I'm sure I am in the minority, but my list goes like this ...

We have had discussions on TheSabre about what accomplishments are most important. For me the list goes like this:

(1) National Title (duh)
(2) Final Four
(3) ACC Tournament Championship
(4) ACC Regular Season Championship
(5) Elite 8 Appearance
(6) Sweet 16 Appearance

To me, a championship is a championship - and I would say that reaching the Final Four is something that people count as a championship (like an appearance in the CWS). But getting that brass ring is why I value both ACC titles over an Elite 8 appearance.

I can quickly rattle off "1976, 2014, 2018" (UVa's 3 tournament title years) to anyone who will listen. :-) And Regular Season Titles are pretty special as well.

Again, good luck tonight. I hope you guys get your first championship - I have many Virginia Tech friends who are over the moon right now.
