I understand it was just 'one bid from a league' at that time,but did South Carolina win the ACC bid more than once? Never thought of them as 'whipping' anyone.
We were undefeated to win the 1970 ACC regular season title and won the 1971 ACC tournament. Had ACC player of the year in '69 and '70.
Although there is some debate about the ultimate reason why we left I've always been told we left in 1972 because of eligibility discrepancies. It certainly wasn't to get an at large bid and some people say that McGuire didn't want to leave the ACC.
The ACC did not appreciate Frank McGuire and South Carolina becoming a dominant force in the conference.

Regular season conference schedule. Tennessee won at Columbia in the season opener.
