Tiebreaker: 172

I find it interesting that GT is argueably the hottest, most inspired team in the ACC... and they're fighting for a post-season birth... and I'm the only one to pick them to beat Wake.

Figures.

Expect the black jerseys out for Tech.

Expect them to make it 8 of the last 10.

Expect me to be right.

gts, if it helps any, i just picked wake cause its shorter to type.

Random observation:

The overwhelming majority of non-Tech fans that pick Tech to beat wake is Maryland and NCSU fans.

<blockquote>quote:<hr />Originally posted by GoDeacsGR:
Hey Upper Deck Chevy, 203 is the total number of points scored in the 1974 ACC Championship game. NC STATE beat MARYLAND 103-100 in OT.<hr /></blockquote>Excellent job! It's also the most points scored in an ACC tournament final.

Since PoohTerp's 220 eclipsed that, I thought I'd remind her how the real record came to be <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" />

My 220 (as an example tiebreaker) was meant to be a nearly impossible number! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="eek.gif" />

You da man! You've called every game so far!

<blockquote>quote:<hr />Originally posted by Upper Deck Chevy:
WES:

So did I win??

I think there was 152 points in the final.

My tiebreaker answer was 163. Testiclees was 187 (or something in the 180s). And WES's was 201 (he shouldn't even be allowed to compete anymore).

So am I the winner??
