The ACC Is All Over the Pro Bowl

Posted Dec 17, 2008
ACC fans, here’s something else to throw out out your insufferable SEC friends. The Pro Bowl rosters were announced today and of the 84 players named, 20 were from current ACC schools. That’s a whopping 23.8% of the rosters. Those numbers are impressive in their own right. Match them up against the other BCS conferences, and you’ve got even more reason to hold your head high today, ACC fan. (ACC Sports Journal)
