Toughest places to play in the ACC

I'm sorry, but GT is NOT the 6th toughest place to play in the ACC. It is a MUCH tougher place to play than this guy indicates.

The "ThrillerDome" is and has always been one of the toughest in the ACC. I put it in the top 3. Let's just look at the past season. Tech finished the year a medicre 16-15. HOWEVER, we finished 13-2 at home!!! That includes 6-2 in the conference at home. And some of these wins were not nail biters.

1/11.....NC State....win....85-61....24 point win
1/14.....FSU............win....81-74
1/29.....UNC...........win....88-68....20 point win
2/1.......UVA............win....80-60....20 point win
2/9.......Maryland....win....90-84
2/20.....WF.............loss....67-75
2/26.....Duke..........loss....58-77
3.8.......Clemson.....win....66-56...10 point win

Now you tell me we just play OK at home???? Give me a break putting NCST, WF and MD ahead of us!!!
