Louisville and West Virginia finish 1st and 2nd in ACC!
And we could only do it on the ACC's down year and our best season ever! What a lucky coincidence! (I am actually jealous. I wish we were in the ACC but oh well, we have to live with what we have. The Big Least :( )

Editing the post, how weak. For the record, no one wants to be part of the ACC.

Enjoy your short lived arrogance. This year for the Big Least will be like 3 years ago for the MAC. They were way up, and the opponents they drew were way down.
You will soon return to being an afterthought in the BCS, don't worry. And techfan -- why in the world edit it to say they want in the ACC. We sure as hell don't want either program in the ACC. Both have deplorable academics, and WV fans are dangerously close to UGA fans in utter lack of civility. A shame we couldn't just lock all the doors to the Sugar Bowl two years ago.

If he would post smack talk in the smack forum, then there wouldn't be a problem. Trust me, I don't want their fans..I was just stating his true jealousy ;-) I'm kidding..and Wilkie will know that when he has sobered up ;-)

I wouldn't say both have deplorable academics. Half of the BEast all-academic team is composed of Mountaineers. The WVU School of Mines is one of the top programs in the world for mining engineering too. But then again, I wouldn't go to any ACC school to study English either.
It usually depends on what you want to study as to what school you should choose. The population from which you derive your student body plays another part. In a poor state, like West Virginia, there aren't as many opportunities for kids to really prepare for college like there are for many of the students of schools like Wake Forest or Georgia Tech.
WVU graduates are even now working for NASA on cutting edge space technologies, just like some GT grads. I can't say anything about Louisville, having never gone there. But I figure they have a person or two they can mention too. A self-educated genius will thrive in any environment, no matter how bad it is. Who's to say that the reason for such a high academic standing at WF or GT isn't due to genius? That was a rhetorical question, but we'll leave that debate for another time.

Conference all-academic team is strictly GPA. It does not factor into the equation how tough the University was. If anything, it rewards the schools with lower caliber curriculum.

Louisiana is the poorest state in the nation, FWIW. There are parts of GA, SC, and NC that are just as backwoods as the worst parts of Appalachia... and I know, as I have been through B.F.E. areas in GA, SC, NC, TN, and WV. The SC low country is just as bad as the eastern TN mountains is just as bad as most of the "great void" as I call it between the Triangle and Wilmington... etc etc.

Loserville is 17-35-1 against the ACC. The Big Least is 269-371-13 against the ACC. So much for history.

LOL Man, you are a great example of how NCAABBS doesn't discriminate. The fact that they allow someone as mentally challenged as you post is a credit to their lack of discrimination.
Who was the one who said that Louisville and the Big Least have a HISTORY of "kicking ACC butt"? You.
Who was wrong about said history? You.
Which Big Least team has a winning record against the ACC? NONE.
Maybe if every once and a while you'd check out the facts before you pop off at the mouth you'd stop coming off as such a fool.

Thank you, catdaddy.
Speaking of which,...I was in Clemson this weekend. I really like the renovations to Littlejohn.
