Clemson blog RubbingtheRock is already preparing for the Tigers national semi-final game with Alabama by asking which offense is more potent. Florida State has a new football in Willie Taggart.

This is going to be a weekly article, where I seed the ACC teams and where I think they’d should be placed if the tournament started the same day as my posting. In my ranking system, any RPI top (100) win is a good win and any RPI top (50) obviously worth more. Any losses …

Oklahoma’s Baker Mayfield won the 2017 Heisman. He was a great choice. I’m not arguing that. Louisville’s Lamar Jackson was the 2016 winner and a finalist this year. Sometimes in losing you find out even more about more about an athlete. Louisville are and should still be very proud of Lamar Jackson. It’s been a …

What a season to remember for the ACC! Where many projected a down year, the ACC has proven definitively that they are the best Football Conference in the land (in the regular season). But, as many will recall last season, the Big 10 was projected as the best regular season Football Conference. Let’s prove them …

Well the last 24 hours in Raleigh have been a roller coaster to say the least. Tennessee came after Dave Doeren for it’s head coach opening. This caused a lot of unrest with the NC State fan base. The problems were somewhat of NC State’s own making. There were some issues with the contract negotiation …

We kind of slept Clemson the last few weeks haven’t we? There was a startling loss to Syracuse, and uneven games in wins against NC State and Florida State. Several players on Clemson’s defense were dealing with injuries, and that can catch up with you too. Just ask Alabama… Yet Clemson with the lone loss …

I didn’t get to watch much of the Louisville and Florida State games today, and as a rule I won’t comment much on a game I didn’t watch. That said Louisville and Florida State blowing out their rivals Kentucky and Florida deserves some blog time. Who better to comment on the games than their fans, …
