The ACC’s three biggest questions of week 14.
The three biggest ACC football questions of the week. Here we go for Week 14. Can Syracuse upset Miami? You bet they can. Syracuse QB Kyle McCord can light up defenses, and in the JMA Wireless Dome, I could easily see Syracuse putting up 30-40 points on Miami. On the other hand, Miami with QB …

We’ll start adding NET and RPI rankings once there are enough data points. 18. Georgia Tech (2-3) Last Week: 18 Cincinnati toyed with Georgia Tech for 40 minutes in Atlanta, as the Jackets showed no signs of moving off this last-place spot. This week is Charleston Southern and Central Arkansas. 17. Virginia Tech (3-2) Last …

If ACC doesn’t get multiple CFP bids, they can only blame themselves.
Last year a member of the ACC Florida State got hosed, jobbed, cheated whatever adjective you want to use out of a deserving playoff bid. They were a 13-0 P5 Champion that went 2-0 against the mighty SEC, and overcame a season-ending injury to QB Jordan Travis to win the ACC. I believe that and …

Did Miami’s defense turn the corner against Wake Forest?
Miami’s defense is ranked in the top 25, but I think we realized in the last couple of months it’s been a liability. With Heisman contender QB Cam Ward and a spectacular offense, the Hurricanes have mostly survived their defensive issues. Only Georgia Tech was able to finish off the Canes. What could the Canes …

Clemson may not control their playoff destiny, but it’s getting closer.
After Clemson lost to Louisville to fall 6-2, they were ranked 23rd in the college football playoff poll. Their at-large playoff hopes seemed cooked. A funny thing happened in the last month. Clemson started winning, and teams in front of them started losing. First, they took care of Virginia Tech 24-14, and they moved to …

Did we see the future of ACC quarterbacking with NC State vs Georgia Tech?
Just a quick post for tonight… Unless you were a fan of NC State vs Georgia Tech you many have found the first 53 minutes of a 16-14 slugfest kind of dull. Then it was a whirlwind of the future of quarterbacking in the ACC. Down 23-14 with under 7 minutes left in the game, …

The ACC’s three biggest questions of week 13.
The three biggest ACC football questions of the week. Here we go for Week 13. Is SMU on upset alert at Virginia? SMU is riding high at 9-1 and ranked 13th in the country, but they better be ready for their game at Virginia. The Hoos are 5-5 and have plenty to play for themselves. …

We’ll start adding NET and RPI rankings once there are enough data points. 18. Georgia Tech (2-2) Last Week: N/A This wasn’t how Damon Stoudamire’s second season was supposed to start. The Jackets already have two ugly home losses on their resume to North Florida and UGA. They get a really good Cincinnati team on …

After latest win SMU has been everything the ACC needed them to be.
One of the biggest reasons the ACC’s national football perception has suffered the last 10-15 years is that rarely there is a second or third team that stays ranked in the top 15. Whether it was supposed to be FSU/Miami or Clemson/FSU or any number of other teams it has rarely happened that the ACC …

Louisville may have had the ACC 2024’s signature choke job game.
Some losses will frustrate a fanbase, and some losses are so incomprehensible they will be etched in your memory for the entire season. Last year Miami had the ACC’s signature chokejob moment against Georgia Tech. This year the honor may go to the Louisville Cardinals. This was a game, I sort of stopped paying attention …

What do we make of Clemson after last minute win over Pittsburgh?
Clemson’s record looks gaudy at 8-2 after a last-minute 24-20 win over Pitt. They likely will crack the top 20 now, but what do we make of Clemson after the victory? The Tigers have gotten taken to the woodshed by the two best teams they’ve played Georgia and Louisville, and feasted for 2 months on …
