Monday night, I was disappointed after Georgia Tech blew a big lead against Tennessee, ending a pretty terrible weekend for the Atlantic Coast Conference, which went 0-3 against the South Eastern Conference on the weekend. Having attended the University of Virginia, I’m a big ACC fan and was hoping we would continue our upward trajectory in terms of being able to claim the crown of the most powerful college football conference after winning the National Championship in the previous season. Well, needless to say, I needed a little pick-me-up, and I got it in the form of the news that the rumored United Technologies (NYSE:UTX) acquisition of Rockwell Collins (NYSE:COL) had been officially announced.
