Accidentally reposted the same article that HawkErrant posted. Follow his thread instead. :)

Whichever! It's all good!

Doncha love how the author even noted the tarred heels even needed "official" help to survive?

I actually posted something yesterday with all the stats from each conference in terms of number selected and number moving on to the SS but it never showed up. Vaunted ACC ended up with 11%, we ended up with 50% and I think both the Pac 12 (which was universally downplayed) and SEC had maybe 75% moving on to the SS. All we heard on Selection Sunday was how the ACC was clearly the best and toughest conference playing--apparently not.

...and some true believers saw a Duke vs. North Carolina final as automatic, lol. Yep, without some assistance from the zebras, the ACC came close to pulling an 0-fer!
