11 days ago I wrote a scenario where the North Carolina Tar Heels would make the playoffs. The loss to South Carolina holds UNC down like an anchor. I can’t disagree with it either. The Heels did lose to a team that finished the season 3-9, but if Michigan State can lose to a 5-7 …

Georgia Tech had such high hopes for 2015. They were coming off a top 10 season and ranked in the pre-season top 20. The expectations were through the roof in Atlanta, and then the injuries started. Each week a different player was going out. There were players that quit the team. 3rd stringers, former walkons, …

It’s ACC/SEC Rivalry week. Most years this is the ACC’s opportunity to gain a measure of respect against the SEC. This year has a totally different feel. Beating SEC teams is becoming common place. Just this year SEC teams have gone down to football heavy weights like Memphis, Toledo, Texas Tech, and Houston. This was …

It’s rivalry week in the ACC! So what do the ACC bloggers have to say about that and any other goings on? Florida State blog Tomahawknation says ahead of Florida State’s game with Florida that Sean Maguire may have some lingering back issues. I really like FSU in this one. The Gator’s offense is a …

We really aren’t any closer locking down those playoff spots are we? Let me point out on my philosophy on these rankings – you’re most recent OOC results count a lot, and you’ll see me reference that throughout the season. We’ll give each conference a relative strength value 1-10. Let me explain my relative rankings …

Each week I rank the Power 5 conferences and list my playoff teams, but I want to go in more detail on something that potentially could be a very tricky situation for the college football playoff committee. What are they going to do with Notre Dame if they beat Stanford to finish the season 11-1. …
