This basketball season was a lot like the football season.

Obviously football team accomplished more, winning the ACC. But we beat up on the weak ACC in football, then face Texas in the playoffs and it wasn’t really close. This basketball season we beat up on the weak ACC, then get to the tournament and get embarrassed again.
With the way things are going with the talent difference in the leagues, the playoffs are what count, and we have shown that we don’t match up.
(Football has a chance of closing that gap, basketball never will).

Especially if we aren’t intentional about basketball. If we mail it in and keep status quo you have what you have with Brad. Nothings going to change.

"basketball never will"
That's why the Cult keeps telling us that our all-time losingest coach is the best we should ever expect. Actually, upper mediocre is BETTER than we should ever expect, so we should be happy and content.

If we could have stopped the run? The point is we couldn’t come close to stopping the run, and that’s why they had two rushers go over a hundred yards and had 4 rushing touchdowns. And it wasn’t a 2-3 score game most of the time. But view it how you want, that’s your opinion. Doesn’t change my original point.

but it didn’t change my point. Yes this was a much worse loss than the Texas loss.

Did you really try and compare playing Texas vs McNeese? Weak.

If we had lost to Florida, or Tennessee - maybe. But not McNeese.

McNeese is not Texas, but thats irrelevant.

The point is winning a bunch of games against the ACC this year in basketball was meaningless, we got to the postseason and found out the real talent level of this team did not match up.

Regarding the football team, we didn't find that out in the postseason. We found that out after week one against georgia.

In short. The ACC is the arguably the worst Power 4 program in all athletics I guess? I wouldn't argue against it. I'm ready for this conference to dissolve and burn.

We backed into the playoffs in football winning a very weak conference. But our basketball team was actually legit this year we just chocked🤷♂️
