Georgia Tech’s Taquon Marshall had just thrown a pick 6. Virginia Tech took a 22-21 lead, and for the 4th time this year, the Yellow Jackets had lost a double digit 2nd half lead. I’ll be the first admit, the Georgia Tech fan in me said here we go again. I think most Georgia Tech …

FSU Opponent Preview: Clemson
What is usually hyped as the ACC match-up to decide the Conference is now, instead, just your usual fare in Conference play. Sort-of. Clemson is looking for a third straight appearance in the Atlantic Coast Conference Championship Game. Only one team stands in their way: a talented (but depleted) 3-5 Florida State squad. I don’t …

Ranking the Power 5 Football Conferences after Week 10 with Playoff Analysis
While the playoff committee doesn’t rank the power 5 conference, there is no way conference strength – which means OOC results doesn’t figure in to a committee members thought process. Let me point out on my philosophy on these rankings – your most recent OOC results count a lot, and you’ll see me reference …

FSU Opponent Preview: Syracuse
It amazes me that I even have to type this: FSU is 2-5 in November. Yikes. It’s been very difficult to bring myself to write opponent previews at this point, as I have little faith in my alma mater. What’s happening at FSU transcends just being a bad team: FSU has a culture problem, and …
