March Madness in full swing!

Basketball action on Thursday was CRAAAAAZY.

In the ACC:

• Unranked Georgia Tech (worst team in the ACC) upset Number 18 Clemson
• Virginia Tech knocked off Miami
• Maryland defeated NC State
• Boston College knocked out Virginia

One of the biggest stories, if not THE biggest story - the Syracuse/UCONN game.

Syracuse survived the longest game in Big East history with the epic win over UConn. The game was the second-longest Division I game ever played!

We're talking about SIX overtimes people. Six!

In the end... Syracuse got the 127-117 victory over the Huskies.

Earlier West Virginia beat No. 2 Pittsburgh which means Syracuse will take on the Mountaineers.

Are you ready for some football?!?

Like I mentioned in the last post - the ACC released its team schedules for the '09 Season.

Big happenings already in play.

First - the Miami/FSU rivalry is coming back to Labor Day Monday, this year in Tallahassee.

The ACC Championship Game will be played on Dec. 5 in Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Fla. Can't wait until that thing moves to Charlotte!

Another big side note -- there are already six Thursday Night ESPN appearances slated for the ACC.

• NC State vs South Carolina on Sept. 3
  
• Clemson at Georgia Tech on Sept. 10
  
• Georgia Tech at Miami on Sept. 17
  
• Florida State at North Carolina on Oct. 22
  
• North Carolina at Virginia Tech on Oct. 29
  
• Virginia Tech at East Carolina on Nov. 5.

Notice GT, UNC and VT all have two Thursday night appearances. All of them, two weeks in a row...

I don't know how I feel about Thursday night games. As a spectator, I love them. When my team is playing, I hate them. Especially on a home game, when I could be there, but since its on Thursday, you can't because of work.
