The significance of Miami’s 10-3 win over Texas A&M may not be fully realized for awhile, but it eventually could shape the future of college football. First and most obvious, the victory moves Miami to the quarterfinals of the CFP playoffs to face Ohio State on December 31. The defensive performance was one for the …

Dave Doeren seems to take a lot of criticism, but the reality is NC State has won 8 or 9 games 7 of the last 9 years. They pulled it off again after winning 4 of their last 5 games, including blowing out Memphis in the Gasparilla Bowl 31-7. How did NC State fans react …

The three biggest ACC football questions of the week, as we start up bowl season. Does NC State get its 8th win against Memphis? I really like NC State in this game. I know NC State’s defense is suspect, but this could be QB CJ Bailey’s last game at NC State, and I think he …

Even with all the opt-outs, transfers, lack of credibility, and arguably integrity to the college football post-season the games must go on. They still will be in the record books and for some coaches and programs, they are more important than others. Which three ACC football coaches need a bowl win the most? This is …

As Notre Dame went scorched earth on the ACC for their failure to make the playoffs, I wondered did the ACC really single out the Irish to such a degree that the response was warranted. What better way to find what the ACC really did than to scan the ACC’s football social media page. No …

So here we go, bowl season is upon us. We already have 3 teams opting out – Iowa State, Notre Dame, and Kansas State. I think we are nearing the end of the bowl format. They served their purpose for many years. They were fun, but I don’t see them staying with the current format …

Since the beginning of the CFP playoff rankings, Miami has been behind Notre Dame. At one point, they were 8 spots behind despite having the same record. That was in the week 10 playoff rankings. Miami, in the next 4 games, got better and returned to the form they showed early in the year. They …

For every argument you can make for Miami, Notre Dame, Alabama, and even BYU there is a previous result that should scare all 4 at large candidates and puts anything and everything on the table. What if a team won its conference championship game by double digits over a top 15 tm and was in …

7-5 Duke being in the ACC Championship Game has set off all kinds of alarm bells for the ACC. There’s no question it’s an absolute nightmare scenario for the conference. If Duke beats Virginia, there is a chance ( a pretty good one ) that the ACC would not have a team in the college …

When I saw Miami at 12 in the latest CFP poll, initially, I thought that’s not good for Miami. Then Notre Dame dropped a spot to 10. Oddly enough, Alabama moved up a spot after barely surviving 5 win Auburn. Nevermind, they have a loss to one of the ACC’s worst teams, Florida State. That’s …

One of the most embarrassing moments in ACC sports history is one game away from happening. A 7-5 Duke team that wins the ACC Championship would virtually assure that the ACC does not have a participant in the 12-team college football playoff. This doesn’t address that Miami should, in fact, should be an at large …
