There’s something going on at Virginia, that’s caught a lot us of by surprise. Virginia Cavalier football is legitimately pretty good. After a 28-14 win at Duke, you need to start paying attention to what Bronco Mendenhall is doing. Last week Virginia upset Miami. It was a big win for the Hoos, but upsets happen. …

NC State : A+ I would have liked to see the Wolfpack play West Virginia, but NC State has done everything that’s been asked of them to this point at 5-0. They play Saturday against Clemson for a chance to make a national splash. QB Ryan Finley is playing at an extremely high level. Dave …

With the ACC Coastal for the taking, Miami should have basically cruised though their schedule until a November date with Virginia Tech – at least if you believe pre-season rankings. Coming of a 10 win season that saw the Canes reach the top 5 at one point, 2018 was looked to be another step in …

Everything we’ve seen from Virginia Tech during the early part of the season was on display against Notre Dame. At times Virginia Tech looked sloppy, undisciplined, and athletically inferior to Notre Dame.
