In this really so difficult? On and on debate and after debate. Complicated computer algorithms that don’t seem to make any sense. In about 45 minutes I came up with my own computer rankings, that you could argue are as accurate as computer poll we use. It may even need a little tweaking, but remember …

The Good No Clemsoning in 2012 The inexplicable road loss won’t be happening for Clemson this year. This offense is putting up points like pinball machine, and is getting better and better each week. They are getting up early on opponents like tonight leading Duke 42-17 at the half before winning 56-20. Ok Easy prediction, …

Just a short post tonight after watching Miami’s 30-12 victory over Virginia Tech. Quick name a can’t playmaker on Virginia Tech’s team? Can’t name one? Neither can I. QB Logan Thomas has some raw ability, but is inconsistent at best. RB J.C Coleman has some speed, but is not a game changer. The Hokies stand at 4-5 …

A few days we put together a fantasy BCS that would put Florida State very close if not getting into the national title game. Now let’s look at the Clemson Tiger fantasy scenario… Am I talking about Clemson in the national title? No, way too many things have to happen to get Clemson from their 13th position …

The latest BCS scenarios have Florida State at 9. Now in all likelihood Florida State will end up in the Orange Bowl, but I’m calling this fantasy scenario but with a twist of realism, where FSU gets in the national title game. Chances are really slim I know that, but lets see what has to …

The Good Carry the Banner There are 2 good football teams in the ACC. Florida State (8-1, 4-1) and Clemson (7-1, 4-1) are so far way the best teams in the ACC it isn’t even close. Yes I know NC State tripped up FSU at home, but the Wolfpack have proven themselves incapable of taking …

I saw this discussion on my twitter timeline @TalkinACCSports since expansion which ACC division was the worst top to bottom? It seems the comparison was between the 2006 Atlantic and this year’s ACC Coastal. So I checked the the ACC year by year since expansion… This goes back to 2005 and frankly I’m not even sure it’s close. …

David Cutcliffe has done the impossible. David Cutcliffe has made Duke relevant. I don’t just meaning ACC relevant, I mean nationally relevant. CBSSportsline has a story on Duke football. Conner Vernon is appearing on ESPN’s CFBDaily. All because Duke is bowl eligible for the first time in 18 years and at 6-2 (3-1) and currently leading …

The Good Pandemonium in Durham! Duke is bowl eligible is after a 30-26 last second TD win over arch rival North Carolina. If you are a Duke fan it doesn’t get any better than that. David Cutcliffe is the clear front runner for ACC COY, for getting Duke eligible for the first time since 1994. …

Short entry for tonight. I’ll be back tomorrow… In the meantime this weekend we have some intriguing matchups in the ACC: FSU\Miami, Clemson\Virginia Tech, Maryland\NC State. and Duke\North Carolina. Frankly I give Miami virtually no chance to beat Florida State. The Canes have been somewhat of a surprise and it is a rivalry game, but the Noles …

Let the complaining and frustration begin, the first BCS Rankings of 2012 are out! Why is Florida ahead of Oregon? Why is Notre Dame is fifth after beating 3 teams that were ranked when they played? Mississippi St. is 12th without beating a team with a winning record? Just relax people… It’s the middle of October. …
