There were two coaching hires that probably would have been universally praised. Whoever lands Lane Kiffin if he leaves Ole Miss, and former Penn State coach James Franklin.

Podcast co-host @AllSportsDACC started talking about the ACC COY candidates on Twitter. That got me thinking, it’s time to list our candidates again. Amazing, we’ve reached mid-November of the college football season already. Who’s leading the ACC COY race? Let’s take a look. 1) Tony Elliot – Virginia Tony Elliot has turned Virginia into arguably the …

There was a nightmare scenario developing in the ACC. Duke at 5-4 (4-1) controlled their destiny to the ACC Title game. If they were to win it, the ACC could have been at risk at not getting a team to the playoff. Virginia saved the ACC from a disaster and enhanced their own chances of …

Haynes King is starting to put together a season that defies comprehension. Georgia Tech’s defense is one of the worst defensive units in America, and getting worse. They came into the game with Boston College ranked 98th in the country, 99th in rush defense, and 85th in pass defense. They gave up a whopping 537 …

A disturbing trend is developing for Louisville under Jeff Brohm. They can’t build on big wins. In 2023, Louisville beat #10 Notre Dame 33-20, then lost at 3-win Pittsburgh the next week. Recovered got to #10 in the country and lost their final 3 games. In 2024, Louisville beat #11 Clemson 33-21, then went to …

There is nothing better than beating your rival. Tuesday night, Louisville proved they are officially back after knocking off Kentucky and their $22 Million roster. Louisville deserves to be in the top 10, along with Duke and possibly UNC. ACC basketball may not quite be back, but the conference may be looking at double the …

The three biggest ACC football questions of the week. Here we go for Week 11. Is Notre Dame a big game for Pitt or not? Despite what Pat Narduzzi says publicly, this is a massive game for the Pittsburgh program. It would be the biggest win for Pitt since at least 2016 when the Panthers …

College Football fans outside the SEC have basically grown frustrated with ESPN. In particular, ESPN Gameday was becoming a point of frustration. It seemed to always be going to an SEC stadium or the occasional top 10 Big 10 matchup. Since the beginning of 2024, through October 25, 2024 there were 24 non-postseason Gamedays. 13 …

There was a lot of complaining in ACC circles about where many of the ACC teams ended up in the first CFP rankings. Other than Louisville, I found it hard to get too worked up, to be honest. A result Saturday underscored why the ACC and its teams and fans simply can’t complain. Duke 34 …

Last season, the ACC got just 4 teams into the NCAA tournament, and UNC’s inclusion was heavily criticized. The quality wins were few and far between, the ACC/SEC challenge was a disaster, and the maligned league’s metrics were awful. Duke appeared to be and was the only ACC team you could trust in March. It’s …
