It was an ugly win for Virginia in a 16-9 mess of a game with Georgia Tech. If you’re Virginia though only one thing matters. That’s the game summary in one tweet. A win is a win. — Danny Neckel (@DNeckel19) October 21, 2022 Virginia got their first ACC win of the season and showed …

Is Georgia Tech a Coastal Contender if they beat Virginia? Georgia Tech already has a win at Pittsburgh and defeated Duke. What if they beat Virginia on Thursday to get to 4-3 (3-1) in Coastal? Can they be considered a true contender for the division? I think you have to say yes. North Carolina is …

North Carolina (6-1) – A Say what you want about UNC. They are lucky, they have no defense, etc etc. The fact is they are 6-1 and nobody expected them to be at this point. Drake Maye has been outstanding at QB, and Josh Downs is the best WR in the conference. Last year they …

The Eliminator is running into a bit of a problem. We still have a fair list of contenders–29 teams remaining, and a dozen of the most serious contenders–but those serious contenders are somewhat concentrated in a few divisions. We are on the verge of seeing chaos come about if we get one–let alone two–upsets in …

Clemson beat Florida State 34-28 in a not as close as the score indicated game. At no point during the 2nd half did it feel like FSU could actually the win game except for a moment during the onsides kick. Clemson went up 34-14, then cruised a little too early. That said the Tigers are …

Syracuse moved to 6-0 after their victory over NC State Saturday. It’s the program’s best start since 1987. How did Syracuse twitter react? Oh and Dino Babers is your mid-season ACC COY. Storm that field. https://t.co/ZkGgVRKXIb — Eric Reinhold (@eric_theorange) October 15, 2022 Will not even try to lie. This feels great. The Orange deserve …

Just a short post for tonight. We’ve reached the mid-point of the season and a couple of mid-season All-ACC teams have been released. Do you agree or disagree? Did you miss me & @aadelsonESPN handing out our midseason awards & all-ACC picks on today’s In Play? I’m not angry. Just disappointed. Anyway, here they are …

ACCPrescription looks at the ACC’s OOC results. They aren’t overwhelming so far, but in a change from the last few years they are respectable. Why does Clemson’s spread against Florida State keep shrinking asks RubbingtheRock? After back to back wins, Georgia Tech football is fun to watch again says FromtheRumbleSeat. BackingthePack tells us what …

ACC Team of the Week : NC State – for a 19-17 win over Florida State 14. Virginia (2-4) Last Week: 14 Virginia had a listless effort against a not very good Louisville team. Without a game this week, they’ll be last in these rankings next week too. 13. Virginia Tech (2-4) Last Week: 13 Virginia …

Will Syracuse prove they are for real against NC State? Syracuse has been pointing to the NC State game for weeks. NC State’s Devin Leary is banged up, and Syracuse is one of the ACC’s biggest surprises. Should the Orange win they might get to the fringe of the top 10 which would have been …

I have a great idea for the next head coach of Georgia Tech football: The guy who is currently coaching the Yellow Jackets. Let’s not try to overcomplicate this: Geoff Collins was a terrible football coach. He was incompetent. He couldn’t tie his shoelaces. He took over the special teams and the special teams were …

What are some of the surest signs a program is turning the corner? I think it’s still winning games when adversity hits the hardest is one of them. NC State definitely faced that adversity Saturday night. Down 17-3 and the half, Devin Leary getting knocked out of the game in the 2nd half, then FSU …

We have the most eliminations of any week so far this year, as we say goodbye to 15 teams’ Playoff chances after Week 6. Eliminations should slow as we remain at the top contenders, but it would not surprise me if we stagnate at a final 15 or so for most of November. Of course, …
