Is The ACC Overrated?

David Madurzak has a new college basketball blog (because God knows we need more) and has a nice post comparing the ACC to other major conferences this season. I have to say that I was pretty surprised by his numbers. From what he shows, the ACC has actually had a pretty phenomenal year. It doesn't seem like it's been so great because so many teams (Maryland, Virginia, Georgia Tech, NC State and Florida State) have underachieved.

The numbers don't lie though, and I think David was hoping they'd come out differently. The most interesting stat was that the bottom eight ACC teams have 5-4 record against non-conference Top-25 teams. Pretty impressive.

He also has a nice post about Boston College (which is even more accurate after their spanking last night) and a bunch of NCAA Tournament projection data.
