Atlanta had it. All they had to do was hold onto a 28-9 4th quarter lead, but they choked it all away in one the greatest sports meltdowns we’ve ever seen. The Falcons didn’t do it alone though. When you give the GOAT Tom Brady that many chances he’s going to cash in, and that’s …

The entire realignment era from 2010 to mid 2016 was driven by one thing – money. Where can my program be financially secure?

This is the poll that SEC Media Member Paul Finebaum put out to his twitter followers. Before I opened it I expected maybe a small delusional percentage, possibly 5% to actually say Alabama was better than Clemson even after the Tigers outscored 35-17, after spotting the Tide a 14-0 lead. To my shock – at …

Before we completely close the door on the 2016 football season, let’s hand out some grades for the ACC coaching efforts for the 2016 season. I have a feeling given the ACC’s fine football season, there’s going to be a lot of good grades handed out. Sometimes most of the class does well. Coastal Coaching …

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 …

I am an NC State fan. I will not hide it, so I understand that my views are colored through this fact. In my fandom I have made a lot of comments in frustration. I have called for the head of the football coach, probably to soon, and I have thrown my hands up in …

A week ago Duke sat 3-4 in the ACC, after a demoralizing home collapse to one of the ACC’s most disappointing teams in NC State. There were whispers Duke could end up the wrong side of the bubble with road games against NCAA bubble team Wake Forest, and one of the ACC’s better teams Notre …

As I sit here trying to digest another blow out loss, this time by 25 to Louisville, I am at a loss for words. The season started with such hope and aspirations for year 5 of the Mark Gottfried era. NC State had a consensus Top 5 NBA lottery pick in Dennis Smith coming in. …

Good afternoon, Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) basketball fans. Raise your hand if you had Georgia Tech with ACC men’s hoops wins vs. North Carolina, Florida State, and Notre Dame – unless you were the most homer Georgia Tech fan in the world, you didn’t have this at all. I myself had Georgia Tech at 14th …

The ACC has released their football schedule for 2017, and I have some gripes. Don’t worry there are some things I like, but in this piece it is the gripes. 1. Louisville/Clemson and FSU/Miami on the same date (September 16, 2017) I have a big problem with this one. The ACC was the country’s top …
