ICYMI: 40 Years of Big 10 vs ACC
Here are a few tweets that you may have missed regarding the Big 10 and ACC:
ACC Fun Fact. Exclude Neb, PSU, Miami, and FSU. Clemson/Ga Tech have 1.5 national championships since 1975, OSU and Michigan: 1.5.

Yes, Clemson and Georgia Tech have as many national championships as Michigan and Ohio State in the past 40 years. Think about that.
And given that FSU has 3 national championships while a member of the ACC, that is a 4.5 to 1.5 edge for the ACC over the Big 10.

And that excludes the ACC’s best team–Florida State–who has 3 of their own.
And if you want to count current ACC/B1G members, Big 10 gets 4.5 for PSU/Nebraska (6 total). ACC gets 5 for Pitt/Miami (9.5) total.
#goacc
So the Big 10 was wise to go buy a few programs that have actually won a national championship or two. But the ACC’s additions of Pitt/Miami gets another 4.5 (did not realize split title for Miami). Errata! Errata! Anyway, that is still a 9-6 edge for the ACC.
Upon further review, do you still think the Big 10 is a better football conference than the ACC? If so, why?
And let’s not forget Notre Dame… ha ha ha.
Yes but the B1G has finished in the top 2 or 3 of the Athletic Directors Cup/Capital One Cup almost every year.

After today, you may be able to start comparing the B1G and The MAC. Sheesh!
Having said that, NC State is losing to Old Dominion…OLD DOMINION!
