That's a brutal conference schedule. lt's possible that we go winless in conference play.

As excited as I am for football season, I'm equally depressed about basketball. Great matchups, but we're cheering for the Washington Generals at this point.

I predict 2 ACC wins.

Flip side I absolutely will be arranging for a fly up to watch Duke and/or Tarheels play at Haas with SCT Jr. and then a quick trip up to Ski tahoe. Think snow my fellow Bears. Think Snow.
