The Good Lesson Learned Florida State was on the road late against an inferior opponent and struggling. We’d seen this story before against NC State, when Florida State inexplicably lost 17-16 in Raleigh. Now they were in Blacksburg blowing another double digit second half. The only difference is that FSU bent and bent, but didn’t …

Look who made NBC’s must follow College Basketball Directory…
The College Basketball season started Friday. There are no moral victories but Maryland taking Kentucky down to the wire has to be encouraging to Terp fans. Not so much for Florida State who lost at home to South Alabama. Virginia without Mike Scott looks like a lower division ACC team after losing to George Mason. …

Should the Miami Hurricanes self-impose a bowl ban?
Since we’re all filling out ballots and voting today, I’ve got a poll you can vote on. There’s a little less at stake here than choosing the leader of the free world, but hey I think the results will still be interesting. Last Thursday the Miami Hurricanes indicated there was a possibility they may self-impose …

My 1 hour BCS Computer Ranking versus the “expert” BCS Rankings.
In this really so difficult? On and on debate and after debate. Complicated computer algorithms that don’t seem to make any sense. In about 45 minutes I came up with my own computer rankings, that you could argue are as accurate as computer poll we use. It may even need a little tweaking, but remember …

ACC Week 10 awards: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.
The Good No Clemsoning in 2012 The inexplicable road loss won’t be happening for Clemson this year. This offense is putting up points like pinball machine, and is getting better and better each week. They are getting up early on opponents like tonight leading Duke 42-17 at the half before winning 56-20. Ok Easy prediction, …

Quick impressions of Miami’s win over Virginia Tech.
Just a short post tonight after watching Miami’s 30-12 victory over Virginia Tech. Quick name a can’t playmaker on Virginia Tech’s team? Can’t name one? Neither can I. QB Logan Thomas has some raw ability, but is inconsistent at best. RB J.C Coleman has some speed, but is not a game changer. The Hokies stand at 4-5 …

Now let’s look at the Clemson Tiger fantasy scenario… Am I talking about Clemson in the national title? No, way too many things have to happen to get Clemson from their 13th position …

The Fantasy BCS scenario for Florida State.
The latest BCS scenarios have Florida State at 9. Now in all likelihood Florida State will end up in the Orange Bowl, but I’m calling this fantasy scenario but with a twist of realism, where FSU gets in the national title game. Chances are really slim I know that, but lets see what has to …

ACC Week 9 awards: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.
The Good Carry the Banner There are 2 good football teams in the ACC. Florida State (8-1, 4-1) and Clemson (7-1, 4-1) are so far way the best teams in the ACC it isn’t even close. Yes I know NC State tripped up FSU at home, but the Wolfpack have proven themselves incapable of taking …

Worst ACC Division since expansion – 2006 Atlantic, 2012 Coastal or another year?
I saw this discussion on my twitter timeline @TalkinACCSports since expansion which ACC division was the worst top to bottom? It seems the comparison was between the 2006 Atlantic and this year’s ACC Coastal. So I checked the the ACC year by year since expansion… This goes back to 2005 and frankly I’m not even sure it’s close. …
