The ACC teams have combined for a record of 101-19, as of December 20th. The entire league is off to a great start with Clemson, North Carolina, Wake Forest, Florida State, and Duke already with 10 or more wins and 11 teams have seven wins are more.
There are some good conferences this year, but I think the ACC is ranked right up there with the best of them. Four teams are currently ranked in several polls. Leading the way is North Carolina, followed by Duke, Wake Forest, and Clemson. Two other teams that have received some votes are Florida State and Maryland.
What makes the ACC so good and exciting is the home court advantage. Teams can throw out their records when not on their home court. It is very hard to win on the road in the ACC. I think the ACC has the greatest fans and alumni support.

ACC Games Prediction (12/21/08)
unc5corners.blogspot.com 12/21/2008 — Three games on tap today in the ACC, including an in conference game involving a Top 25 team. With my record being 2 and3 so far in this conference and 7 and 5 overall (between the BE and the ACC), I want to make sure I get a good shot at getting these right to bring myself above the .500 mark.
Another week, another look at the mock drafts
unc5corners.blogspot.com 12/21/2008 — So, another week, another look at the four Tar Heels on the board of most mock drafts. There is once again movement, with some moving up and some moving down, overall I am still thinking that when all is said and done all four will be closer to the top picks than these mocks show.
