Good afternoon, Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) sports fans. Just a quick rant. This is really terrible: .@TalkinACCSports and I loathe the shot gun, short yardage, run by the QB or RB because everyone on both sidelines, the spectators and officials in the building, and the viewers at home know exactly what is coming. I’m …

We all make mistakes whether it’s an occasional brain fart (that’s mine) …

Good afternoon, Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) sports fans. I had a small discussion on Twitter this past Saturday about Virginia Tech’s quarterback room under Justin Fuente.

Good evening, Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) sports fans. I think it’s safe to say that many Virginia Tech alumni, fans, and friends of the university – and ACC sports fans will not see the Virginia Tech Notre Dame football game this Saturday night on the ACC Network. Why? Comcast is the largest cable provider in …

Is it dishonest to use Clemson in the title if I’m not actually eliminating them this week? I don’t think so. Clemson, after all, will be the focus of our discussion. As I’ll look at in more detail in the charts, there are a whole bunch of two-loss Power 5 teams I’m not eliminating yet. …

DURHAM – Duke’s rebuilding football program went into a victory formation to finish of Northwestern 30-23 Saturday night at Wallace Wade Stadium. Actually, three straight kneel-down snaps to expire the clock. That has been considered the most convincing sign yet that Duke can end a two-year bowl drought after a dismal 2-9 season. Duke led …

Good evening, Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) fans. I will be quick here – I know that Virginia Tech football isn’t going to change offensive coordinators – the more realistic option is to get some help with the offense. Therefore, it’s time to hire Bobby Wilder in that Jerry Kill role – football offensive quality …
