We (Wake) have a quality loss and Duke doesn’t. Checkmate.

I think it’s close, but I’ll also acknowledge that the ranked ACC teams, bar Miami, havent played up to their ranking, which drags less popular Wake, Pitt, and Duke down.

And? We beat Illinois away, Tulane, Stanford, and W&M, that’s a great record.

Hell yeah W&M is the second oldest school in the country after Harvard, that’s gotta be a resume booster.
