even started. They won't be a factor. Will probably get passed by more teams toward the end of our round, but keep an eye on TAMU, Iowa State, Wake, Wisconsin, Augusta, UC Davis. The top two of these will likely qualify.
 
Two shots out of a playoff now with Iowa State and TAMU. It's all going to come down to the next few holes unless Clemson shoots lights out. Everyone else who hasn't started has no shot.

Unless things drastically change it's three teams for one spot between 18th ranked Wake, 27th ranked Iowa State, and 36th ranked TAMU. Wisconsin and UC Davis have really shit the bed right now.
 
3 teams for 2 spots. Clemson ain't going to shoot anywhere close to 10 over in the afternoon. USC is the #1 team in the nation and they are 7 over on the front side.

Clemson probably finishes south of 60 over.

Falling apart. Will finish 9th likely. That first round did do us in. We flirted with 8th, but were always just on the outside looking in. Gotta come ready to play.
 
It seems that our scores balloon late in rounds often. Conditioning?
