ACC Weekend Watch for Saturday 10/20/2012
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 …

ACC Week 7 awards: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.
The Good Plenty to play for… Even though North Carolina can’t play in the ACC Championship this year, don’t tell the Tar Heels there isn’t plenty to play for. The Heels went down to Miami and beat the Canes 18-14 to prove they are this year’s best team in the ACC Coastal Division. I’m looking …

Quick 2nd Half ACC Predictions
Florida State will not lose another ACC game I know alot of people are predicting the demise of the Seminoles after their inexplicable performance at NC State, but I think Florida State will learn from that.

ACC Week 6 awards: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.
The Good Shocker? maybe not… Remember when most people thought that if FSU had a trap game it would be at NC State? That was before NC State got ripped in Atlanta by Tennessee. We kind of forgot that NC State still had a very good QB in Mike Glennon, and in Raleigh can beat …
