SEC/ACC Challenge 2025

[th2421]

Seeing if we can take 14 which would be a huge blowout for the SEC. I don't think a conference has ever taken 14 of 16 games in one of these challenges.

Yes! It was 7-7 in 2023 and SEC took it 10-6 last year.

Florida got us off to a bad start for the day. We are still up 6-2. As always go Lady Vol’s.

UNC giving TX a fight.
21-16 UNC leads after 1Q.

How bad is Pittsburgh, losing 75 to 28 at Mississippi State. SEC at worst should go 12 and 4 against the ACC. About as weak as I remember the ACC being.

A wacky game Louisville vs South Carolina. Really bad basketball.. missed layup after missed layup.
The pace has favored Louisville and I’m not sure they will hold on but they have outplayed South Carolina tonight so far.
I keep telling the fanatics some teams aren’t really what people think they are.. It’s a long season.

Well they were the first P4 team to ever lose to a Division III opponent…soooo pretty dang bad.

SEC leads 10 to 3 with 3 to go. LSU will be 11, think ND beats Ole Miss and Cal/Missouri is a toss up.

ACC looks to be way down overall. A lot of talent has transferred out of that league into the SEC and Big 12 in particular.

SEC 10-3. The South Carolina game was so close. Need the next 3 so we can be 13-3. As always go Lady Vol’s.

Duke finally looks like they have rejoined the living to start the game.

Me thinks they run out of steam quickly based on what we have seen so far though.

LSU is a funny team. Good thing they’re playing 3-5 Duke.

 

[vols90]

Don’t think LSU will be scoring 100 today so sick of hearing that. Yes, that’s a hard feat but look who they’ve played so far

Duke is a bad team man lol.. says a lot about LSU.

Two mid teams in this LSU vs Duke game… LSU ain’t no Top 5 team they can end that discussion now.

This how I know it’s fans on this forum posing as UT fans. Folks say this about Tennessee but tonight South Carolina and now LSU looking like middle school teams against average ACC teams and it’s silent on this forum!
The jokes write themselves! Duke and LSU both trash teams..

Man I wish Fournier would transfer to Tennessee next year. She’d be great with Edwards

I wish we had some loyal fans like Duke that support players on a 3-5 team no matter what…

So I’m not supporting our players by wanting someone who would compliment us and make us even better next year after we lose Barker, Spearman, and probably Cooper? Lol got it

LSU going to lose some games this season. If they think this is an impressive win better think again. Duke is one of the worst teams I’ve seen this season.

I agree, she’s being horribly mismanaged at Duke. Would love to see her in orange. Athletic and a very willing rim protector.

She would be great in our transition style offense.

Officiating so bad in WBB.

From what I have seen bouncing around and watching parts of the SEC/ACC Challenge, the refs are having a real problem with the new hand check rule. In each of the games this evening, they are allowing an awful lot of contact and are not calling fouls when a defensive player has both hands on the offensive player at the same time. Personally, when I read the new rule I thought it was going to cause a problem in the game to game application and, so far, it seems, at least to me, that I was correct.

Adding: In the LSU-Duke game, they are letting LSU get away with, in my opinion, some particularly hard contact, both with hands and body contact which knocks the Duke players off-stride. As I understand the rule, more contact is allowed than previously, but not contact that impedes the opposing player's movement.

Syracuse has been squirreling away the ACC money for years and not reinvesting in facilities and coaching at the same pace as many other ACC schools. Not sure the reasons or where the $ is directed, but they certainly have taken a less than ideal approach to athletic success than many of their ACC cohorts. If the cash is directed more towards academics and research than I would not argue there, but again I am not sure what they spend their ACC money on.

Ya Rooster1.... what is the matter with them? BC also woefully poor in athletic investment. They announced this past week a sizeable increase to football investment. It is as if both schools went to the bank with switchover to ACC 20 years ago.....

Gonna be interesting the future of this conference.... i do not blame Florida State and Clemson for wanting to escape

 

[vols90]

Well LSU turned it up in the 2nd quarter. 51 points at the half. They might hit 100 after all

Does it matter? South Florida scored 85 against Duke. Duke is 3-5 for a reason. LSU is overrated.
