Following a 4-8 2016, there were a little rumblings that Duke football had peaked with the 2013-2015 seasons. During that time Duke averaged 9 wins a year. 2017 was a big year for the Blue Devils to prove they weren’t slipping. Duke needed to prove 2016 was just an aberration, and that the Blue Devils …

With Clemson reaching the college football playoffs for the 3rd year in a row, already hoisting up a national championship trophy, and pulling in another monster recruiting class you have to wonder is Clemson on the verge of becoming College Football’s next dynasty?

Nick Saban has forgotten more college football than I’ll ever know. He is the greatest coach of this generation. He is one of the best of all time, but he’s wrong about something. He’s wrong that the new early signing period is bad for college football. It might be bad for him. Coaching staffs are …

This is going to be a weekly article, where I seed the ACC teams and where I think they’d should be placed if the tournament started the same day as my posting. In my ranking system, any RPI top (100) win is a good win and any RPI top (50) obviously worth more. Any losses …

I’ll be doing my ACC Bubble Analysis in the next day or two, but according to ESPN the ACC getting 11 NCAA tournament teams would happen if the tournament were this week.

When we talk about successful and unsuccessful ACC athletic programs in the ACC in 2017, we don’t have to make it complicated. It’s football, and men’s basketball, maybe baseball and women’s basketball . 10 ACC football teams made a Bowl game. Georgia Tech, Pittsburgh, North Carolina, and Syracuse did not. North Carolina has a top …
