A while back I ran across a site with an interesting premise for an alternative national championship for college football, what if the winner of the

09/10/2014 at 10:58 AM #55906WV WolfKeymasterThanks, the associated stats are stuff I do for my job all the time so it wasn’t that big a deal. Going through the schedules took a little work but it was kinda interesting to see how it all played out.
09/10/2014 at 10:59 AM #55907PackFamilyParticipantLol… this is all we got.
Interesting work, WVW
09/10/2014 at 12:11 PM #55914TheCOWDOGModeratorCool,WVW.
I want my replica!
09/10/2014 at 12:48 PM #55917PackerInRussiaParticipantI like it. I vote for this system. Better than BCS, better than playoffs. Nice work, too.
09/10/2014 at 1:15 PM #55923bill.onthebeachParticipantHey WVWolf!
Nice work…
How long would it take to crank one of those out for Basketball ?

Hard to believe as inept as we’ve been in football, we top the list of belt holders 🙂
09/10/2014 at 2:43 PM #55931packbackr04Participantthats awesome! nice work WVW.

09/12/2014 at 12:49 PM #56025SaccoVParticipantI have been contemplating a valid response to this and the only thing that has been in my head since reading the post is how would we compare 70s-80s wrestlers to the current ACC programs. Here is my stupid response:
Atlantic (The Crockett-in-Charlotte division)
FSU = Ric Flair (19-time world champion) They are the man, were the man, and perhaps might always be the man.
Clemson =
BC = Larry Zybyszko — Great in other regions long ago, but basically an over-glorified contender.
NC State = Black Jack Mulligan — 1979 was the last time this name meant much.
WF = Dusty Rhodes — There was a massive spot on Rhodes gut which galls me to this day. And he only won the title by technicality.
Louisville = Gene Anderson — Head twitch.
Syracuse = Angelo Mosca — Who?Coastal (The Crocketts-Move-to-Dallas division)
UN* = Tommy ‘Wildfire’ Rich — The girls might love him, but he never won when it counted.
Duke = Ricky ‘the Dragon’ Steamboat — Not a true top dog but one most will pull for. Only challenged for the title a few times.
Miami = Nikita Koloff — The Russian Sickle was deadly (Miami of the 80s) but his disappearance from earth mirrors Miami’s irrelevance in our conference.
Va Tech = Harley Race — Great champion of yesteryear, but almost faded into complete obscurity. Hopefully resurgent, Race almost died but regained to championship form (read his book if you get a chance).
UVa = Greg ‘the Hammer’ Valentine — Best known for his ability to look inebriated, the Hammer was a staple in the NWA but never much challenged for the title (USHWT doesn’t count.)
Pitt = Johnny Valentine — Most don’t realize how much of a powerhouse they were. Now a forgotten champion.
Ga Tech = Johnny Weaver — The sleeper hold is perhaps the worst finishing move in wrestling history (much like the triple option in CFB)Notre Dame = Haystacks Calhoun — Only good because he weighed 7 times what everyone else did (TV contract that no one else shares)!
09/12/2014 at 1:53 PM #56027SaccoVParticipantEdit: Clemson = Tully Blanchard — World Television Champion. Great on TV but never the Numero Uno!
