Man I wish we didn’t have to go on the road to Wiscy. But I do think the ACC pulls this one out regardless. No slight to the big ten just think the matchups favor ACC as far as home and away.
 
UM, MSU, and Iowa definitely win.

Indiana, Illinois, Rutgers, and Maryland definitely lose.

I’m thinking ACC wins 8-6 but hope I’m wrong.
Not so sure MSU is a definite. @ UL will be a toughie. Michigan is really good. But Carolina is a tough match-up.
 
Loads of fun looking games, too

Neb/Clemson
Virgina/Maryland
MSU/Lou
UNC/Michigan
Cuse/OSU

Good picks. I think Clemson beats Nebraska at home and Wisconsin beats NCSU at home. I agree with the rest.

Not very confident about a couple picks, because I don't know exactly how bad GT, NW, Ill, and ND are.

Why is everyone picking Duke(over Indiana)? I mean didn't you see----Gonzaga proved them to be human..... I mean...

Lol not talking just this year. Seems like the worst style to matchup with is their draw year in and out.
Yeah, I can understand where you're coming from here...how many times have you had to go to assembly Hall recently for this thing, is it 2 or 3 times?

I'm pretty confident on all those except unc/Mich, best game of the challenge.
 
Why does UNC get the worst matchup in these challenges?
I went back & looked at the 20 year history of this event. This is the 20th year.
UNC has 9 home games, 9 true road games & 2 neutral site games. Of their 20 Opponents, 15 of them were ranked in the AP poll.

Dook has played 9 home games, 7 true road games, 4 neutral site games. Of their 20 opponents, 13 were ranked in the AP poll. That could change to 14 if Indiana is ranked this week.

I think it's more by luck we get a bad draw. Whatever reason we get the team who can exploit our roster the most. I can see Michigan winning bc my Wolverines football team lost the big one. So then my Tarheels hoops team will lose to Michigan's hoops team as they seem to be the team of the athletic dept now.
 
I think we see a 7-7 tie this week.
