Bowl games head-to-head: ACC 4 SEC 1

Acts Enthusiast Posts: 1909 **1/10/17 9:22 am**

This year ACC teams won 4 of 5 bowl games against SEC opponents, including the National Championship game.

NC State 41
Vandy 17

Va Tech 35
Arkansas 24

LSU 29
Louisville 9

Ga Tech 33
Kentucky 18

Clemson 35
Alabama 31

Counting Alabama's 2 games, the SEC went 6-7 in bowls.

Counting Clemson's 2 games the ACC went 9-3 in bowls.

So much for the SEC being the better conference. The SEC might be better among the pollsters, but not on the field.

ACC is best.

No question this year.

Clemson beat a good team in Alabama - but almost lost to Troy. That is why college football is the greatest sport.

Things like that do happen...and for this season the ACC outperformed the SEC on the field. Dabo has done and amazing job at Clemson and deserves much credit.

Beating Vandy and Kentucky in football is really not very impressive, but it does count since they play in the SEC.

Beating Bama is impressive.

I don't have the stats (nor the desire to search for them) over the last 10, 15 or 20 years...but it would probably look about like the ACC/SEC head to head in basketball (only the opposite conference winning the majority).

ACC should be very pleased with the progress of their athletic programs, but claiming dominance in football may be a short lived thing. Don't get your hopes up too high.
