    you could argue Duke being the top team in the ACC, G-Town is maybe the 4th or 5th best in the Big East. Not to mention the game is at Duke

        everytime an ACC team beats a Big East team somehow that team isn't in the top 5 in the Big East, no matter what happens you will never give ACC the credit

I understand what he is saying, even though I think they are for real, they have completely folded the last couple of years after starting undefeated.

          by the way, **** the phils
          ah, my bad. tpowell is a BE homer, we all know this and love him anyhow. he did this last yr and BE got whipped and pac10 did better it hink

          phils rule, toldja!

            ha ha, I knew I would get a response from that phil comment, ya, Powell will never give ACC credit no matter what happens, Gtown beats Cuse BIG and but they aren't a top team in the Big East even though Cuse are the second highest in the polls behind Pitt

              how many times does the acc need to whip the BE before we stop this conversation

              you can be a fan of the BE and acknowledge they are almost never as good as the acc

                    The ACC to me is a lil better than the BIG EAST!!

                    North Carolina, Wake Forest, Duke, and Clemson

                    is all I need to say

                      Ryan, what did the Pac 10 do last year? UCLA went to a Final 4 out of the WORST region in the HISTORY of college basketball. Also, G-Town is 3-2 in the Big East, do you really think that they are a top 4 Big East team?

                        it just seems to me no matter what the acc does, you will make excuses. duke raped gtown, gtown raped cuse

                        it just seems like if unc beat lville for instance, you would say its bc a guy had a bad game or was drunk the night before or somehting

                          well, the UNC/UL game was in North Carolina of all places. If you watched that game, you would have saw that UL def. had chances to win that game. A 9 point win isnt exactly raping a team and the fact that Duke is terrible away from home only adds to this. Remember what happened to the Dukies last year in crunch time? West Virginia "raped" them. Also, one game doesn't tell the whole story. Syracuse is a talented team but they are very inconsistent.

                            all i am saying is, no matter the evidence, i dont think you will be convinced. you did the same thing last yr and the BE fell fast in the tourney i think. but i may be wrong. doesnt matter to me. i rarely bet ncaa bball but i think every yr the acc is the best, hard to argue that

                              what did the ACC do last year? North Carolina went to the Final 4 but what about outside of them?

                                thats one more than any BE who went.

                                clearly unc and wake are better than any BE , by far
                                and duke may be also. we will see today if pitt is legit also
                                lville is a sweet 16 team at best, same as every yr

                                i have no biases here, i went to a d3 school , i dont care for any conference. im just stating facts as i see them man

                                  lol Sweet 16 team? UNC and Wake aren't locks to a Final 4 by ANY STRETCH of the imagination. Duke isn't even cloe to a lock for the Elite 8. Duke is the Sweet 16 team, not Louisville. Was Louisville a Sweet 16 team last year when they RAPED Oklahoma and Tennessee to get to the Elite 8? If UNC struggled inside against Wake, what do you think would happen against bigs like Thabeet, Blair, Samuels, Adrien, and Monroe?

                                    unc is still a top 4 team, i dont care what anyne says
                                    i didnt say duke was an elite 8, they never are
                                    i dont think lville is either, but hey , i could be wrong
                                    why is it important to you that coach k says the BE is better, i dont get it. what do you expect him to say?

                                      of course he's gonna say that but if you watch the games, you should be able to laugh and figure out how bitter he is

                                          when was the last time Duke went very far in March? They aren't as dominate anymore and he realizes that he is slowly losing it.

                                              I disagree with coach K, but it really isn't an outrageous statement. I think the Big East is better top to bottom.

                                                if lville loses today, and i think they will, then is the BE really that good? or is lville outside the top 15

                                                      lol why dont you understand that you dont go by head to head matchups? Also, the ACC's best faced middle of the pack Big East teams. Not to mention the fact that Duke was at home against G-Town and it's well documented that Harangody had pneumonia (sp) in Maui

                                                        maybe big east can snag some more teams from the c-usa

                                                        hey, why doesn't acc take Florida.

                                                          I'm pretty sure nobody wants any other tough basketball teams in the Big East. It's a mess now with all the great teams IMO

                                                              well with 16 teams, why would we want to add more? I think everybody is satisfied with the difficulty of the conference right now

                                                                    Very good point I think that Big East, ACC, Big 12, or Big 10 can all make cases that they are the better conference. They each have some tough teams that can beat strong opponents it is going to come down to which team shows up and gets the wins when it matters.
