If a game ever showed where Dabo Swinney’s post-dynasty hires are and what he should do, the Texas vs Clemson game did it. Clemson has been trying to get back to their 2015-2020 level and had to replace lead offensive coaches Jeff Scott and Tony Elliot. On defense, he had to find a replacement for …

Duke, you’re exempt from this discussion. The Blue Devils beat arguably the best team in the country in Auburn and despite a couple of hiccups earlier in the season are a legit National Title and Final 4 threat. Pittsburgh has wins over West Virginia, LSU, and Ohio State but the 33-point loss at Mississppi State …

The ACC has always had an exposure problem. When you are fighting for space in the news and television viewing cycle, it’s tough to break through the Big 10 and SEC wall. The obvious thing is to win.
