What a sick joke. The ACC that is.

I am sure the conference made money off of the TV rights. There was no reason for either of the teams who played in this farce of a conference championship game should have taken it in the shorts for the rest of their sorry excuse of a conference.

If I read the article correctly FL. State didn't sell out anywhere close to their ticket allotment. Even though GA. Tech sucked I'm surprised Nole fans didn't buy tickets and go to the game in big numbers. The game wasn't played that far from Tallahassee and a championship was at stake.

And the result was a 21-15 game. Was it one of those "it wasn't as close as the score" kind of games or did the noles come that close to getting beat by a third-choice opponent?
