ACC in the afternoon

Winding down here in the ACC blog and gearing up for a late night watching Miami and Virginia, but before I go, I wanted to share with you two more links you might be interested in:

• ACC commissioner John Swofford talked about conference expansion with Scott Van Pelt, and about how it's been a tumultuous time for commissioners across the country. He also touched on the importance of keeping rivalries intact as the ACC moves ahead with scheduling in football and basketball, as well as a few other topics.
• Is Clemson staring down trouble in its final four games? ESPN Insider KC Joyner says yes, because "the Tigers look to be headed into a string of potential shootout games that could all serve as pitfalls." It starts this week, he writes, against Georgia Tech.
