Didn't realize that DFL got us left out of the ACC-BIG Ten Challenge yet again.
Great to finally have a real coach.

WF tied with UNC and Pitt for last in the ACC. Since UNC has never missed out on an ACC/Big 10 Challenge, while Pitt (once since they joined the ACC in 2013) and WF (3 times since the Challenge started in 1999) have, if every conference school was treated impartially, it would've been UNC's turn to sit out the Challenge this year. However, they are UNC, and the Challenge is played because ESPN pays big money to the conference to televise the games, and they want UNC in the event. So, WF sits out. The 3 ACC schools to have played in every Challenge are: Duke, UNC and FSU. Among ACC schools, only Duke and UVA have more Challenge wins than WF's 12, and only Duke has a better winning percentage than WF (the Deacs are 12-6 .667).
This how little I cared about basketball last season, I had totally forgotten that UNC sucked so hard. Normally that is something I would cherish the memories of for quite some time.
Same. Seems like an eon ago.
Well, I was kidding in a way, but still it would not be a good look for us to lose that "tournament" on our home court against bottom barrel competition.
So should we not play it? Or play tourney teams and hope to win one? Play whomever and see what we have.
Was this the same game Manning called a T.O. with none left? All the precious memories run together for me.Or Manning losing to Delaware State within the first 8 or so games.
