In the top 15, there are 7 FSU teams and 6 Tech teams, with a Terp and a Tiger mixed in. Actually, I'm surprised they added all of our great teams from way back when considering we weren't in the ACC then (and there wasn't even an ACC then).
No. 47 - You made your point...222 to be exact
Georgia Tech 222
1992 Duke
oh you meant FOOTBALL
1938 Duke. went all regular season undeafted, untied and UNSCORED upon. went to the Rose Bowl and was 40 seconds from completing the perfect season.
the best team any current ACC school has fielded:
1. 1917 Georgia Tech, 9-0
This team simply destroyed everything in its path allowing a mere 17 points on the season while the offense averaged 55 points per game. Tech allowed ten points to Davidson and seven to Auburn, but that was it pitching shutouts in the other seven games. Six of the wins came over teams that finished the season with winning records.

1938 Duke only allowed 7 the whole season, and that was 40 seconds left in the Rose Bowl
GT 6 > Duke 1
1917 Tech > 1938 Duke
Tech's Program > Duke's Program
Nuff' said.

They also faced easier competition.
