Good evening, Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) sports fans. Both Miami and Virginia Tech had opportunities to solidify their position in the ACC Coastal Division today – and failed to get it done (or rather, North Carolina and Syracuse went out and got it done). First, let’s talk about North Carolina – Miami. Mitch Trubisky had …

Good evening, Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) sports fans. We’re going to step out of the ACC here – and give you a brief update on business as usual at Baylor University. I’ve made it painfully obvious what I think about the unfathomable lack of institutional control at Baylor University. Baylor University not only allowed unchecked …

Good evening, Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) fans. Let’s talk about Virginia Tech football – the Hokies have had a really good run since the Battle at Bristol (vs. Tennessee). As site owner and blogger, Jeffrey Fann (@TalkinACCSports) said, once the turnovers got fixed, the Hokies turned into a top 15 team. Let’s take a look at …

Greetings and good afternoon Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) fans. Kudos to Dave Doeren for the biggest win of his career at NC State. Yes, it’s not a good Notre Dame team – and this Irish team has a lot of flaws, but it’s a name brand victory – and one I didn’t expect that NC …

Good evening, Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) sports fans. @TalkinACCSports (Jeffrey Fann) and I will blog a lot this weekend about the ACC, but until then, we need to keep you up-to-date on Baylor and their football program. Why? Well, because this is a massive problem for the NCAA and the College Football Playoff Committee. Back …

Nick Weiler hits a 54-yard field goal with four seconds on the clock to secure North Carolina’s 1st road win in seven years over a …

Good evening, Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) sports fans. Hope you are enjoying this college football Saturday. We’re really close to season’s midpoint – and we have blogged much about the Miami Hurricanes football team, but they have quietly started out 4-0 in – and are now a top 15 program. Miami defeat Appalachian State earlier …

Good afternoon, Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) fans. Hope you’re enjoying another great week of ACC football. ACC football, of course, takes the center stage tonight when #3 Louisville visits #5 Clemson (it’s the third time this year that College GameDay has been in ACC country). Flying under the radar today is a Virginia team that …

Quick blog post for the evening here, Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) fans. David (Dave) Johnson, a real estate agent in my hometown of Mayville, ND, apparently had time of his life at the Ryder Cup. He heckled Henrik Stenson with the old, “You can’t make that putt!!” So, apparently, he gets called out by Stenson …

I hear there is another huge football game in the ACC this week. We better check on those ACC bloggers from Louisville and Clemson. What does Clemson blog RubbingtheRock have to say about Louisville in their scouting about the Cardinals. Louisville blog CardChronicle says Bobby Petrino isn’t going anywhere. You never know with Petrino, but …

If you have heard, lots of things are happening in Atlantic Coast Conference country. John Swofford and member institutions announced that the conference will relocate all neutral site championships for the 2016-17 academic year. That was not surprising as the ACC is basically following the NCAA’s lead. As such, we have a few recommendations for …

Good afternoon, Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) sports fans. Just a quick post here. The Virginia Tech Athletic Department just released men’s basketball home schedule (h/t @VTPromotions) and I have a few observations on that: Virginia Tech will welcome back Ace Custis as the University of Maryland at Eastern Shore pays a visit to Blacksburg (unfortunately, …
