Depending on how this first version is accepted, I might do this few days to satisfy our off-season football cravings. Ok, there are three questions for each ACC team so everybody gets to answer trivia about their favorite ACC team.
This is an ACC version, but I'll add other conferences in as we go along.
Try to answer as many of these 27 questions as possible (take a wild guess if you don't know it). As we go along, I'll update the standings and see who can answer the most of the questions. I'll say if you can answer more than 20 of these, you know your ACC football.
If it's accepted, I'll turn this into a continuous contest, with a running total of points (1 pt will be given for each correct answer).
One more quick note...please don't look over everybody's answers until you've submitted yours and try not to look elsewhere for them. Try to go from memory on these.
Ok, let's get this thing started...
