Since 2010, the ACC has won 4 NCAA hoops titles and 3 football national championships. The ACC has won 15 hoops titles overall, so that means that since 2010, the ACC has won 27% of all hoops titles it has ever won.

Heck, the 2000s have been really good to ACC hoops: As of 2000, the ACC had won seven NCAA hoops titles, but has won 8 between 2001 - 2019. That means more than half of all ACC hoops national titles have been won this century. The ACC has already won more NCAA hoops titles in the 21st century than it did in the 61 years of NCAA hoops competition in the 20th century. Astonishingly, the ACC has won 8 basketball titles since the last time the B1G or PAC won it, and the Big 12 has won all of one title during that time. As of 2000, the PAC led all conferences with 15 hoops titles while the ACC had 7. The ACC has now tied the PAC at 15 for the most by any conference.

And with football, as recently as 2010, the ACC had won a total of four AP national football titles. The ACC has won 3 since then, meaning over 40% of all AP football titles have been won since 2010.

If you like national titles, this has been the best decade to be an ACC sports fan.

I am curious ...

How are you categorizing the 2013 title Louisville vacated?

- No title since it was vacated.
- A title becuase it was actually won on the court, but not an ACC title as U of L was not yet an ACC member.
- A retroactive title for the ACC since U of L is now in the ACC.
