We are only 2 weeks into January, and already the NCAA bubble for ACC teams is shrinking. North Carolina and Duke will be in the NCAA tournament. Virginia is just about a lock. If the Cavaliers 14-2 start doesn’t convince you I’m not sure what will. They had Duke sweating in Thursday’s 61-58 loss in …

The college football season has been over for less than a week, and I’m finished with 2011 and ready to look at 2012. My top 25 will probably change once some rosters get settle, but right now let’s see if your team makes this early pre-season poll. We aren’t even going to worry about schedule, just pure team power rankings. 1. …

Did you think we forgot about our weekly Articles from around the ACC Blogosphere. No sir! We just took a little hiatus during the bowl season, but now lets see what our ACC Bloggers have going on. BackingthePack is doing something NC State bloggers haven’t done in a while, and that’s worry about the NCAA …

NCAA tournament selections are not for 2 months, but that doesn’t mean it’s not too early to start tracking the ACC teams on a week by week basis. Especially since as many 8 ACC teams have the ability to play their way into the 3rd, 4th and 5th position in the ACC Standings. The ACC …

Mercifully the ACC football season has come to end, and what a terrible end it was. The ACC finished the bowl season 2-6, and fell to 2-13 in BCS games after Virginia Tech was defeated by Michigan in the Sugar Bowl and Clemson was humiliated by West Virginia in the Orange Bowl . There are …

Contributing writer @HokieGuru is getting things started right with another of his now famous ACC roundtables.

There’s been an article I’ve been wanted to put together for a little while. Anyone that’s ever started a sports blog does so because they are passionate about sports. They have opinions and they want to share them. Hey I do to obviously. I think any writer out there ultimately wants people to read their …

I’m not a negative guy. I don’t like to write negative blog posts, but each ACC bowl game result seemed to get worse as the post season continued. Teams that lacked effort, questionable coaching decisions close losses, blowouts, on and on, but the bottom fell out Wednesday night in one spectacular meltdown by the Clemson Tigers …

When you’re Frank Beamer and Virginia Tech, the standards are different for you from the rest of the ACC. The Hokies have been the ACC’s top program since expansion. There is no debate about that… None. Again the Hokies won 10 or more games, and again the Hokies went to the ACC Title game. That’s …

It’s been a rough bowl season for the ACC… again. The conference is sitting at 2-4 in the bowl season, and as SouthernTimeGirlsandSports writes it’s now or never for the ACC. I can’t disagree. Florida State came through with a hard fought win over Notre Dame and NC State took care of business against Louisville, and …

Going to work a blog post here in a bit, but just want to provide a couple of links from the TheVictoryFormation.com and SCACCHoops.com that recognize some of best sites that follow the ACC, and provide a top 200 twitter accounts list for 2012. Many of these sites I read and quite a few of those on …

Some bowl losses are easier to swallow than others. For Virginia fans I think this is one of those times. A 43-24 loss to Auburn in the Chick Fil A Bowl is not how you want to end the season, but Virginia fans have a lot to feel good about. They also know exactly where …
