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 …

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, …

So, let’s talk briefly (I’ll get out of my #ACC hat and go homer here for a minute): 1.) There are some positives: Virginia Tech had more total yards on offense than Tennessee. The play calling was as good as I’ve seen in many years. The Hokies actually have an offensive system. 2.) It was …

Good morning, Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) sports fans. One Saturday to go!!!!!! Let’s get you caught up with some ACC news and notes: Appears that Thomas Sirk, the Duke senior starting QB, is likely out for the year (h/t @AP_Top25). That’s kind a crushing blow and it lowers my predicted records for the Blue Devils. FWIW, …
