ACC Big Ten Challenge

Time to get down to business and beat up on NDSU and then Virginia.

I am feeling pretty good about the Big Ten's chances on really doing well against the ACC this year. Virginia is coming off a 20 point loss to Stanford. It would be fun to see MSU beat Duke, and I think we are a much tougher conference this year down the line. I don't know who gets UNC but I hope they get waxed again by a big ten team.

They play Illinois at Illinois... And you may get that waxing

The BigTen should own this year.

I think the fact that most of the "close" matchups here are at ACC arenas is what keeps this close. Mich@Clemson, MSU@Duke, PU@VT, IU@BC. Penn State is not a good team (though they may surprise). This year, the Gophers and Wisconsin have the Big Ten's easiest matchups and are must-wins. If either of them go down, the Big Ten will go down with them.
