Prediction: ACC will have at least one First Four team, maybe two
This article is written by college football writer @MattZemek, Editor at @TrojansWire . Do yourself a favor and give him a follow on twitter. The month of March is here, you might have noticed.

Clemson basketball belongs back in the Top 25.
Rankings pulled from http://warrennolan.com/basketball/2021/index There’s a basketball team in the ACC that is 15-5 (9-5) with a resume of wins that’s just about any team outside of Baylor, Gonzaga, and Michigan would be happy to have. They are also un-ranked and they shouldn’t be. It’s time to put Clemson back in the top 25, and …

Georgia Tech shows “maturity” in resume win over Virginia Tech
After the gut-wrenching loss to Clemson, Georgia Tech sat 9-8 (6-6) with the season teetering on total collapse. The Jackets needed a 5-1 finish to get them to 14-9 (11-7). That’s the target record, I’ve feel the Jackets need to get into the Big Dance. Three games later after a hard fought win over Pitt, …

Boeheim spared Cameron Crazies but not a loss at Duke
Oh, how the Cameron Crazies would have let Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim have it. COVID-19 fan restrictions not only offered respite from Boeheim coaching to counter Duke fans, he also was spared 40 minutes of vocal chants. Never mind that some of the Crazies may have been among those on social media criticizing Jalen Johnson …

Where is NC State Athletics at?
NC State is at a crossroads. And I am not talking about the basketball season. While the basketball season has been up and down, I am talking about a much grander scale. To be honest, it is a much grander problem. NC State has an identity crisis on its hands. NC State’s athletic department does …

Hurt comparisons from Bennett and Bilas take flight; Heels empty bench
It’s late February. That means Duke and North Carolina should be peaking for the final stretch leading to the post-season. Except this year it’s about playing their best basketball to earn a bid – not at a No. 1 seed. Duke (10-8, 8-6 ACC) celebrated like it had won an ACC Tournament or NCAA regional …

After Miami win, Georgia Tech has a path to NCAA tournament.
After losing to Clemson in crushing last second fashion last Friday, Georgia Tech had a couple of winnable but dangerous games with Pittsburgh and Miami. Boston College was going to be a win, but was post-poned anyways. The Jackets beat Pittsburgh last Sunday. Saturday was a tricky game against an undermanned Miami team, that still …

Coach K is coaxing like he’s a young Army coach
Duke basketball players often say they came to Durham to play for the best coach in America. Mike Krzyzewski sometimes makes it look easy, rotating one McDonald’s All-American player into the lineup after another on their way to the NBA. The only difference between now, with Vernon Carey and Cassius Stanley’s one-and-done NBA draft picks …
