The SEC network

What a waste if the only thing they have to broadcast is the life of a ball sack. I rather watch paint dry!

I love the Spurrier-Duke 1989 ACC Championship myth
Aug 27, 2014, 8:56 PM
|

Duke was officially Co-Champs with UVA (both had 6-1 records)
However:
UVA went 10-3 and beat Duke 49-28 (Duke's only loss)
UVA's only ACC loss was to Clemson 34-20. Also lost to Notre Dame (in a Kick-Off Classic). UVA went to the Citrus Bowl, where the ACC Champ went during that era. Lost to Illinois 31-21.
Duke went 8-4 and went to the All-American Bowl in Birmingham (yeah) and got beat 49-21 by Texas Tech. Is THAT where a true ACC Champion goes? Heck No.
Clemson went 10-2, losing inexplicably to Duke and GT.
Beat WVU in the Gator Bowl 27-7.
Nice LEGEND you have created there, Probation Steve.

Duke and UVA co own the championship.
YOu hear about Duke winning it because it was Duke- and they weren't supposed to win conference titles- but they did.

ACC Champ, not ACC Co-Champ - you gotta claim every little straw you can to put on that plaque.
Chickens defending Duke accomplishments....tremendous.

Sorta like you coots plaster "1969 ACC Champions" in your stadium. You weren't supposed to win anything either, but a blind squirrel finds a nut once in awhile.

A ring for every finger on one hand! That's fantastic!
I wish we had five of those for us. I guess we will just
have to settle for a BCS win. Darn....

I'll give you a TU, Scooter, as you just made me literally lol. I'll have to google futility to see if the gamehens pop up. I've always thought that if you googled mediocrity a block c w/ a garbled mess of red feathers would be the first image. Quite appropriate for either word.....

I must have hit pretty close to the mark to get a response like that.
Unlike you coots, we don't need to ride the coattails of our conference. We get hardware on our own.

That was a great win versus a Major Harris led Mountaineer team. Danny's last game at Clemson and before we got hit with a year probation that June. I'll leave the Ken Hatfield discussion for a later day.

Supposedly, in a few years it will generate over 40 million a year to conference schools, which is a major reason for the ACC network to get on board quickly as well, the ACC will undoubtedly use the success of this network (over 90 million subscribers) to negotiate their deal. A ton of money to be made with these networks, almost hard to believe how much schools can make from these deals.
