I'm excited for all these great traditional B1G/ACC matchups like Iowa/Notre Dame, Penn State/Pitt, and Miami/Nebraska (how did Miami end up with that one?).

In all seriousness, a great slate this year. I cringed a little when I saw Syracuse/IU. I think the top two games will be UNC/MSU & Michigan/Duke.

Hopefully 7 months is long enough for Crean to figure out the 'Cuse zone.

Hopefully 7 months is long enough for Crean to figure out the 'Cuse zone.

I rarely think it is wise to question Crean from an X's and O's standpoint, but he was completely clueless versus Syracuse. I'm sure he will have a better gameplan for their next meeting though.

Also, I always enjoy the ACC-Big Ten challenge. The ACC used to always crush the B1G, but that isn't necessarily the case any longer. With the ACC adding some heavyweights to their conference, the balance of power may shift back to the ACC though.

Yeah this year should go to ACC since the 3 worst ACC teams are left out.
