Ehat does that mean? It looks like a lopsoded football score.

It is what happens when one school doesn't give a crap about basketball.

37-0: seasons and ACC football titles won by UNC
It's what happens when one school doesn't...

Seriously, I know for a fact that Clemson wants to win men's basketball AND UNC wants to win football, so...

UNC’s 59-0 all-time home record against Clemson, including a 28-0 mark in the Smith Center, is the longest home winning streak against a single opponent in NCAA history.

I guess when you don't come close to carrying your own weight in the primary sport one tends to put more emphasis on the secondary sports.

My condolences you were in the Corridor of Shame. At least you were on 26 and not 95 in that area though. Big upgrade.

Unfortunately I was heading north on I-95 and then picked up I-26. I actually hit traffic issues and jumped off the interstate and worked my way from I-95 to I-26. GPS projected I saved about 10 mins.

Is that supposed to be consecutive years with a bowl because in 1997, I thought Bama had been to 60 bowls.
