This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Louisville was better. ACC has 5 of final 8: Seeds 2,3,4,9 & by Domerduck

unseeded Va Tech. Two ACC losses came when ACC teams played another ACC team (ND to Louisville, Syracuse to North Carolina). VIrginia lost in double OT tat 5th seeded Stanford, the only other Power conference to send a team to the final 8. They take on Louisville next. The other 2 schools not from the Power 5 are Providence from the Big East who plays NC next and Denver from Summit league who has Clemson in the quarters. The Big Ten was shut out despite having the #1 seed Maryland who Providence beat and #7 seed Indiana who Va Tech beat.

As for ND the season went downhill when we were #1 and lost at Louisville earlier in the year. That was their only regular season loss to the 5 teams they played of the final 8 as they beat 2 of them and tied 2 of them. Now the season ends at the same place it turned for us. from During the In the ACC tourney both teams lost to ACC tournament champ Wake Forest who is the highest seed remaining at #2. Va Tech gets them in the quarters.
