I'm thinking that NC State/Michigan would've made for a pretty good bowl game.

I currently live in Michigan, and I get to go into work tomorrow and say "well, MY school won a bowl game this weekend".

Just looked at the rankings: Virginia *and* Virginia Tech are in the top 10

It's not an honor violation to mention Virginia and Virginia Tech in the same sentence as long as you mention Virginia first.

The rivalry goes back a ways.

If the Virginia men's basketball team were to avoid underperforming in the tournament and the football team could find a way to beat Tech, that would send a goodly portion of the Commonwealth into a state of bliss.
