In case you missed the print edition, today's column looked at home-field advantage in the ACC.
Home, sweet home? Not quite, Tommy Lee, not in this state anyway.
Without repeating myself, I'll just post the numbers here from this season, since expansion and in the 2000s.
OK, I'll repeat one point: every school in the ACC won at least two-thirds of their home games in the 2000s except N.C. State, UNC, Wake and Duke.
