It's a great tradition going back to the glory days of State-Maryland with David Thompson and John Lucas.
So far, at least, the ACC has not planted its flag in Colorado or the Rockies. That leaves the Carolina Panthers as the closest thing to a regional favorite ACC fans have in this Sunday’s Super Bowl L. That’s 50 for the Roman numerically impaired.
Of course pulling for the Panthers might be a bit of a reach for someone living in, say, Syracuse, Louisville, or Miami. So much for that closeknit, family feeling the ACC once boasted set it apart.
