Is it bad to be an ACC homer for schools not on Tobacco Road?

I'm not a "conference homer", but I certainly would pull for them over Texas Tech (although I love the way they play). After we win the College World Series that would give the ACC a sweep of the major sports with none from Tobacco Road ......sweet!

I have always thought of UVa as Tobacco Road ...albeit a little removed but none less frumpy and annoying .
Go Tech !

You are right Dug, but a different kind of frumpy. Nothing like the frumpiness of the Tarholes.

It’s certainly not great to be a #GoACC person at any time. I’ve got TTU +480 to win the title so I’m a Red Raider tonight

I have some friends that went to UVA, so I want them to be happy. I think TT wins though.

Pulling for Hoos, not as an ACC homer, but as a prospective

parent of a student. My daughter wants to go to UVA (Clemson does not have the program she wants).
FWIW, I was an Auburn lean in the semifinal...reasons to pull for both teams. I have zero connection to Texas Tech.

the Commonwealth, so I won't be totally mad if they win. I just like TT better. Plus, I usually root for underdogs.
Also, it starts at 9pm, so I likely will not stay up to watch the game. I don't care that much one way or the other.

You don’t pull for Satan just because he is in the Bible. I hate the rest of the ACC and don’t pull for any of them. The conference homers on here are the same ones that critze the SEC narrative of the coots. I will never forgive the rest of our conference for the extra year of probation they bestowed upon us.

Virginia is easily one of my least-hated ACC schools

They haven't been good enough at anything long enough to hate them, plus they just beat UofSuC 28-0 in the Belk Bowl. Oh, and Thomas Jefferson.

I’d like to see UVA win it. Not so much UVA but Tony Bennett. I think he’s a class guy.

Of course. It makes no sense to root against your conference.

I tend to follow the tournament until the last traditional ACC team is out, unless the last team remaining is the Heels. Then I don't bother to watch. SO go Cavaliers. (But note the lack of an exclamation point.)
