Five Things I don’t like about the 2024 ACC Football Schedule
The 2024 ACC Football schedule was released a couple of weeks ago. As we do each year, we told you what like about the schedule, and now it’s what we don’t like. Louisville playing Pitt before Kentucky. While FSU, Georgia Tech, and Clemson either have light games or the previous Saturday off – Louisville has a …

What do Wake Forest and Pittsburgh ‘realistically’ need to do to get to NCAAs.
Saturday felt like a real separation day in the ACC. Virginia and Clemson joined UNC and Dule as NCAA locks barring unforeseen collapses with wins from FSU and Syracuse. A slew of middle-of-the-pack ACC teams fell away. Virginia Tech took a crippling loss at Notre Dame. Syracuse couldn’t get a much-needed quality win over Clemson. …

ACC Teams starting to leave no doubt about 5 NCAAs bids, and maybe 6
Actual observers of the ACC knew it. The ACC was never a 2 or 3-bid league. The reality didn’t match the hot takes or some of the bracketology nonsense. After Tuesday’s results, ACC teams are starting to take the decision-making out of the hands of bracketologists who’ve had trouble understanding what quality basketball looks like. …

If Clemson misses the NCAA tournament, that should be it for Brad Brownell.
In a game that should have solidified Clemson’s NCAA positioning, the Tigers came out flat, disinterested, and sloppy against Virginia. They rallied in the second half to give themselves a chance but ended up losing 66-65. Clemson is descending toward the bubble once again. This time if Clemson misses the NCAA tournament, I don’t think …
