The three biggest ACC football questions of the week. Here we go for Week 13. Is SMU on upset alert at Virginia? SMU is riding high at 9-1 and ranked 13th in the country, but they better be ready for their game at Virginia. The Hoos are 5-5 and have plenty to play for themselves. …

We’ll start adding NET and RPI rankings once there are enough data points. 18. Georgia Tech (2-2) Last Week: N/A This wasn’t how Damon Stoudamire’s second season was supposed to start.

One of the biggest reasons the ACC’s national football perception has suffered the last 10-15 years is that rarely there is a second or third team that stays ranked in the top 15. Whether it was supposed to be FSU/Miami or Clemson/FSU or any number of other teams it has rarely happened that the ACC …

Some losses will frustrate a fanbase, and some losses are so incomprehensible they will be etched in your memory for the entire season. Last year Miami had the ACC’s signature chokejob moment against Georgia Tech. This year the honor may go to the Louisville Cardinals. This was a game, I sort of stopped paying attention …

Clemson’s record looks gaudy at 8-2 after a last-minute 24-20 win over Pitt. They likely will crack the top 20 now, but what do we make of Clemson after the victory? The Tigers have gotten taken to the woodshed by the two best teams they’ve played Georgia and Louisville, and feasted for 2 months on …

The three biggest ACC football questions of the week. Here we go for Week 12. Should SMU run up the score if they have the chance against Boston College? #14 SMU at 8-1 has a resume that compares favorably to teams in front of them. Do you know how to catch the attention of the …

Miami controlled their own destiny to the ACC Title game, the playoffs, and maybe even to have a Heisman Trophy winner. Georgia Tech looked like fairly easy pickings on Saturday. It wasn’t that Georgia Tech was a bad team, but they were one beat-up team. Multiple injuries to several key players, while the Canes looked …

Georgia Tech’s win over Miami was one of those wins, you don’t believe unless you watched it. The Jackets had to shuffle a limited quarterback, Haynes King, and a freshman quarterback, Anthony Philo. They lost their top running back, Jamal Haynes, early in the game. The defense had LB Kyle Efford playing hurt and a …

ACCPrescription has some background via UNC’s 247 site on the ACC’s lookin period. A prevailing school of thought within ACC circles is that ESPN will not only extend the media rights deal but also increase the current deal. We’ll see.
