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 …

Good morning, Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) sports fans. Both @TalkinACCSports and I have been pretty high on Clemson this year (see Jeff’s ranking rankings here). They are not having any of those moments that Brad Brownell is known for, like losing to Towson (which was a legit team – but Clemson could never lose to …

Good evening Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) sports fans. I was seriously wondering if it was a misprint when I saw Pat Forde’s Sports Illustrated article dropping Sportsman of the Year (and it should be Sportsperson of the Year) for Deion Sanders. Like I was actually seriously wondering if Forde misspelled Coco Gauff’s name wrong when …

ACC Prescription has some ideas if you think FSU got the playoff snub (which of course they did) of how to stick it to the various potential responsible parties like ESPN. Tomahawknation talks about the dangerous precedent the College Football Playoff committee set with leaving FSU out of the playoffs. Clemson basketball is exceeding all …

We ask the three biggest ACC basketball questions for this week. Does Clemson lose their first game this week? Clemson has been the ACC’s most consistent and I would say best team. At 9-0, they will lose a game eventually. Will it be this week? They get a NCAA Tournament caliber opponent in Memphis on …

Welcome to Michigan State, President Kevin Guskiewciz. I’ve been told you have a high school and college journalist background. We have that in common, although upon further review I recognize your post-college career leaves me trailing your brain power like a nose tackle chasing a speedy tailback. The further review was I learned that prior …

I’ve tepidly defended Kenny Payne early this season as Louisville seemed improved. Well, it was hard not to be better than last year’s nightmarish historically awful season, where the Cardinals were the worst ACC basketball team of the last quarter century. So this year there were flashes of being a functional team. Against Texas, Louisville …

So how do these ACC Bowls look. Who do we think is going, and who end the season with some momentum or not? Boca Raton Bowl, Dec. 21 Syracuse vs. South Florida, 8 p.m. I think Syracuse physically overwhelms South Florida with their run game. Syracuse 24 South Florida 17 Gasparilla Bowl, Dec. 22 Georgia …
